so, my current system is
a10-5800k OC to 4.4ghz
gigabyte g1 gaming a88x
8gb Corsair vengeance
and a gtx 960 2gb.
and my setup is 1080p ultrawide
what I want to ask is 960 2gb still can handle the current game at least medium settings at 2560x1080 with an upgrade on a CPU? I mean high is nice, but medium is enough for me with smooth frame time. what I notice is that CPU bottleneck on old a10. with 100% CPU utilization and the GPU rarely reach 90% and the game is always stuttering. consistency really matters to me than higher frame rate. I rather running 60fps at 14ms frame time than 100+fps with up and down all the time.
I'm planning using the ryzen 2600x and hopefully b450 for the motherboard because I'm using this for content creation also for gaming. I was going to purchase the upgrade around June or August and later upgrade the GPU to 1060 6gb. what are you think about this and what you suggest should I do. should I wait, or just pull the trigger.
