Finding a GPU that's not a GT1030 will increase your fps.

 

Turning off hyperthreading will most likely just reduce fps by introducing more stuttering as 4 thread cpus are a bottleneck in newer titles when the only redeeming quality of the older i7's still is that they had hyperthreading.

Do you have any other reccommendations on improving fps without graphic card upgrade?! I have a 60 hertz monitor. Most of my games reach 60 fps at 1080p. I mainly have issues with Jedi Fallen Order which I get 30 fps at 1080 or 45-60 fps at 720p. My OS is on the ssd and games on sata harddrive. I do not expect a high increase in performance my moving the files to the ssd.

Lower resolution to 720p or set resolution scaling to 50% or between 50 to 100%. 

 

Because assuming you have any decent PSU. You might be able to gain performance and money by flipping the gt 1030 for a hd 7950/7970.

There are fringe cases in which certain games don’t play nicely with hyperthreading or simultaneous multithreading. In those cases, maybe, but by far, you’re GPU limited, guaranteed.

The power supply will only support up to Geforce Gt 1650 that only uses power from the PCI Express slot.

I mean, if you have the money for a gtx 1650. Might want to get a PSU+GPU instead to allow for more akd better options. 

 

Unless you are stuck with a proprietary connector.

My system is a Ciara Discover. The PSU is standard with the prebuild system. I would prefer to improve performance with my current setup. If I would spend money on a PSU and GPU, it would be better to purchase a new system!! I only have issues with one game. Beyond that, I can obtain suficient performance. I would like to squeeze more fps as it.
