2 years before I bought my PC only for development purpose. Recently I really addicted in PUBG mobile game. Now I want to play in PC. But my PC is not good for gaming.

CPU: Intel® Core™ i7-6700 (non K)
Motherboard: Asus B150M-A
RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws V Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 2400
Power Supply: 530W, Thermaltake SE530
Casing: Thermaltake Versa H25
SSD: Crucial MX200, 250GB
HDD: WD 1TB, Caviar Blue
Monitor: Dell P2417 and LG 22MP68VQ-P

What if I buy a GPU (ex: nvidia gtx 1060, 6gb)? would it be enough for PUBG?

Thanks.



 



Well....

You really need a better PSU than what you currently have, something like:

Seasonic Focus Plus 550W
Corsair RMX 550W
EVGA G2 or G3 550W

And MOST all GPU's are weak for PUBG other than the higher end cards starting with the GTX 1070 range.

A GTX 1060 6GB will work if you lower the settings a lot, it's a mid range card.
 
Where did you get this idea? Do you think everyone plays in 4 K or something? :)

I have a GTX 1060 6GB, even with everything set on Ultra, I never drop below 60fps at 1080p, my average is close to about 90, except I turn Vsync on and lower a couple of settings to see the enemy better. The result is my GPU usage is between 50 to 70%

 
Just to back up what I said about the GTX 1060 6GB being enough, I thought I'd take a screenshot. Notice that the GPU is running at 61% with a temperature of 64C and using 3,843MB of VRAM. This is at 1080p everything on Ultra, except shadows which I put on low.

Update, I can't seem to get the full 1080p image to show, so here is the direct link https://i.imgur.com/fuXxZBX.jpg
