So you guys say I should buy more RAM ? (Can I just overclock my RAM in the Bios `?)

 

What about the CPU ? What's your recommendation for the LGA 1150 Socket ?

Get a 4770k/4790k and 16 gigs of high speed ram

Good morning fellas,

 

A friend and I are trying to upgrade (or for him build) our PC's.

 

I currently run my I5 4670k (aftermarket air cooler) @ 4.2 GHz.

Plus 8GB of DDR3 RAM (1333 Mhz).

GA-Z87X-D3H Motherboard.

ASUS GTX 1060 6GB.

500 GB SSD + 1TB WD Black HDD.

 

So the problem is... even on 1080p I can't play BF1 stutter free.

Do I need an upgrade ?

If yes what do you recommend ?

 

We both thought of building ourselves real manly-man-machines this time: (our thoughts)

- I7 8700K

- 16GB DDR4 RAM

- Motherbooard(?)

- GTX 1070/80 TI  (?)

- Storage individually

 

 

 

I'd be happy if you guys could help us out :)

 

Greetings, 

Adil

Hmm 1333mhz ram seems really slow. Try like above 2000 mhz bevore you swap anything. The i5 plus a 1060 should do well...

I'd have thought you'd be able to run Battlefield stutter free on the original setup

 

Yeah the slow ram could be an issue

The 1060 6GB can run BF1 at ultra 1080p no problem. BF1 doesn't like 4c/4t CPUs so you might be cheaper off getting a 4770K or 4790K instead. When I upgraded from an i5-4460 to a Xeon E3-1241v3 (4770 equivalent) all stutters went away pretty much.

PC Specs - AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D - MSI B550M Mortar - 32GB Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR4-3600 @ CL16 - ASRock RX7800XT - 660p 1TBGB & Crucial P5 1TB - Fractal Define Mini C - CM V750v2 - Windows 11 Pro
