Hey guys, I have recently upgraded my GPU to a 1660 super from a rx 580. When upgrading I ran DDU, installed new drivers, and launched a game. When I got into rust I was getting worse performance than my old rx 580, at first I thought this could be a bottleneck but looking at usage my cpu was around 30-40 while the gpu was around 20-30, temps on gpu never passed 50 and the cpu never passed 50 either, any ideas? Specs: Amd Ryzen 5 2600 MSI A320M-A Gtx 1660S 16gb 3000mhz ddr4 750w thermaltake bronze 250gb samsung ssd 1tb seagate hdd (by the way by worse preformance I am talking 40-50fps on lowest settings 720p, I have friends that have the same setup that get 130-140 on 1080 medium)

I am looking into a graphics card for around $130 but i am deciding between a used 970 or 980 or new rx 460. Which is better to get because they are around the same price.

Ok thanks!

I am thinking of getting led fans and led strips for my computer but i need extra molex connectors. Will they be unreliable even if i get high quality ones? I would be using multiple attacked together but it seems like that would not be too good for the psu and whats plugged into them.

Yeah thats the one, Thanks!

Do you know if the the CORSAIR CX Series CX450 450W 80 PLUS Bronze Power Supply is a good psu?

I am thinking about a corsair grey label psu but they have a bad reputation so what is the BEST IN QUALLITY in the 500w area?

The reason for that board being overpriced compared to others is onboard ac wifi.

But the price difference is not worth the 2fps for saving $10 at max

Boards that support the Pentium are more expensive and end up being equivalent to i3

I have a $175 budget for a ultrawide or 2 monitors in my $175 price range i will put up another $25 if its a really good monitor(s)

Gotta stick to $500 but that cpu and gpu combo seems really unbalanced

Amazon , i dont have computer shops on island i live on oahu

Yeah b250 motherboards are expensive though with the wifi chips and stuff

Its also the same price with the extra motherboard cost so im going to stick i3

I dont know why but i just want an i3 for some reason. But i might look into pentiums

Would it be worth it to save the extra money in the long run for the 1060?

I am looking at a EVGA GTX 1060 3gb and a EVGA GTX 1050ti SC 4gb. The 1050ti is $50 cheaper but has more vram why is the gtx 1060 better or more expensive even though it has less vram.

I found a used 980 for $132 on ebay used so i might look into 980s

I am currently considering a 1050ti sc from evga but was wondering if there was something else in the same price range that delivers better performance.

reusing a 1tb hard drive

What about coolermaster elite or elite v2?

I am reusing a 1tb hdd for storage. What psu do you reccomend?

For me its pcpartpicker? Whats it for you Fixed it sorry about that
