Hi,

Recently got given a friends old PC in a trade for some other bits an pieces.
I don't know much about this stuff but it seems to be really struggling where it shouldn't an making a lot of games no fun to play. For instance I play a lot of XCOM2 but on this it's stuttering, graphics are turned down all the way and its still jerky and slow.
I'll put my specs down below, I'd love some advice on what's holding the system back and/or what needs to be changed.

GPU - GTX 1060 3GB
Processor - Intel Core I5-6500 3.2GHz
RAM - 8Gb (single stick) of Kingston DDR4
Motherboard - H110M PRO-VD Plus
Storage - 120GB Kingston SSD and 1Tb HDD
