[SOLVED] i5 with GTX1060

[gino12234]

So, since i just bought my friend's previous PC since he bought a new one. So I received and here are the specifications that he gave me

• Specification •
CPU : Intel i5-3470 3.60 GHz •
MB : Huananzhi B75 Socket 1155 •
RAM : DDR3 8GB (4x2) Bus 1600 •
GPU : GTX1060 3GB •
SSD : 240GB •
PSU : 500W

Will this computer run games like GTA V, Valorant (high settings), Warzone, Apex or Fortnite at high settings?

The CPU will be the limiting factor, but it should be sufficient for the games you list, provided you keep your expectations realistic.

A Huananzhi B75 could be interesting, it's a cheap Chinese board that will be no-frills, but with a 3470, it should be fine... Nothing exceptional.

Which "500W" PSU do you have?

Not sure what it is, but it has a big "V6" text on it

I think it is very difficult to run. Maybe you can lower your graphics settings in gaming to make games run more smoothly. But you can't enjoy it too much.

The GTX1060 is a fine card, but the 3 GB variants were a bit more limited for something like GTA5. Perhaps adjust quality/texture goals down somewhat to keep FPS higher, if needed.

In this case we have the CPU bottlenecking the 1060 and since it is 3GB your only options are 1080p at medium to high settings with some AA and what not. 😲☮🤷‍♀️
