bottlenecking Bottleneck, please find it..

[fastbacca]

I am currently a new pc gamer in my first year still learning the craft of the trade for pc gaming and upgrading I would really appreciate some help figuring out what is bottlenecking my pc I will list the specs down below. :3

GPU: GeForce GTX 1060 3GB CPU: AMD FX(tm)-6300 Six-Core Processor Memory: 8 GB RAM

The main reason why I am doing this is that when I play rust I always take half an hour to load it unless I am overclocking (also I get 50fps)

if you can find a what I need to replace that would be nice :3

Willing to spend up to $300 to fix my problem but I would prefer to spend around 150-200

Get an ssd. That cpu is hopeless, cant upgrade it.

the FX 6300 and the HDD are the problem

Your CPU and storage are the issues. You could get a 250gb SSD for pretty cheap (like $50-$60) or a 500gb for around $90. A CPU upgrade would cost more though... how much are you willing to spend?

I'd say the processor especially if it's not OC-ed and probably that mechanical hard drive you're using. 

 

Disclaimer: I have no experience with "newish" AMD stuff. Before Ryzen last AMD CPU I assembled was from the AM2 era.

 

Any other games you play where you see some performance issues?

 

If you plan to upgrade state your budget. So how much are you willing to spend?

 

I'm assuming your in North America -- probably the U.S. of A. -- since you bought this iBUYPOWER PC from Best Buy?

 

Also any future games you want to play?

 

Depending on your answers, you can most certainly keep using the 1060 at least.

 

Also ther's another user here planning to upgrade and he has similar PC specs as yours. You might want to check that out as well:

you CPU is a problem and you need to get an ssd

With just a 1060 3 Gb, the bottleneck is the GPU. Get a SSD and another 8 Gb of memory, but that is the end of that platform.  Can look to OC the CPU a little, but it's not going to change much.

 

Rust is a badly optimized game that'll bring a 1080 Ti to a crawl, so that isn't too surprising.

your cpu is legit garbage. Any FX series CPU is trash. Get a ryzen 2200g for $100, and a matching mobo and ram. Good for 2-4 years
