[Drooz]

So I have the following build
PC Specs :
CPU : Intel I5 3570K 3.4 GHz Up To 3.8 Running @ 4.1
CPU Cooler : Cooler Master: Seidon 120V
Motherboard : Gigabyte Z77-D3H
RAM : 16GB Kingston DDR 3
Storage : 1- Seagate 1TB SSHD Hybrid Drive 2- WD 500GB Blue
GPU : Single Sapphire R9 380 Nitro 4GB OC

So the question do i need to build a new pc or just upgrade gpu or something else
I was planning to build new pc but my cpu is running @4.1 cool in summer where here it is 31 outside so it is a bit hot. Im having good gpu but any suggestions ?

Well, do you feel it's not doing what you want? Is there some games/app that doesn't work as it should!?

If it ain't broke don't fix it!

Your system is still a capable gaming machine for 1080p. So unless you are moving to a better monitor, or need a PC for more demanding tasks, then what you have will suffice.

What keith said. For more gaming performance, just upgrading the GPU should be sufficient, the 3570K should still be more than capable.

I would just start with a new GPU. Your cpu really isn't all that far behind the curve.

Nothing is broken but I was think if i need to plan for build or upgrade since I will be using my pc in Andriod studio and some gaming heavy gaming. Any idea what gpu would fit ?

you can always give a 1070 ti/1080 a try.

what res is your monitor? If it's 1080p/60hz a GTX1060 6gb or RX580 would be fine, and get you Ultra/High settings in nearly all games. They would be well balanced with your system.

Either of those cards will give nearly double the performance of the R9 380, game dependent.

 

[logainofhades]

I would say a 1070ti would be a great choice, that would last you quite some time, assuming 1080p gaming.

Yes i am gaming on 1080 but im planning to upgrade 144 ghz i dont the rez tho

You'd only need an upgrade if you plan to get the high FPS for 144Hz @ 1080p, or else if you were planning on moving your resolution up to a 2K+ monitor.

If you plan on upgrading to a 2K monitor, then you could test AMD VSR and upscale your monitor res to 2560x1440 and see how your FPS is. If it struggles on the titles you play, then consider a GPU upgrade first.
