Can you help me with some simple upgrades?

[Orven]

Hi everyone, I would like to have some suggestions if you don't mind. So, this is the specs of my computer.

 

AMD a10 7860k

Gigabyte f2a68hm-s1

Corsair Vengeance ddr3 1333mhz

NVIDIA Geforce GT 730

 

I just want to improve my fps in Dota 2 even in low settings. Approximately, it has max of 80fps and it drops when clashing in the game. I didn't upgrade this since I am using Chrome and Dota 2 only. If it is possible, can it have some minor upgrades that is not that much? thanks

If all you care about is FPS in Dota 2, a GT 1030 is a great option for a graphics card and second hand they're way cheap (sometimes under 40 bucks) Just make sure you get the GDDR5 variant and not the DDR4 variant. Just keep in mind if there's many other games you want to play the 1030 isn't necessarily a beast. I'd really consider swapping out that GT 730, it's not a good card in all honesty.

RX570 or 580 (used) get the 8gb version if possible.

You'll be running dota at 1080p high settings 60FPS+ guaranteed.

Find a used RX 570 for under $100, you should be able to play high settings at 60 FPS easily.

Thank you so much, I just don't know about some bottleneck stuffs. So GT1030, I will try to find some used here in the philippines. Yeah GT730 is not good, it doesn't help at all honestly.

I'll definitely search it now. Thank you so much! I really don't want to get a new set or upgrade it max because I don't do much, I just work online and play dota 2. Should I upgrade my ram also? or that is fine?

Nooo... Don't get 1030, it's a rubbish card. As i said 570 or 580, it should be abundance even in Philippines.

You do have coin miners there right?

I was going to ask APU, should be overall better than his current system

 

but APU is beyond $200 i would think, for mobo cpu and ram

 

his CPU should be fine for DOTA...? not too familiar with the game but it should be fine, old game

I completely agree...the 1030 is a pile of horse manure. Heck, the igpu in a Ryzen 5 3400g performs about the same and is a much better value.

Okay noted, Yeah but so hard to find sellers. I'll search it and see how it goes. The miner card is the one without display ports?

No, i'm not refering a miner edition card spesifically. Don't get that, as they usually have only 1 output (or none).

I'm just saying when there's miners, you should get these cards for cheap, as mining is dead, so they will dump all their cards to the market.

RX cards are undervalued because of them.

Get either of these, RX470/480/570/580 or if you can't RX560.

1050ti is also good but the GTX used price is not that low.

[Orven]

How about if I get a brand new, maybe in time if I have the funds, I'll get new mobo, cpu and ram.https://www.lazada.com.ph/products/asus-video-card-rx-570-4gb-256bit-gddr5-graphics-cards-for-amd-rx-500-series-vga-cards-rx570-used-displayport-hdmi-dvi-580-i1066150594-s3627962351.html?spm=a2o4l.searchlist.list.11.317be6fbC9zXOC&search=1 This is what I found in easy access online store in PH

[SupaKomputa]

Well it's your choice, RX570 can be as low as $80 in the used market.

Oh okay, now I understand. Most of the people here especially me will wait until our unit is dead in that way it is worth it haha. The 1050ti is always available here, does that work with my CPU? Sorry I have a lot of questions.

it works perfectly

[SupaKomputa]

Well if you have the money for RX570, go for it.

I use to have 1050ti, i play at around 40-50 fps.

On RX580 i can get up to 60-80 fps, just to give you a picture.

Yes it will work with your CPU, all you need is replace the 730.

You may not get the most out of the GPU but it will be much better than having a  730.

Hmm thank you for that. Definitely I will search for the RX570 and if I purchase one, I will update you guys! I was shy posting here in the forum because I have low end pc. People here are friendly and helpful!
