Looking at some quick specs online, you’ll likely want to replace your current motherboard and cpu, as your cpu already appears to be a bottle neck for your current gpu, which will only become more apparent if you go to a 1660 or 2070.croc25 wrote: ↑Sun Oct 09, 2022 8:55 am Hello,
My name is William and I need some advice on what graphics card to buy that would be compatible with my present Motherboard, Cpu etc.
Currently medium is all about my Gtx960 can muster.
Have been looking at a Gtx1660s/ti or a Gtx2070 of some kind but really don't have a clue as to what would be the best to get.
The budget is about £300 ish.
Processor AMD Athlon(tm) X4 860K Quad Core Processor, 3700 Mhz, 2 Core(s), 4 Logical Processor(s)
Baseboard Gigabyte F2A68HM-HD2
Installed Physical Memory (RAM) 8.00 GB
Name NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960
Any help would be really gratefully received as It's making me pull my hair out.
Thank you.

Thanks, L2K, I have kinda decided that I am going to go with the Motherboard/CPU upgrade now and will possibly go for the Gigabyte B550 AORUS PRO AC ATX Motherboard for AMD AM4 CPUs So then which means a Ryzen 5 5600X CPU or similar.
I am also thinking about an RX6650XT eagle 8gb graphics card unless anyone has got some other suggestions.

Re: Small Guide on PC's
I can not really agree to that cuz a prebuilt with good parts and everything you need will cost around $4,000 in the usa. If you build it, you can do the same for $2,000-$3000 with parts from places like micro center and best buy. Not trying to say any one is qrong cuz your prices might be different depending on your country. Happy gaming!

Is anybody reading this thread? ![Razz :P](./images/smilies/icon_razz.gif)
- Rtx 3060 Ti dual oc v2 8gb is still the one to go for even after they launched the 12gb versions? The BUS width is 256Bit vs the 12GB 192bit width.
From what ive seen onm youtube its averaging 20fps or so higher than the 12gb..
Im playing at 4k high settings with a asus 2060 rtx dual oc 6gb now and fs22 seems to sit around 50-80fps.. Even RDR2 sits around 60 i belive, runs smooth on high+ settiogs.
Still on a OG ryzen 7 1700 overclocked to its boost speed, 3,5ghz or so![Mr. Green :mrgreen:](./images/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif)
To make it simple we can say that the 8gb version costs 6300NOK and the 12Gb cost 4700NOK (divide by 10 to get USD..)

Re: Small Guide on PC's
Well I can tell you this,
I went with a Ryzen 5600X CPU,
NZXT N7 B550 motherboard,
16GB DDr4 3200 memory,
1TB M.2 SSD
Gigabyte P750GM V2 PSU
and a Gigabyte Radeon RX6700XT 12gb GDDR6 memory
and in a Deepcool CK550 case.
I still have to get a better Monitor but can play on Very high settings for the first time and the speed of the computer is a revelation.
I am super pleased with how this performs. Beth thing I did was watch jaytwocents and pccentric on YouTube. They build a lot of different systems.

Re: Small Guide on PC's
I used PC parts picker and it works great; it helps with compatibility and also helps you find the best price for said item because it is linked to all of the sites that sell said item. It's also where the majority of the inventory is at the moment, and it's much faster than searching on your own.L2K Perma wrote: ↑Thu Jun 27, 2019 3:05 am Seems this topic comes up about every week or two so figured I'd make a post specifically about it.

Re: Small Guide on PC's
Hey everyone. A few years ago I put together a ghetto PC which has recently failed to start. It gets as far as the Windows self repair nonsense, so I guess it's booting ok, but I haven't been able to get anywhere with it. It's always been a little clunky so I'm thinking it may be time to move on anyway. My only real criteria at the time was "at least as good as an Xbox".
So currently;
Ex-business Dell Optiplex 7020
www.amazon.co.uk/Dell-OptiPlex-Desktop- ... B09GPLGG7K
GTX 970
2x 4GB Ram
beQuiet 500W PSU (the only thing I got brand new)
Some random HDD
Looking at partpicker.com, I was thinking something along the lines of their "modest AMD build"
https://pcpartpicker.com/guide/mtFfrH/m ... ming-build
Thoughts on how these may compare? TBH I've pretty much forgotten what I had learned last time around.
Thanks!
