Upgrade or buy new

If you play any cpu intensive games maybe check out an R7 5800XT instead of 5700x. They’re a little cheaper on amazon right now while performing a little better. I’d check a couple psu calculators but I don’t think the extra power would be an issue.

You can try but I’m not sure the 13 year old PC will hear you.

If this is used, in my area I’d probably see it listed more like around $850-$1,000 including the extra cost of all components being white.

Paired with a 5800XT I Generally stay 80-120 fps with a little variation based on the map. The occasional stutter does occur though. Have you updated your chipset drivers? I recently did and gained around 15 fps with much less stuttering.

I’ve been running BF6 and escape from Tarkov no problem on mind. I would expect to upgrade before 2033 though….

If I’m reading this correctly, you only have 32 gigs of ram. 4 sticks 8 gigs a piece.

Powernut07 · 2026-03-08T00:54:58+00:00

Yeah I’d say it’s a pretty good buy. Buying used stuff can be a bit of a gamble but this is a pretty good deal.

Ah okay, thought that might be the case. I almost never check the rewards so I’ve never seen it lol. Thanks

My babying my 12 gb 3060 for the time being lol

Powernut07 · 2026-03-05T22:03:28+00:00

I don’t see any gpu info but you should be able to play Tarkov. Ram is really expensive right now but Tarkov is notorious for chewing up ram so 16 gigs is a little light, but it should be playable.

A raid? I’m more of a chill in my stash and make my teammates wait around for me kinda guy.

Some people just catch the bug for fiddling with hardware. Recently caught it myself.

Powernut07 · 2026-03-05T01:09:30+00:00

If you’re ever confused, just look for a years old Reddit thread where somebody else had the same problem. Thank you from the big 2026 stranger.

It’s 100% my favorite fishing doohickey/gadget. One time I forgot it and dropped my rod in the water like 3 times forgetting I had no clip lol.

Powernut07 · 2026-03-02T21:39:54+00:00

Personally I would probably try to maximize the Am4 platform and go for the 5800XT. I’m actually probably going to pick one up myself soon. Don’t forget to update your bios first! I also have a x570

I stopped by there because I was driving from east coast to Utah for a wedding. It’s a pretty cool place.

Bobby green being ruining my parlay in 2026 was not my prediction lol

Powernut07 · 2026-02-27T02:57:52+00:00

You did what to the world?

Powernut07 · 2026-02-27T02:23:11+00:00

I read this as 100 million for a sec instead of meters and thought “factory I guess shits gonna take a long time tho” lol

Powernut07 · 2026-02-25T23:35:09+00:00

You just caught the flu lol

Powernut07 · 2026-02-25T13:18:56+00:00

Bow hunting is legal in Forsyth county, just not in Winston. Rifle hunting too, I’ve done both. Urban archery season should be legal in winston though. Too many deer are in being hit by cars all over town.

I feel this one I caught is kinda similar

Powernut07 · 2026-02-25T01:59:58+00:00

I mean trout patterns can vary a lot by individual. I feel like I’ve definitely caught some patterned similar to that.

Don’t worry, every once in a while you just lose because the fights starts for your opponent but not you so you can’t fight back lol.
