There is no escaping the onward, relentless march of technology and the constant drain on the wallet of keeping up, though I have promised myself (again!) that this lot will have to last long enough to see me off! I have been retired on a fixed income for 5 years, so I don't have a lot of money to throw around, but a quick cost/benefit analysis showed the way forward. I had to bite the bullet and get a reasonably priced new platform for the GTX and decided on a Ryzen 5 2600, lightly overclocked by 16%, 16Gb DDR4-2132 RAM and an Asus RoG Strix B-450-F gaming mobo, and quite unnecessarily 2 x Samsung NVmE 500Gb Evo Plus SSD drives, one for the system files and one for Steam. I was in the same position as you until recently, I bought my GTX 1060 to replace a GTX 960, in a system with an AMD FX 6-core CPU, and quickly realised that the CPU and RAM were crippling the GPU, the mobo was only PCI 2, not the PCI 3 slot needed. It has 16GB RAM and I might be able to upgrade my CPU. Originally posted by Anglo_Saxon28:My Gaming PC was custom made back in July 2015. Total Hard Disk Space Available: 1907062 Mb Primary Display Size: 18.78" x 10.55" (21.54" diag)Īudio device: Speakers (VIA High Definition A I don't know about any other opinions, but the NVidia control panel isn't always the best solution for all games, the same with the NVidia Experience being used to optimise games, it doesn't always result in the best looking game or high fps you might expect.ĬPU Brand: AMD FX(tm)-6300 Six-Core ProcessorĬrypto Provider Codes: Supported 311 0x0 0x0 0x0 I use a GTX1060 6Gb at 1920x1200 59Hz over a DisplayPort connection, no overclocking, which gives a reasonable refresh rate of anything from 40 to 70 fps, I use the Shift/Z on-screen frame rate counter, and it does vary a lot, with occasional slowing down to 15 fps for a short period. There are a few threads explaining the basics of setting the GFX up, a comments search should bring them up. The detail settings and anti-aliasing settings make a big difference to the fps, as well as HDR/bloom etc. Have you installed the latest NVidia driver 451.48, from the NVidia website?ĭoes your motherboard support PCI 3.0 for the GFX card to run at full speed, older mother boards are PCI 2.0 or even older, and the PCI slot will bottleneck the GFX performance.Īre you running the game at the native resolution of your monitor, and is the refresh rate of the game and monitor matched, is it using VSync or any proprietary fps matching system?
