Hello
If any one could help with advice, on the cheapest way to update my vibox pc. I would be really greatful. Thanks
I don’t really know much about computer. I installed, Nvidia Gforce GTX 1060 3GB.
(Bios)
Set the integrated graphics to force, set the uma frame buffer size to 512M and then in the engine control centre, I enabled AMD Radeon dual graphics.
Installed all drives for GTX 1060.
All installed and working but slowly and lags. I’ve been adviced that it is because my CPU is crap and I need to upgrade the CPU.
I honestly haven’t got a clue, I would be gratefully for any advice thank you..
From what I have researched online. I would require? (GIGABYTE Motherboards and CPU Combos) to upgrade core i5 or i7 standards. (unsure if that’s correct).
System information
AMD A8-6600K APU with Radeo
610F31h
3894.66MHz
99.85MHz
81.92 MB

You are supposed to deactivate/disable integrated graphics when using dedicated GPU.
Thanks for the reply CountMike.

Yes, I'd recommend you upgrade your CPU. I'd go with either:

R5 2600X
https://www.amazon.com/AMD-Ryzen-Pr...x&qid=1550502378&s=gateway&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1

R7 2700X
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07B428M7...&pd_rd_r=c1a8fa1e-338e-11e9-b385-1de323ee2e58

i5 9600k
https://www.amazon.com/Intel-i5-960...=i5+9600k&qid=1550502499&s=electronics&sr=1-3

B&HPhotoVideo is a reliable seller and offers less than the prices on Amazon or Newegg, if you're comfortable using it head on there.

How to disable integrated graphics:

START > Control Panel > System > Select the "Hardware" tab > Device Manager > Display Adapters. Right click on the listed display (common is the intel integrated graphics accelerator) and select DISABLE. Do not select uninstall as this may cause further problems.
