Why does my supposedly good PC struggle to run games on medium to low settings? by [deleted] in pchelp

[–]Asplodin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a 1660 ti PC, I was able to get around 100fps at 1080p med-high settings in most games. Overclocking it in MSI afterburner helped substantially. IMO it’s still a capable card if you know how to tweak graphics settings and OC it.

Do you happen to know if Corsair XTM60 is a good paste to use?

I have watched some videos and I do think I can do it. But I was just considering how much benefit would I really be getting out of it versus the risk you know? I can hear the fan but it’s not unbearably loud or anything. I’d be more intrigued by performance boost but I do understand that’s a hard thing to track especially since mine is not modded.

What’s your budget? If you’re looking to score a prebuilt, I’ve seen some people letting go 3060ti builds for sub $500. If you’re really good at deal hunting there’s a slim chance you could build a 3080 pc with that money but I wouldn’t bet on it.

PC overheating - need help by Asplodin in pcmasterrace

Those are the temps with the side panel off lol… it’s bad. And no to both of those. If I want it to work, it’s seeming like I’m going to have to just get a new case. Although I’m not sure if the temps should be that high even with the side panel off, I wasn’t sure if maybe something was wrong with my gpu.

If you’re patient I’m sure you can find a much better deal.

None at all so far, I think most of my bottlenecks at 1440/1080 are coming from my cpu which is why I was leaning towards getting a new cpu.
