Hi

What kinda gpu and cpu would you recommend for a fm2 motherboard. I know its old and a dead socket but I am not going to upgrade enything else ever and I only play csgo, any suggestions?

Currently:
Amd a4 5300
Gt610
12gb ram
450w

Thanks,
Julian

Its a fm2 motherboard from gygabite i dont know what model. But will the gt1030 pair with my amd a4 5300? Or do I really need a better cpu?
 


I've already answered this in your other thread but to see an increase in fps in csgo you'll beed to upgrade your cpu and gpu.

Instead of in investing in new components I say get a used cpu for that board and maybe a used gpu depending on the psu. FM2 has been a dead platform for a while and is in no way worth investing a lot of money into.
However what is the model,name,... of that psu?

Hkc psu isk the model but its a old one, also not planning on replacing that. I think am jus going to buy the gt1030 what do you think?
 


Can you monitor your cpu useage during cs:go? If your cpu is currently running at or near 100% useage a gt 1030 will do basically nothing or very little for you as your cpu will not be able to give it enough data to work with.

oke so I have the gt1030 now and you were totaly right, my excuse. But I will recieve my athlon x4 870k tommorow, will it improve then? because of the bottleneck with my weak cpu currently(amd a4 5300) ?
