Hey
Could someone give me some advice on upgrading my PC?
My Goal: stable 60fps/1080p gaming in all/most games
Of current games: DayZ Standalone (currently getting like 20-30fps…, yeah I know it’s Alpha and whatnot), Squad, GTA V (currently getting 40-60fps but with fps drops and stuttering) and Fallout 4
Future games: at least BF1, but I would like this upgrade to last me 3-4 years (60fps/1080p gaming in mind with most games)
Budget: whatever it takes (60fps/1080p, high settings, will last me for 2+ years without further upgrades)
Current specs:
Mobo: sabertooth990fx-r2.0, am3+, 990FX, DDR3, Crossfire
CPU: AMD FX8350, AM3+, 4Ghz, 8 core with aftermarket cooler (Arctic cooling Freezer A30)
Hardrive: Western Digital 500gb Caviar Blue , SATA III, 7200RPM, 16MB
Powersupply: Silverstone 500w, strider essential-230, atx2.3, 80 Plus
Memory: Kingston HyperX 2x4GB, DDR3 1600 MHz, CL9
GPU: ASUS NVidia GeForce gtx660 direct cu II OC, 2GB GDDR5
My thougths:
-would like to go intel for CPU (DayZ and Arma III is a fucking nightmare with AyyMD...)
oooor would upgrading to a better AMD CPU help in games like DayZ?
then i wouldn have to buy a new motherboard.
-Nvidia 1070 (how good a processor must i get to not create a bottleneck?
-More RAM (8gb more, so upgrade to 16) to battle memoryleak issues and stutter in
GTA V?
- i have also thought about getting a SSD, but im guessing WIN10 will go apeshit and
demand a new license?
Thanks in advance for any help/advice
