r/pcupgrade

What gpu should i upgrade to? I have 5700xt now. lots of random crashes. I have a 5800x, 64gb ram. 144hz monitor. I can put 200dollars. I just play csgo2, poe2, and some 1080p games is it worth upgrade?

I want to upgrade a PC I got from a friend who passed away so it can run Windows 11. He was great with this stuff, but I'm decidedly not.

I think my motherboard is outdated. It's an H110M-A. I was told that Rufus can bypass the current barriers, since upgrading my motherboard alone won't work. But I was also told that I can try upgrading the motherboard and cpu. Current CPU is Intel(R) Core i5-6500.

I recently heard from an acquaintance that it's best to upgrade where I can anyways, since when another update eventually comes around Rufus might not be able to handle it. Not sure how true that is, though.

What motherboard and cpu upgrades would I need?

Is it worth upgrading strix 450 gaming 2 ? For a 570x or b550? 2x32gb, 5700xt

I've had my PC for a few years now since my last upgrade, and I'm starting to think it might be time to replace or upgrade some of the components.

I've included a link to my current PC specs below. I'd really appreciate some advice on which parts might need upgrading soon, what would be worth replacing first, and any specific recommendations you have.

My goal is to keep playing new games at high settings with good performance. I'm not looking to push everything to ultra insane or achieve the absolute best performance possible, but I'd like to keep my PC running well while I have some money available to put towards upgrades.

I'd appreciate any suggestions on what I should prioritise, what can probably last a bit longer, and any specific suggestions.

Thank you!

Hey everyone, I’m currently running into a CPU bottleneck and minor stutters when trying to push high framerates on my 1080p 300Hz monitor. My current specs: - CPU: Intel Core i5-12400 - GPU: NVIDIA RTX 5070 - Motherboard: H610M (DDR4) - RAM: 16GB (2x8GB) 3200MHz DDR4 - Monitor: 1080p 300Hz I mostly play competitive FPS games like CS2, Valorant, Fortnite, PUBG, and COD where I want high 1% lows and maximum stable FPS. I have a budget of around ₹30,000 (~$350 USD) to upgrade. My plan: 1. Update the H610 BIOS and drop in an **i5-13600KF** (or i5-14600K if priced similarly). 2. Upgrade/expand RAM to 32GB. Questions: 1. Will my entry-level H610M motherboard throttle an i5-13600KF/14600K due to VRM limits, or should I save some budget to swap the motherboard out as well? 2. Are there better alternatives within a ₹30k budget in India to fix 1080p stutters and maximize a 300Hz display? Appreciate any advice!

Hello, noticing my pc is struggling a bit more with 1440p and was looking to upgrade my Nvidia rtx 3060 ti to a AMD Radeon RX7800XT 16gb

Rest of my pc specs:
AMD ryzen 5 5600 6 core
16gb ram
650w power supply.

Does this seem like a decent step forward or is there an equivalent Nvidia?

Thanks

I'm currently running:

Intel I9 10900kf, Asus Prime Z590-p mobo, Asus rtx 3080 (10gb vram), 32 gb ddr4, 850w psu.

I have it connected to my TV, so 4k 60hz

Would it be feasible to upgrade to a 5080, or should I just make a new build considering the older mobo and ram? I was also looking at 4080s but pricing is so fucked rn that a 5080 is only a couple hundred more.

Hi! I´ve just bought a Monitor Alienware AW3225QF, I want games like Battlefield 6 to be playable with decent fps (hopefully 140 - 244 fps) with high quality graphics.

Which GPU should I get without getting too bottlenecked by the i7-10700k? 5060 or something cheaper?

Setup

GeForce RTX 3060 Ti

32 Gb Ram 3600 MHz

i7-10700K 3.80GHz

z490A Pro

Thanks!

Hello.

I got a pre-built PC 2 years ago for Christmas. Recently I switched from my old 1080p monitor to 1440p one, and didn't have any problems for now. What I noticed later is that 8GB VRAM ain't much for new games, but I rarely buy one. Since hardware gets more and more expensive, I thought about some upgrades that could be worth investing in for the future, before it becomes inaccessible.

I'm no expert in hardware, so that's why I came here. I've been recently looking for higher VRAM GPU, took interest in RTX 4070. One more thing: I'm not the type of guy who can't live without ultra+ settings, path tracing and DLSS with 120+FPS

Build:

- MB: TUF Gaming A520M-PLUS

- CPU: Ryzen 5 5500

- GPU: RTX 4060

- HDD: Samsung SSD 980 1TB

- RAM: 32GB DDR4

I’m looking for some advice on upgrading my GPU and would appreciate some suggestions. My current PC has a Ryzen 5 5600GT, ASRock A520M-HDV motherboard, 32GB DDR4-3200 RAM, a Patriot P300 1TB NVMe SSD, and I’m currently using the integrated AMD Radeon Graphics. My monitor is an MSI G255F running at 1080p 180Hz, and I mainly play CS2 competitively. My GPU budget is around $300, and I’m looking for something that would work well with my system and give me good FPS at 1080p. I’ve been considering the Intel Arc B580 12GB, but I’m open to other suggestions. I’ll also include my PSU model/wattage if needed. What GPUs would you recommend for this setup?

I have i914900ks
msi z790 gaming plus wifi
5200mhz cl38 16x 2
850 w psu
4060ti

I play cpu bounded games Like Fivem or Fortnite / Valorant

Currently i Have some Budget to buy something

1. Zowie 400hz

2. 6000mhz Cl 30 16 x 2

3. 5070 Ti

I need recommendations Which can improve my responsiveness and Help me to be Better player

About 5 years ago, I bought a prebuilt iBUYPOWER with specs:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X, 6 cores / 12 threads, 3.7 GHz base, up to 4.65 GHz

GPU: ASRock AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT, 8 GB GDDR6

RAM: 16 GB TeamGroup DDR4, dual-channel, 2 × 8 GB

Primary storage: WD Blue SN570 500 GB NVMe SSD

Secondary storage: Seagate Barracuda ST1000DM010 1 TB, 7200 RPM SATA HDD

It's starting to show its age on some newer games with High/Ultra graphics settings, with lags or slowness. Is there any upgrading to be done, or should I replace the whole thing?

Updating to add: budget is up to $1000.

I was thinking of upgrading my intel arc a380 to arc B580 as well as upgrading the PSU.

this is my current set up:

• GPU: Intel Arc A380 — 6 GB GDDR6
• RAM: 16 GB DDR4 (15.9 GB usable)
• Storage: 512 GB SSD (Windows reports ~477 GB usable)
• Motherboard: Gigabyte A520M DS3H AC
• PSU: GAMDIAS AURA GP550 — 550W

Gpu: Rx 9070 XT 16GB Vram

Ram: 32 GB DDR5 6000

MotherBoard: Gigabyte B650 EAGLE AX

Cpu: Ryzen 5 7700 700zł Max
