Hello,

I would like to make an hardware upgrade to my pc mainly to increase my FPS. I was thinking about buying a similar ram slot, but im not sure that would do any help.
Im pretty open to solutions, though i would prefer not to buy a new graphics card. :)

Also when i am tabbing from Desktop to CSGO it is struggling and my browser and other programs occasionally stop responding. Could this be due to lack of ram?

Im playing CS GO with an average fps on 230.
I live in Denmark

This is my current hardware:
GPU: ASUS 6GB GTX 1060 OC
CPU: INTEL i5-6402P
RAM: 8GB 2133MHZ CORSAIR VENGEANCE DDR4
Motherboard: ASUS B250M-K
Power supply: Coolermaster 500W 80+

Hope i did not forget to mention anything
Thanks in advance

You did not mention your storage type(s) SSD? HDD? Monitor?
You get 230FPS on CS:GO.. and what would be your goal to be, and what is your budget ?


you could jump to a GTX 1080
you could add 8gb Ram, though unsure it would do anything for your FPS

"Buying a similar ram slot"? What does that mean? 8gb of ram is far more than enough for CSGO, adding more ram will not do a thing unless you are using all of what you have if that's what you mean.

Do you have a 240hz monitor? If not I don't understand why you want to get higher framerates in CSGO, you wont be able to see it. Your monitor is more than likely too slow to display that high of a framerate, higher framrates would likely just introduce more screen tearing and do nothing else.

If you are playing CSGO in full screen mode then try to alt+tab out it will likely cause issues, put the game in borderless windowed mode if you like to alt+tab out often. Borderless windowed mode can affect performance in some games however, not sure about CSGO.

More FPS will do absolutely nothing for you besides increasing the number in the corner of your screen. Like I said your monitor is incapable of displaying 230fps or even close to that most likely.

There is no way your eye would ever tell the difference between 100 or 500 FPS. Besides, as Dunlop said, and as I was getting to before - your monitor will limit your FPS.

So, if you have a 60Hz monitor - it will only display 60FPS, 120Hz - will only display 120FPS, and so on. If I were you, I would check to see if you're even displaying more than 120 FPS. I have a feeling that if you were using a monitor over 144Hz, you would already know this though.

I played one of my friends computer who did around 700 fps. I swear i could feel a difference but it might have been something else.
But im looking to increase the computers perfomance in general.
