CPU:AMD FX 6100
GPU:GeForce GT 1030 2GB ( OC )
RAM:4 GB DDR3
Windows 10 Enterprise 64 bit

I bought this GPU because i was lagging and i thought it will be good, but im lagging so much (like 1-10 fps sometimes and freezings etc.). Is it caused of my 4 GB RAM or from something else? Should I upgrade my ram?

Hi staurosstoikos,

We can determine what is causing your problem without more info.

What you could do is download MSI afterburner (for monitoring temps, CPU/GPU and ram usage)
Disable V Sync, then launch some game like fornite and after the issue occurs, go to the monitoring and check what's wrong.

IF the ram usage is below 95%, you have to buy another one.

IF the CPU usage is high (at 90-100%) while the GPU usage is below 80% ==> CPU bottleneck and you have to upgrade your CPU.

IF the temps are beyond 90°C-95°C you have to upgrade your cooling capability or reapply thermanl paste or improve case airflow.

Let us know about it.

Hi,

I have the ASUS GPU Tweak II on my PC that came with my gpu. Should i delete it and download MSI Afterburner because i think they are kinda the same and how can I see my RAM-CPU-GPU usage while playing?
