CPU bottleneck?
Go to solution
Solved by BenoitWW,
your CPU has a AM3 socket.
your cpu definitely needs an upgrade, listed below are 3 CPUs. Your current, a AM3 socket, and a intel budget equivalent
scores on passmark (benchmarking software)
1. Current = X2 235e: 1655
2. AM3 socket = Athlon II X4 640 OEM 3341 (x2.0 performance) - $75
3. Intel upgrade = i3 6100: 5427 (x3.2 performance) - $110
so if you want to build a new system, I would totally recommend the i3 6100. If upgrading your current system, I would get the Athon.
For graphics cards in either system, these 3 cards should be good
RX 460
GTX1050
