Hello fellow hardware geeks,
I am currently using my pc a lot and I love it to bits. Recently I have started to play some games and livestream them. Some games are giving me troubles and it isn't bitrate or network issues on my end in the slightest.
My current rig holds an Nvidia GTX 970, an Intel Core i5 4690k at stock clock 3.5 GHz, and 8GB of 1600MHz ADATA RAM with a 600 watt PSU from Corsair and a Zalman Air cooler. Storage units are a 1TB HDD and a 128GB SSD.
I also have external storage, but I need to get it cleaned as I recently removed a virus and said storage was attached.
My question to you is what would you upgrade first, and do you have recommendations as to what I should upgrade to? I don't have a ton to spend currently, but I do want to consider my options for the future.
I usually play Arma III, Skyrim, Garry's Mod, Fallout Series, and Rust and stream, but sometimes the first 2 and Rust can be a slag for the PC.
