Anything you get will be transferrable to a new cpu/motherboard. My guess is that you will want both a cpu and a gpu upgrade. It is possible that both tests are positive, indicating that you have a well balanced system, and both cpu and gpu need to be upgraded to get better gaming FPS.
If your FPS drops significantly, it is an indicator that your cpu is the limiting factor, and a cpu upgrade is in order. This will tell you how sensitive your games are to the benefits of many cores. You could also experiment with removing one core in the bios. Go to control panel/power options/change plan settings/change advanced power settings/processor power management/maximum processor state/ This will simulate what a lack of cpu power will do. If your FPS stays the same, you are likely more cpu limited.ī) Limit your cpu, either by reducing the OC, or, in windows power management, limit the maximum cpu% to something like 50%. If your FPS increases, it indicates that your cpu is strong enough to drive a better graphics configuration. Sorry for any grammar mistakes, english is not my first language and thanks for being an awesome community.įirst try to get some solid info on where your performance problem lies.Ī) Run your games, but lower your resolution and eye candy. I was hoping you guys can give me some advice on how to improve this system step by step because the money are pretty tight now and i cant afford a Motherboard&CPU&GPU. Also TERA online was a nightmare, on very low setting i could pull 40 fps max when not moving, on very high 10-12.
I am not happy in the current state because every game seems to stutter when set to very high even League of Legends which is not considered a high demanding game,the stutters are very small but they're there. I realize I should have not gone APU in the first place but the deed is done and im looking for cost effective ways to move away from the APU step by step.With money being an isue and for any regular cpu i also need to buy a new motherboard because its on the FM2+ socket I'm torn between buying a discrete medium-high end graphics card like ATI 78xx series or just improving the iGPU by buying higher frequency RAMS (my rams are pretty bad 2x4gb 1333mHz).
I started researching and I found out how I can improve my APU's performance like buying higher frequency RAM's or going into dual graphics with an 6670. I recently made a mistake and rushed into buying a new system without extensive research.I ended up with AMD's A10 6800k APU and so far i am not pleased with its performance, I should mention I play games frequently, recently tried TERA online and was disappointed.
