What do you think of the PC upgrade?
So I have a GTX 1050 Ti, an i7 8700, 32 GB DDR4 RAM, and I'm planning on upgrading to the RX 6600. Is this a good upgrade for 1080p?

I'm currently viewing my RAM using CPU-Z. I showed it to the KV. He said it's too little. I get 1000 MHz even though I have 32GB RAM on 7 58003XD.

It's not a problem for me, but I would like to know the reason. I have an integrated and an external GPU on my laptop (i7-11800h + 3060 notebook). It's actually configured to run all calculations on the 3060, and you can also check this using the Nvidia app. But according to Task Manager, the…
Recently, when I was in Task Manager, I noticed that my GPU, or graphics card, is always over 70% usage and never goes below 70%. I don't know if it's been like this since the beginning because, as I said, I only noticed it recently. I haven't changed any settings or anything; everything is just…
Hello, I noticed that my graphics card (RX 5700 XT) has two connectors (image attached). Should I connect the second connector as well? What's it for? Kind regards
First of all, my specs:Mainboard: b450m-k So, my boyfriend offered me a Ryzen 7 5700g. He replaced the CPU because his PC kept shutting down after a while, but he didn't know what was wrong, so he couldn't tell me whether it was the 5700g. He wanted to sell it, so I installed it in…
Come on to the games you want to play. With many current titles, 8GB VRAM is no longer sufficient
There I have actually informed all the games I have run well with 8gb I should have written in 👍
Well, since RX 6600 now costs almost 220€, I can’t recommend it anymore. I’d wait a few more weeks. At CES 2025 (07.01), AMD & Nvidia will introduce their new models. Especially at AMD I expect a certain price slip here soon. For a similar money (approximately 220-230€), you get the RX 7600, which is about 25-30% faster than an RX 6600. So if you’re up with the only 8GB Vram, this would be the better choice.
The CPU Bottleneck should be still negligible at GPU Intensive Games. For CPU Intensive Titles, you should think about a quick upgrade.
I’m probably not going to access the new gpus as the probably “too much” for my applications are the RX 6600 will reach for the first time, which is probably also needed because you can already save 40-60€ but I understand that you can definitely get something better for the money
For about 150€ you can naturally add the RX 6600. But I would take one that has at least 6-12 months remaining warranty. (Manufacturers give 3 years). So you’re still relatively safe. Completely without guarantee, it would not be worth the part just 50€ savings. First of all, because you can get an RX 6700XT for about 190-220€, depending on the offer situation, which would be good in your upgraded PC thanks to even more performance & 12GB Vram.
3 years are a big difference I think I should think about it again
Buy a card from 2021. Whether this is a good idea in the long term is sometimes put there. The upgrade itself will remember.
OK,danke👍
The CPU is a bit slow, but only from the graphics performance, it is a clear difference, despite any bottleneck.
Yes I definitely need to upgrade the CPU but first I will get clear with it 👍
15.9% Bottleneck hurts a bit
That’s not true, this bottleneck calculator is never quite right if you have 20% bottleneck in this computer, you should think about it, at 0-5% you know it’s going well, at 10-17 you should look at benchmarks, that’s what I’ve done, the bottleneck is actually just about 57% and so I can live
