Time to upgrade my pc! Help!

[superzheny]

Download afterburner, enable gpu and cpu usage monitoring per core. Watch your cpu usage, if it's very high then u need to upgrade.

CPU usage : max 100% min 85%
GPU usage : max 75% min 40%

You are CPU limited. Time for a new rig or upgrade your CPU to i7-4790.

Is g4560 better or i5-4460?
Because lifeshard g4560 1060gtx can hit constant 180 fps on the same settings as me.

lower fps can die issit?

 

[spblind]

I cant stress enough how important input lag is... its not about lower fps can die or not.
I have a 1070gtx and a 144hz monitor.
I am already setting performance over display.
Everything low... with my setup.. it can easily just rape overwatch. But i just dont understand.

If your rig have these and you ask me to play at a lower fps, will you shiok or jot?

But what you say is right my cpu is bottlenecking and i believe that, i have tried multiple times, being low-ultra settings fps are around the same. Only when i render scale 75% then it will stay constant. I just dno how lifeshard g4560 can get 180 constant on low and a i5-4460 cant.... being or not i have also decided to get a new pc, and use this as 2ndary. With my old 290x

If you do not know how to oc then no point get 8600k but getting 8400 with z board also waste of money if you cannot wait till next year for h/b board. But then I know money is not issue to u...so no point getting i3 8gen also...

But oc is super easy, just get a aio or tower fan cooler for optimal performance. You stay near amk or not? Bring your monitor come my house try lol?

I know how to OC just not planning to because the last time i oc My 290x it crashes alot so no point.. stock is fine, i prefer llonger life span lol

Is the 8700k worth getting?

 

[joshuaho]

Cpu OC and GPU OC is different.. u could actually get the K version, use it at stock till years down the road and when u feel it is getting slower, begin to OC to squeeze every last bit of juice out of the cpu until up lorry..

Depends on ur usage, some people say Pentium is enough, some people say they bought a 2600k and still using to present day, to each their own

If mainly for gaming and not bottlenecking my 1070? Can last till future gpus, budget isnt an option

 

[Hailgod]

if u can oc until u crash means u dont know how to oc properly.

Yeah thats why i dont plan on OCing cause i dont know how to oc properly. But nowadays the high end parts seems to gel with oc

 

[Koenig168]

or holding on to 4790s so as to use their existing DDR3 rather than pay the sky-high DDR4 prices.

You can't run Hackintosh on Kaby Lake?

 

[joshuaho]

With a 8700k, it wouldn’t bottleneck ur GPU even if u are using 1080ti
