Hi,i'm doing a pc build and i'm wondering if the cpu i'm going to add (Athlon x4 750k) will record games like Payday heist 2,Minecraft w/ Shaders,and TF2 with high settings on all games without any stuttering or lag

My new pc specs:
Mobo:Gigabyte GA-F2A55M-DS2
Graphics Card:Geforce GT 610(Salvaged going to upgrade)
RAM:6 Gb 1330 mhz

More about : athlon 750k good heavy tasks

Those are horrible specs, sorry. That graphics card is weaker I think than even the IGP of a 7850k. The 750k is a budget chip. It is at the very bottom of the recommended gaming CPU lists. Get a proper system, if you want to record games.

Yeah that is a terrible system for gaming and recording. Gaming would be one thing, but recording also isn't gona work to well at high settings at 1080P.

Your going to want a a10-6800K at min. for what your doing plus a dgpu to play at high settings.

Your best option would be to save up for the cheapest i3 haswell you can buy (presumably that would be the i3 4130) get a b85 motherboard and get a r7 250X minimum.

i dont think that you are going to be able to run those games on "high"settings before you record them... I have the 750k in my second PC, but i didnt make any recording but i can run every game on high/ultra with my radeon 7850 OC.

The A10 6800k wouldn't be any better than a 750k/760k.....

thing is that i already bought the mobo...and my budget was 300$ i just salvaged a gt 610 out of my old pc and the 6 gb from my old computer as well im thinking of upgrading the graphics to a gtx 760

R9 270 is about as high as you want to go with a 750k, and even then you need to overclock the 750k to at least 4.2ghz to alleviate bottlenecks.

your gpu sucks and would bottleneck horribly. The 750k is pretty decent on a budget when paired with a good gpu. My bro has an a10 5800k paired with a gtx 660ti and his cpu is essentially your cpu with the integrated graphics, and he can play anything about as good as my pc can as long as it's not cpu intensive stuff.


Stick to 720p low settings, it would be lucky to do that currently tbh. I've looked up reviews of the better gt630 before and even it really struggled to even do stuff on 720p low settings.

hit up ebay and get an r9 270 for like 100bucks or an hd7770 for cheap or something. 8gb ram is ideal but 6gb isn't the end of the world
