Is this a good build to run Counter Strike over 130 FPS

ShadowStar_ · Jun 10, 2015

My friend asked me if this build can run Witcher 3, GTA V, and Counter Strike Global Offensive over 130 frames per second. Is it possible?

Link to the specs?

He is just upgrading his CPU, graphics card, and his PSU. He is also adding an SSD to his computer. He has 8GB of RAM already already installed

The GPU will cut it close. He will want to probably go up one more step to get a consistent 130FPS.

Make sure his motherboard is a H97 or Z97 or it will not handle the upgrade.

This is what he needs
This will have a large boost in performance over the one you picked.
Changed the CPU to a cheaper equivalent.
Changed the PSU to a better quality one.
Changed the GPU to a better one for the price and for performance.
Changed the SSD to a less outdated one that is better quality.

^Need to make sure his board supports that CPU first. Not all do. What motherboard is he running?

IntelTurtleFan · Jun 12, 2015

Yes. That is why I put in bold letters "Make sure his motherboard is a H97 or Z97 or it will not handle the upgrade."
