Hello internet,
I would like to upgrade to intel. (Specs and details at the bottom)
When playing games I have a consistent variation of problems such as freezes, blue screens and programs not responding.
I have tried a lot of things such as installing the MSI gaming app, updating drivers, checking faulty RAM, decreasing space on my hard drive, checking for hard drive issues, running malware and antivirus scans, looked up tutorials online on how to get the best optimisation for nvidia control panel and reinstalled my graphic drivers using DDU and installing them manually. nothing seemed to worked/still the same. Now it has been more than a year, I have come to the conclusion that my AMD processor is guilty.
I do not want an expensive build, just something with a mediocre improvment.
£500 Max budget.
Specs: (taken from Speccy)
Operating System
Windows 7 Professional 64-bit SP1 - Should I upgrade to windows 10?
CPU
AMD FX-8320 53 °C
Vishera 32nm Technology
RAM
16.0GB Dual-Channel DDR3 (9-9-9-24)
Motherboard
MSI 970 GAMING (MS-7693) (CPU 1) 47 °C
Graphics
Generic Non-PnP Monitor (1920x1080@60Hz)
HE225DPB (1920x1080@60Hz)
4095MB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 (MSI) 59 °C
Storage
931GB Seagate ST1000DM003-1CH162 ATA Device (SATA) 29 °C
1863GB TOSHIBA External USB 3.0 USB Device (USB (SATA))
Optical Drives
No optical disk drives detected
Audio
NVIDIA High Definition Audio
CPU and GPU approximately around 45-60 when playing games.
Thank you for your time!
