Rx480 on 2560x1080?

[ColdLatte]

Hello, i am planing to build a PC and this is what i came up with!

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/KVNv2R

I am not certain if the CPU and GPU can run games like Dota2, Battlefield 4, Overwatch, CounterStrike GO on solid 50-60 fps

If you have any suggestions please tell me

The RX 480 can handle all those games quite well on 2560x1080, provided it's paired with a good CPU. Might have to turn down a couple settings on BF4 to guarantee solid FPS though.

 

However, the Athlon CPU you listed will be a bottleneck. You'll still be able to do what you want, but be prepared to make some compromises in terms of visual quality in some games, especially BF4.

the 480 can run those games at 1440p and higher , so 1080 ultrawide shud be no problem whatsoever , even in more demanding  games like GTA 5

I was gonna nitpick you for saying 1080p even though the p doesn't mean anything in terms of monitor resolution, but you didn't put it there. Dammit

It's good, but here's an actual upgrade path:

So you think replacing the AMD Athlon x4 845 with a i36100 would give better performance?Thanks btw for everyones replies

well the AMD has no upgrade path - it's the highest end chip on that architecture. 

the i3 can actually upgrade to i5 or i7 if you get some more money down the track. 

i'd suggest changing out the mobo on that machine with a z series mobo and ddr4, since it opens up more upgrades in the future.

There is a compatibility note saying - The G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-2133 Memory operating voltage of 1.5V exceeds the Intel Skylake CPU recommended maximum of 1.35V+5% (1.417V). This memory module may run at a reduced clock rate to meet the 1.35V voltage recommendation, or may require running at a voltage greater than the Intel recommended maximum.

I said that changing the mobo and ram out was a good idea. This is because the processor only supports DDR3L (Low power) RAM, and running DDR3 on this setup can cause damage to the CPU over time. This does not happen with DDR4, so go for a board that supports DDR4.
