How are my specs?

gio_lacson · Jan 22, 2018

Hey guys, I'm sort of new to the PCM and I was wondering if my specs are fine and in any need of an upgrade any time soon. Thanks in advance!

i5 7400 + stock fan
GTX 1060
8 GB RAM
HM110
500 PSU

I'm sure others will suggest a whole new build for you, but my main suggestion is to get a better CPU. With a GTX 1060 I'm going to assume you want to play the latest games, it's fine for that, however the i5-7400 is too slow. You want higher clock speeds, even the 7500 would be better, but if possible, look at getting a 7600.

gio-lacson It depends. What are the top 3 games that you play? Are you playing at 1920 x 1080 resolution (60 FPS) or other? What do you feel is lacking in your gaming experience? If you just want to upgrade, what is your budget, and do you live in the US or another country?

When you come across a game that does not play well for you, that is the time to consider an upgrade.
It may be cpu or gpu or both.

The only games I play at the moment are overwatch and pubg

Ok, it's PUBG that requires a fast CPU. If it's running fine, then that's great, no need to upgrade. However if you're struggling, then a faster CPU would definitely help.
