Posted January 1 Hi, so I have Asus strix gtx 1060 6gb paired with i5-6600 and 16gb ddr4 2133mhz ram, I have stripped down version of windows(atlas os) and my CS2 is at lowest settings possible for 1080p, i get like 70fps and huge drops. I was wondering how much should I actually get? i think my card is thermal throttling as it goes up to 80°C with fans at 90-100%, I am going to repaste it but I wanted to know how much fps can I expect? Thank you shahzeb specs: strix gtx 1060 6gb oc i5-6600 Asus b150m.2 550w 250gb Sata ssd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted January 1 Techpowerup included a 1060 6GB in their test results and it got 106 fps @ 1080p / max settings, but the test CPU was a 13900K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, if you have a PC case with poor ventilation, new thermal paste can only do so much. 12 minutes ago, Sheybi said: i5-6600 and 16gb ddr4 2133mhz ram As a modern game, CS2 is a lot more impacted by this. A much older, slower CPU with much older, slower ram. Also, is it 1x16GB or 2x8GB? 2x8 would be better, but still, DDR4 2133 offers pretty low bandwidth, and you are limited to this speed regardless because of the CPU and motherboard. Also, are your graphics drivers up to date?

It’s 2x8 and I’m not sure but ventilation, I do have 6 fans, 3 intake and 3 exhaust, intake at the front and exhaust at top and rear, cpu keeps cool at 40-50 because of the direct airflow not so sure about gpu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they are up to date, what do you think my upgrade plan should be excluding the graphic card, I have a Corsair VS550 and a hp x27q(1440p) I want to upgrade my CPU,ram and motherboard and maybe psu.

If you want to go the cost effective route, a used B450 motherboard and Ryzen 5 3600 are a great value, alongside some ddr4 3200 I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B Primary PC: i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.
