new cpu

[Burnedice25]

hi, I've just only recently built my computer with these specs:

 

4GBs DDR3

Q6600

MSI GTX 1050Ti

 

and I've seen when playing games (mostly War Thunder) if the screen has too much on it I get MAJOR FPS drops, along with only managing 30-40 FPS anyway. after lowering the video settings to low I've discovered that it is a CPU bottlenech and i need an upgrade. it needs to meet the meet the following points:

 

1. can play games at 60FPS

2. can last next 5 years

3. CPU and MOBO (i'm guessing i need a new one) have to be under $150 AUD 

4. needs to support DDR3

 

cheers

I'd just upgrade the RAM to 8Gb first and see if that helps.

What is your current cpu?

USD prices

$80 pentium g4560 is also on sale a lot, my friend picked up for only 50 bucks.

$52 (on sale rn) ASRock - B250M Pro4 Micro ATX LGA1151 is also a great MOBO for the price

This is a low end game, it should work with q6600 and its a walk in the park for 1050ti.

You may want to upgrade the memory first to 8gb.

 

Or upgrade to FX system:
