[SOLVED] phenom ii x4 955 + Sapphire RX 570 + 4GB DDR3 RAM ok for gaming?

[unreal2010]

Hi, as mentioned Is this setup enough to play games of 2018-19 at 1080p high settings. Not looking for very high , just 60+ fps, will it do :

Asus M5a88v Evo ( AM3+ , can't support Ryzen 🙁 ---> Working Fine
Phenom ii x4 955 (3.2 Ghz) ---> Working Fine
212 X cpu cooler ---> Working Fine
2x2GB DDR3 1333 RAM ---> Working Fine
Sapphire RX 570 4GB ------> Yet to order
TX650M PSU ------> Yet to order
250Gb SSD + 500GB HDD ---> Working Fine
G413 keyboard ---> Working Fine

Also please suggest a good cheap wired Gaming Mouse.
Please don't suggest FX 8350, updating 8 years old system in budget & would like to save some bucks for a future Ryzen built.

Do let me know what you guys think.

You really need 8GB of RAM for modern gaming. The parts you chose would be fine. The CPU will of course hold back performance, but like you said I would save for a new Ryzen or Intel build.

I'm using the Logitech G403 Prodigy, but this one should be okay if you want cheaper. Mouse: Logitech - G203 Prodigy Wired Optical Mouse ($28.82 @ Amazon)

Thanks for the reply man. I am also searching for DDR3 1333 kingston CL9 2x2GB modules, as I already have those 2x2GB. I know ram upgrade would be a + . For now I bought a new PSU TX650M + RX 570 4GB. PSU started giving trouble, well no complaints after 8 years usage. I think it will be jussst ok for gaming for 8 year old system. Hopefully it will last some more time, few more years. Then I will go for ryzen & new motherboard as well. Going for G90, read some good reviews 4 it.
Thanks again mate.

Like you are trying to do, it's best to match RAM perfectly when adding to existing RAM. But if you can't find it, then I would even go so far as to buy a 2x4GB kit of matching RAM to use by itself. DDR3 should be cheap enough, especially on eBay.
