need to upgrade my pc what should i upgrade?

Post by TheBigLez »

hey guys i'm having bad fps in the rF races and i'm wanting to upgrade my pc so i can run smooth fps with a full gate, here is my current pc -

CPU Type
Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4570 CPU @ 3.20GHz

System Memory
8 GB

Graphics Chipset
AMD Radeon HD 7700 Series (Memory Size 1024)

what should i get to upgrade it i have no clue when it comes to pc stuff so some help would be appreciated, i'm just tired of having bad fps and playing on 1280x726 and i can barely see the ground texture lol :)

Thanks!

RAM is okay, CPU is good so that leaves you with a new graphics card ;) Which ever you buy depends on your budget, but a popular one has been GTX970 for Mx Sim, where I guess now it'd be GTX1070 as that's the successor of GTX970.

I run a 960 2gb and can run my graphics maxed with 512x512 with 40 man gate online and it never drops below 111 fps. Just to give you an idea on how the 970 would perform as its better than the 960. Maybe could save yourself money with the 970.

How do u not dip below 111? I had the MSI GTX960 Gaming card and even when I dropped my graphics, I would be getting 80-90FPS. Even with my 980. I get the medium res tracks and drop my graphics to 60/6 and 70, and still 70-90 FPS. Idk how you got those frames with a 960
