Hello there,
Today, I want to ask you some help, because previously, I made 2 topic about my build:
In those topic, many people who answered said that my build was horrible, and I clearly see it. I can barely hold 60 fps at low settings due to the CPU, an Intel® Core™ 4790, paired with my RTX 2060. Indeed, the build is way too minimalist:
Motherboard: ASUS H97-PLUS (able to overclock) -- It doesn't support a better CPU or RAM.
OS: Windows 11 -- Well, don't ask me what did I do, but okay.
CPU: Intel® Core™ i7-4790 -- OK in 2023, but not enough to hold a RTX 2060.
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 2060 -- It's actually the only good thing I got in this computer hopefully.
RAM : G-SKILL 4x4 GB 1600MHz with XMP -- The best I can have, but can't be overclocked due to the CPU. Also, 1600MHz RAM is pretty slow...
Alimentation : FSP HEXA+ 500 MW - It's the strict minimum for my current build. I also heard that 500MW PSUs are often of a low quality.
Screen: ASUS TUF Gaming VG279Q1A (165 Hz, 1920x1080) -- This screen should match well my GPU. I would prefer keeping this screen, mostly because there are integrated crosshairs.
SSD: Samsung 860 EVO -- This disk should be OK. I will probably not use DirectStorage, and boot times aren't very important (Unless if we are talking about 3 minutes).
HDD: WDC WD10EZEX-08M2NA0 1TB -- It's where I put my games. I think I should be still okay to keep it.
Due to this old computer, I can only play in calm in some games, mostly backward-compatibility games. Any other modern titles are hard to play with that build. So, by enjoying the Black Friday, that are nowadays longer, and Chirstmas, I'll like to pass to something not overkill, but for at least playing at 100 FPS stable. I can't get out much money out of my pocket, so I can't test by myself many components, but I have a 650MW PSU in my basement. This should be already something concerning the upgrade. But concerning the rest of the components, I won't able to do this by making me sure there will be as less bottleneck as possible.
Oh, and here are my playing preferances:
Quality: Usually low, but I sometimes accept playing on a high quality (principally in old games).
Games: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ixrckbwb0y3yJOJ1BN51EhZyL6CvaTaO/view?usp=sharing (Sorry if I have to put a link, Tom's Hardware apparently don't allow the names of my games).
Tasks: I make some video editing, recording, and gaming. It can also happens me to use a professional app like Office.
FPS objective: The minimun for feeling good while playing would be 100 FPS stable, but it would be better to go on 165 FPS, like my screen refresh rate.
I hope my informations are as complete as possible. If you have any other question, do not hesitate to react about it.
Best regards,
@Vikko151
