Hi guys,

Currently my computer running with:

1. AMD athlon x2 270

2. 4gb ram

3. Palit Jetstream gtx 970 4gb version

But here the problem is how come my gpu memory load or usage is very low when i playing games, the fps was around 30-40?

Is my cpu not compatible with my gpu?

Any help would be appreciate :)

Your poor little Athlon is bottlenecking that 970 into oblivion...

CPU: INTEL Core i7 4790k @ 4.7Ghz - Cooling: NZXT Kraken X61 - Mobo: Gigabyte Z97X SLI - RAM: 16GB G.Skill Ares 2400mhz - GPU: AMD Sapphire Nitro R9 Fury 4G - Case: Phanteks P350X - PSU: EVGA 750GQ - Storage: WD Black 1TB - Fans: 2x Noctua NF-P14s (Push) / 2x Corsair AF140 (Pull) / 3x Corsair AF120 (Exhaust) - Keyboard: Corsair K70 Cherry MX Red - Mouse: Razer Deathadder Chroma

Bit of an AMD fan I suppose. I don't bias my replies to anything however, I just prefer AMD and their products. Buy whatever the H*CK you want.

Yeah man, you my friend have a crazy bottleneck with that CPU. May be time for an upgrade, the 970 has a good few days left in it though so not all is lost :)

How about i upgrade the athlon to fx 6200?

Would it be better?

An Athlon dual core is going to bottleneck a 970 pretty badly.  Also, what motherboard?  Some older motherboards have issues with new cards.  Even if you can get it to fit there could be a bandwidth issue.  

Mobo that currently im using is Asus M5A78L-M LX V2

Yeah it'd be way better but if you're gonna buy a new FX 6200 that's like $120US so you may as well get a Ryzen 1300X or something, you'll probably need a new mobo anyway
