Question Gtx1060+ram oc

[Csib1337]

Hey

I Have an asus Gtx1060 3gb and kingston hyper x beast 16gb 1333mhz. Everything is stock.
I5 6600k. Unfortunately my motherboard is not able to oc the CPU but IM looking forward to oc the 1060 and the 16gb kingston. Then next month I will change the motherboard to oc the CPU. Is that possible to oc gpu and rams because sometimes I get fps drops in bf1, pubg, etc. Or Should I wait till the CPU oc. I also gonna change the rams to hyper x fury 1866mhz 16gb. Should I oc to get more stable fps or Should I Just leave it be.

Thanks 4 help.

What resolution are you playing at? If it's 1080p 60hz, and your playing with high in game settings, then the problem is the 3gb of vram, rather than a lack of system ram or speed of ram.

At 1080p those games you mentioned specifically use more ram than 3gbs at that res. So when it maxes out, you get the game stuttering and drop in FPS.

I wouldn't spend the money on a new mobo and ram for your system. It's a bit of a waste. OC'ing your CPU will not help in those games either. You should really consider a platform upgrade. New CPU/RAM/MOBO and save some parts from your current system to get you up and running.

That's most likey GPU usage, as opposed to vram usage. You can set MSI afterbuner OSD to show both GPU usage and vram usage. check it and see.

Indeed, if you have a GTX1070 with 8gb, then it would be a much better performer than the GTX060 3gb.

Yeah I switched to 1070 everything is running smooth

Great, glad it's sorted. The Vram at 3gb on the GTX1060 was holding it back a little.
