i5 6600k + r9 280

[Veverka34]

Hi,
Im going to upgrade my pc (processor, motherboard, ram, case, hdd) this summer and im curious how big change i'll see. I'm heavy csgo player 😀. I have now fx 6300 and i'll get i5 6600k. Will i notice good difference? For example in csgo? I have now very unstable fps from 150-350. Do i need to buy new graphic for csgo? Thank you for any reply and sorry for my english

A processor upgrade to a 6600k should level your stability, it wont increase FPS by that much, but it will help.
Your FPS should be much more stable now, as typically processor upgrades increase minimum frame rates.

Unstable FPS from 150 to 300.... and you do know your monitor can only display 60 FPS, right?

FLS numbers go up and down due to the varying time it takes to draw each frame. That is 100% normal. Every frame shows something different than the frame before and after it. It takes time to pull in the new items, draw the pixels, color them, shade them, do the lighting, and so on. When lots of new objects appear such as when you turn left or right, which brings new objects into view, it takes time to do everything that is needed to get that objewct into the scene. Just stand there, and the frame rates sky rocket because everything is already drawn out in the previous scene, so it is nearly all just copied into the next frame.

The upgrade from AMD FX 6300 to I5-6600K is huge. Unfortunately, you never said what graphic card you have, and that is the part that draws what you see on the screen. So If you have a weak video card like a GTX 750Ti, you might see some small increase. If you have a new AMD RX 480 or even a GTX 1070, your frame rates should sky rocket.

i have 144hz monitor + r9 280 non x

i have 144hz monitor + r9 280 non x

then your monitor can display up to 144 frames per second.

Last time I checked, 150 is more than 144. And so is 300.

I know my monitor can display up to 144 fps.. i know that. I want to have at least 220-230 minimum fps in csgo because i can feel the difference in response time when i have 150 fps/250fps/300fps. Do you think i need better gpu? Csgo is Cpu intensive game.
