Hello,
So I got a used PC for a pretty good deal, and the specs are:
http://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/5219473
(let me know if there are any further specs I can provide)
My problem is that I seem to not be getting the performance I expected. Maybe I don't have in depth knowledge of the hardware.
For CS:GO (lowest settings, 1080p)
Frames: 12722 - Time: 60000ms - Avg: 212.033 - Min: 139 - Max: 287
Note: Increasing quality to maximum gives me 120 fps average which sucks because I got a BenQ 144hz monitor too.
For Rise of the Tomb Raider: (High Settings, 1080p)
Around 70 fps in most areas, but it choked really hard down to 40-50 fps in certain places like Geothermal Valley and The Russian Camp area. Lowering my graphic details did not help much.
---------------------------------------
Seems to me the CPU is bottlenecking the GPU a bit. And the motherboard is pretty outdated too.
On top of this my CPU temperatures are apparently really high, I'm not sure. I get 58 deg on IDLE and 85 deg on full load playing ROTR. Perhaps a new heatsink with new thermal paste will help? Its running on the stock cooler.
Is my rig performing as it should and I need to upgrade? Or is there something wrong otherwise?
Thanks for help.
