user a i5-2400 is like $20.
Another 4GB RAM stick is $10.
A fucking good GPU is $50-100.
And a SSD is $20-80 for 120 to 1TB (SU650 120GB to SU800 1TB).

What do you keep on the 1024x768 display?

would I need a new mother board for the cpu since thats what seems like the hang up I had according to the friend who built this out of spare parts back in like 2015, only thing I ever upgraded was the gpu before

Not him but doesnt matter if the resolution is shit having a second monitor is always good.

Bigger numbers are better.

>would I need a new mother board for the cpu
No, the I5-2400 is a sandy bridge CPU, the G620 is too, both use the same socket.
Both use the same socket but performance difference is huge, see: cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Pentium-G620-vs-Intel-Core-i5-2400/m2636vs803

And when it comes to the GPU you can either get a new GPU like the GTX 1660Ti($260) or a RX 570($120-170).
Or if you have money troubles a used R9 270 or 270X($40-70), any of them would be a huge upgrade from your current GPU.

When it comes to the RAM any DDR3 1600MHz still will work, look for 12800U in the name, avoid "R" RAM since its for servers.

I have a computer with a 1050 Ti but it's not for gaming.

recording software, calculators, task managers, sometimes other tabs

usually stays off until I need it tho
it was a prebuilt
ram speed is as high as it goes on the mobo

I have a GTX 970 and want to upgrade around when the new consoles come out. Wondering if I should go AMD or Nvidia next time, kinda only care about raw horsepower and not meme features. Also think an i7 4790k will last me another GPU upgrade? Not sure how much resolution effects CPU performance, I plan on going 1440p next time, maybe some 4K since my TV is hooked to the PC too.

Hate that speccy thinks my gorsair memegeance is unknown, Just upgraded my cpu ram and mobo from a FX-9370 it's nice to be able to run anything I want and not worry about stuttering. GPU will be upgraded sooner or later I don't think I wanna pull the trigger on a 2070 only to have it explode in a month.

Speccy hasnt been upgraded since 2016 when Avast bought the company behind it and fired all the devs that were unrelated to CCleaner.

Your SSD is a little toasty.

Ah, makes sense also doesn't say my CPU its a 8700k if it isn't obvious enough.

I'm not sure why, Sometimes it caps out at 50 as well and has been doing that for a while now

Welcome to plastic SSDs, my BX500 runs at 60°C.

Would 8gb of ram bottleneck me in any games? DDR4 if that makes a difference.

Just upgraded the mobo, saving for a 2080 or something now.

What's the smaller HDD for?

Probably not, but you want 16 anyway.

The Sandisk SSD Plus uses a plastic case, reason why it gets so hot.
All SSDs are hot by default but mid and high end 2.5" SSDs use the case as a huge heatsink for the controller which is what gets hot in them.
860 EVO, MX500, WD SSDs, etc use the case as heatsink, see pic.

did a bit of research before buying the stuff and not really.
But yeah if you can get 16gb eventually, do it.

16GB is so cheap these days you might as well just get it. You don't know when Samsung will start price fixing again.

I use my old Lynnfield computer as a storage server now.

It was a beast in its day, though. Core i5 750, Radeon HD 6870, shit was hype.

Buy a used haswell computer for $80 and move the parts there.

1050 isn't a terrible card.

It's trivial to OC a Vega 56 beyond stock Vega 64 performance, even with an undervolt. Real world performance if you're actually smart would be closer to this:

anandtech.com/bench/product/2151?vs=2143

In fact, with a Vega 56, it'll actually sometimes run very slightly better at the same mem clock speeds, since Vega 56's mem timings are tighter.

gamersnexus.net/guides/3072-vega-56-vs-vega-64-at-same-clocks-part-2-revisit

GamersNexus used PowerPlay Tables to get a 56 beating a stock 2070 in most titles, but you can get close enough to that without doing something quite as reckless.

It's getting a bit old now but it still does fine.

I'm thinking of upgrading to 4k next year and upgrading my GPU. Not sure though. It depends on how the GPUs available then perform at 4k.

The first pc I built had that same CPU. I was so excited when I put it together and booted it up.

I went from an old Dell that had a Pentium 4, 1GB RAM, Geforce 6800, with a 1024X768 monitor to an i5 750, 4GB RAM, Radeon HD 5850, and a 1080p monitor. To say the performance leap was massive would be an understatement.

I feel you, it's really starting to bottleneck these days. Thinking about a rebuild.

Its not Speccy but ASUS motherboards have a shitty sensor that loves to die because they cheap out in them.

I am not the type of man to completely fill a chassis with fans. I prefer to have a CPU running at a reasonable level where I can just air cool it within standard spec (at worst with an aftermarket fin cooler).

>getting mad at a Kaby Lake i7 and a 2080

You have some high standards.

Its an HP laptop, there is no such thing as proper cooling or good heatsinks.
That model uses the keyboard as a heatsink, Yes, welcome to HP.

Nope, even with old motherboards (Haswell ones which are properly supported by speccy) this happens.
The 114/115°C comes from the sensor dying and the motherboard reporting the maximum possible temperature, other sensors report 127°C for example.

My only method of 'cooling' it I can afford is putting it in a more open space.

Is it true that having two ram sticks is better than having just a single channel? I hear things about less efficiency and limiting bus width with just a single stick, but I have to wonder if it isn't overblown.

Check your motherboard's manual and make sure, if you have 2 sticks, that they're in the right slots for dual-channel to work. Also, if your sticks you bought were advertised with speeds above 2400MHz (you have Ryzen, so you should have sticks with a higher speed) then go into your mobo settings and enable XMP.

user you just need a GPU upgrade.

If you're using Ryzen with only a single stick of RAM you are completely gimping your performance. Even if you don't notice it, you're losing at least 30% of your performance. Even more since you're running your mem stick at a lower clock speed.

Yeah, you're good except for that 660. Get a 1660 Ti.

Get another RAM stick so you get Dual channel if you have one.

Also if you're thinking about 1440p/60hz or 1080p/240hz, don't. 1080p->1440p and 60hz->144hz are both monumental upgrades, while 1440p->4k and 144hz->240hz are minor upgrades. Your 1070 can definitely handle 1440p/100fps+ with setting tinkering so don't handicap yourself and settle for a lower quality monitor or go full retard and go all in on only resolution/framerate.

Sorry m8, that's what happens when AMD forces Intel to finally add moar cores, and devs start actually expecting folks to have a minimum of 6.

Yeah but when that things launches it will be worth a fucking kidney here in the third world

Hopefully you got it used. A $275 6700k is the same as a $139 R5 2600 in performance. Unless you exclusively play 1080p, you paid a higher premium for no gain.

1080 for $70 is an amazing deal. That's a solid high-end card for less than a franklin. Your friend could easily flip that card on Ebay for $350+.

1050ti has like 50% the tdp. if you only play like dota/overwatch or something like that and want a quiet and silent card its not a bad choice.

Why? and what did you upgrade from user?

I can cook shit on it

what the actual fuck are you cooling that ryzen with that it's running that hot

it's not fx, they don't run noticeably hot!

I could've settled in for a 1080 for a little more cash and gotten nearly 1.5 times the benchmark.

speccy has issues giving temps for some ryzen, this is the actual temp

The only reason to get a 1050Ti is if you have a SFF or 240W office PC.
Otherwise its pointless since 25W more is nothing.

its 75w vs 120w (in theory more like 140w) actually but i will agree the 1050ti is very overpriced
