    Here is a straight forward answer for you cause I see no others, You are not being bottlenecked by the I5, you could even get a more powerful gpu and still be fine, I used a 3rd gen I5 with a GTX 1070 and it worked fine, in some games my I5 bottlenecked it, but in most it worked great!! As long as you don't have any problems with playing games you want to, no need to upgrade, I still run 3rd gen intel cpus because they still work great, but you know, that's just my opinion

    The 20 watts shouldn't matter

    It is very hard to mount lol, I have been building for years and it took me 20 minutes to put it on XD

    https://pcpartpicker.com/b/YYxG3C What I can come up with, wait to see if someone else replies as they may be able to do better, but this would do good

    Alright, awesome, thanks so much

    Cooler is HyperMaster 212 Evo Motherboard is asus p8z77-v lx And core voltage is default And load temps, under a full load it hits around 80 degrees C

    I mostly do gaming and some streaming here and there, but I have a friend offering me an I7 3770 for 65 bucks and I know that's a good deal for the cpu so thought I'd see if it's worth the money, and no it's not super overclocked I can only get it to 3.6 before it becomes unstable
  8. ComputerNerdDude158
    Hello, yes an upgrade would still be worth it, I use an I5 3570k with an rx 580 and have no bottlenecks unless it is a very cpu heavy game, so you're good with that cpu for another maybe 2 or 3 years, 4th gen I7's still do amazing for gaming and maybe even some streaming here and there, so yeah go ahead and upgrade your gpu, what's your budget for the upgrade? I can recommend a gpu

    So I wanted to know if an I7 3770 will be an upgrade, downgrade, or about the same as an I5 3570K? Thanks for any answers

    I'd sell for like 40 or 50 us dollars, which is around 45 euros

    Bro ignore people telling you to just "get a new pc" its not always that easy guys, I used to have a i5 2500, it'll make you happy! Much better than the i3 you have, https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i5-2500-vs-Intel-Core-i3-2100/m517vsm41 to show how much better, and I upgraded from a i3 3225 which is around the same as your i3, to a 2500, and it was sooooo much better in games!

    It's a bit overpriced if you ask me, but it would play games I use a 3rd gen i5 to play games with a rx 560 and I get 60 on most every game, and the 580 will make it better then mine, so its a bit overpriced, but it would game
  13. ComputerNerdDude158
    You should be mostly good, any cpu heavy stuff you will see a bottneck, but most of the time you shouldn't have any problems
  14. ComputerNerdDude158
    gt 710 would suggest 10/10 best for your build....jk I would ACTUALLY suggest a rx 570
  15. ComputerNerdDude158
    I would go with a rx 580, as 590 isn't much better, and 1660 ti isn't worth it for the price (if you ask me) and your psu should be fine!
  16. ComputerNerdDude158
    I didn't think they made those

    https://www.ebay.com/itm/Genuine-HP-NVIDIA-Geforce-GTX-1060-3GB-GDDR5-P-N-909616-001/133093570617?hash=item1efcfeb839%3Ag%3AiNgAAOSwXwtdD4l8&LH_RPA=1 Is this a low profile GTX 1060??
  18. ComputerNerdDude158
    I would change cpu for a ryzen 3 to get better price
  19. ComputerNerdDude158
    It'll work great for watching videos bro!
  20. ComputerNerdDude158
    Just use a rx 580, rx 590 is basically a 580 but overclocked, and from 1050 to rx 580 you will see a increase in performance

    Hey I have been using a I5 3570k for a good while now, nothing is wrong with it, but I plan to start streaming soon (nothing crazy, just like Minecraft CsGo and other lighter games) and I want to know should I upgrade to a i7 3rd gen to get it to stream better? I know it won't be insanely better as it would still be 4 cores, but those 4 more threads would help. Is it worth it?
  22. ComputerNerdDude158
    I have a I5 3570k, rx 560, 12 gb ram, and a 600 watt power supply, I plan on doing 1080p gaming, I want to know what card I should get? I am willing to buy used! And I am on a budget of 200ish US dollars
  23. ComputerNerdDude158
    Well I'm only wanting this to use for mostly gaming for about a year, cause I had a good system, but the mb died so I just want something till I can do a ryzen build with my gtx 1070, and the pc I have now is a sff with a 240 watt psu so I wanted something (other than the gt 1030) to put in it till then
  24. ComputerNerdDude158
    Okay awesome! Thanks bro! I may go ahead and buy the gpu, and if it doesn't work with that psu, I can use it in another system!
  25. ComputerNerdDude158
    Oops...I meant would it burn the psu out, put in the wrong word lol
