Q bout Up my rig i5-750+asrock p55pro/usb2

[TheCumi1945]

hi,im new here,

yes,litteraly registered 1 minutes ago,

and yes,i just know linus has a forum just 5 minutes ago,

so i apologize if i post in wrong location,

 

i have rig:

MotherBoard :ASrock p55pro/usb2 ( LGA1156,PCI-e2.0x16 )

PSU               :ThermalTake LitePower ATX12v 2.3 ( 600watt )

Proc              :intel i5-750 @2.66GHZ 8MB SmartCache

RAM              :Avexir 2x4GB 800mhz/1600

VGA               :Digital Alliance ATI HD5830

run on win7x64

 

so here's my questions,

if i UP my VGA will it bottleneck CPU?

so if it will,how bout OC my Proc?

if i OC my proc,i will need new cooling,what r ur suggestion?

(Add:i alr slight OC my proc to 160Bclk x 17 (or 2.7 GHZ) and Ram to 1600 (MAX default 1333))

and it alr reach TJmax when i play PS3 Emulator.

 

back to up my VGA:

so after conduct a research i get to like this 2:

RX 580 or Nvidia GTX 1060 6gb?

so what ur sugestion? brand? other VGA tipe?

trouble detected? PCI-e version bottleneck maybe? anything that comes into ur mind i will gratefull,

 

in my MB website it says:

OS

- Microsoft^® Windows^® 7 / 7 64-bit / Vista™ / Vista™ 64-bit / XP / XP 64-bit compliant

 

lets say that i install win10,can it run?

anyone experience on this?

welcome to the forums! overclocking your gpu should have little or no affect in terms of bottlenecking. if you upgrade to a 580 or 1060 you will definitely cause a bottleneck. You could always upgrade to a first gen intel i7 or start a new build. if you want to upgrade your gpu i would upgrade it to like a gtx 750 ti or 760, or if you want to go new theres always the gt 1030 or the rx 460. you dont list your cpu cooler so i cant help with the cpu oc. I hope i helped!

but someone said my proc can OCed to 4.0ghz (its legend tho,so i dont expect that high)

lets say i can reach 3.6Ghz will it still bottleneck my GPU? and why?

and lets say i want to get to 3.6ghz like many others did,what cooler i probably need? liq? or fan?

and what brand?

any advice?

thx btw for the suggestion.

Like said above, if you go that new cards, it will bottleneck. But 750Ti, 660/Ti or 680 (Nvidia cards) would still be fine. Though I agree on focusing with CPU/platform upgrade.

 

You can do mild OC with stock cooler, but you get much further with aftermarket. With LGA1156 you can pick anything you like. It uses same mounting as all other LGA115x.

Yes, it would still bottleneck newer cards. OC will bring it close or same level with next gen CPUs (counted from current) So Sandy Bridge and maybe Ivy Bridge i5's. I really recommend saving for platform upgrade and getting used 680 for cheap.

 

All cooling uses fans. It between air and water. And water is waste of money when you aren't going for higher grade OC. Its still unkown how high you can get. All CPUs are different. And older mobos might not handle OCing that well.

as i search about 750TI i find that it was G-sync ready.i curious is there any ATI vga thats equal to 750TI performance but freesync ready?

im thinking about slapping 2 of them instead and use freesync to handle the possible screen tearing,can it? as i watch linus video, freesync seems more promising,and what about crossfire?

 

and btw im curios about this Motherboard,in the ASrock web it said

Slots

- 1 x PCI Express 2.0 x16 slot (at x16 mode)
- 1 x PCI Express 2.0 x16 slot (at x4 mode, 2.5GT/s)
- 2 x PCI Express 2.0 x1 slots (2.5GT/s)
- 2 x PCI slots
- Supports ATI™ CrossFireX™ and Quad CrossFireX™

 

why it didnt said 2x pci-e 2.0x16 instead? is that 2nd slot different than the other one?

can i slap crossfire with same type VGA into it?

 

im actually thinking to up my windows to windows 10 for that dx 12

to spread evenly the work of each processor.

and btw im aiming that rx580 and 1060 for vulkan™ API

I would not try crossfire especially with budget graphics cards. To be fair once your cpu is overclocked to say 3.6 ghz it will still be pretty capable. An amd card which is similar in performance to the 750 ti is something like an rx 460 (the 460 is still a bit faster though). If you want here is a video of a build which has the same cpu but with a gtx 1060, as you can see thanks to the overclock the i5 can still do pretty well with faster graphics cards such as a 580 or 1060.

wow thx mate this video is very helpfull almost 90% answer my question,i got lucky u found me,and point out to this guy video.

im still looking around for cooling tho,some said noctua nh d15 is good,

as i can see it seems that it was released around 3 years ago,so i guess "maybe" something out there hv better perfomance,

so im still looking around and try to catch up,

and i dont know if this noctua was enough to get me to 3.6 to 4.0 ghz performance..

do you hv any suggestion?
