Well, sorry for the month late response. I'm guessing you've already figured out your issue at this point, but in the slim but possible case you're still waiting on an answer it simply means your GPU can't output this many frames. You can try overclocking it to try and squeeze a few more frames...

You only see a 30% overall CPU usage and 12% GPU while playing? This seems off. Are you tabbing out of your game before checking? If so it's because it stops rendering as you do so. Try setting it to Windowed, hop into a community server and check percentages then. If they stay that way, make...

As I was saying, you would have to make sure this frequency is compatible with your board, as it didn't specify on the ASUS website. A bit of digging up should do, but either way switching to the fastest compatible RAM will help slightly with performance, but don't expect massive changes, as...

If the CPU does seem to cause more issues than you had hoped, faster RAM can help with performance, slightly. I would imagine you are still using DDR3 RAM. In the case you want an extra few frames, upgrading to 2400Mhz modules, granted yours are slower than the new ones and if they are actually...

At higher framerates, your CPU has to supply every single pre-render of those frames to your GPU. The higher FPS you pump out, the higher your CPU usage will be, as they are working together. Usually CS:GO isn't demanding, but when the output is large enough, it can "clog up" on the CPU side...

A good way to check where the issues lies is by checking your CPU/GPU usage while playing. First off, make sure your FPS is unlocked in CS:GO for optimal results using: fps_max 0 in the console Then open your task manager while playing (if you have 2 monitors put it on the second and keep an eye...

I see. My point still stands, the CPU will not unlock the GPU's full potential (perhaps it's more accurate in that order, and thanks for the correction). Excuse the incorrect explanation, but the result is the same. Best case scenario would be to use some of that budget to align the CPU with a...

Did you mean 3200g? 5200g doesn't exist. I think this decision should be based on wether your current GPU can push out 144FPS to justify the 144hz monitor. What is your current graphics card?

The Ryzen 1600X is the better mutlitasking/workstation CPU. The 9100F is the better gaming CPU. Up to you for whatever you want to you use it for. The 1600X doesn't "need" 3000Mhz. It'll work with anything, but will work better at higher memory speeds. RAM speeds don't affect price that much, so...

I would personnally consider a whole system refresh, as that i7-3770 will struggle keeping up with that GPU a whole lot. You will not be able to push high framerates out of this card, as it will flood your CPU with too many frames, leading to 100% CPU utilization on a lot of games, leaving you...

It's really up to you if you want to try the PSU or not. It could work, but if it's had a lot of dust buildups and if you don't know if its stable, testing it with a multimeter might be a good way to make sure the power delivery is still as intended. If you want to do this, I would recommend you...

Feel free to hit the trophy over my previous answer to close the thread and make sure people find their answer to the same question! And no problem, have a good day and hope your upgrade goes well!

I doubt you will be able to OC to 4.8GHz with temps under 65C considering voltages and temperatures increase exponentially when overclocking. You might be able to reach 4.8GHz, but it will also probably lie somewhere around high 80's to 90's under load. Keep in mind that 90C under load is not...

Any 80+ Bronze or above PSUs from reputable brands are usually considered "reliable", but Gold is usually where people go for the best for your buck. When it comes to PSU's, I recommend sticking to the bigger brands, like EVGA, Corsair, Seasonic, Cooler Master, etc, but even those brand's low...

You basically will never see a significant temperature difference between cores, the package temp. is very representative of your cores temperatures. If those are normal, I would start looking elsewhere right away. Defective memory can cause these issues. As for the PSU, it would usually give...
