Heya mates, I’m really thinking to upgrade for WoW, do RTX 3060 or Ryzen 5 5600X first? thoughts ? This is for upgrade on my current PC pcpartpicker(dot)com/list/hxzrY9 everything except GPU is what i have now.
I don’t really play Single player games like God of War etc on PC. Mostly i play Esport titles and WoW. I currently have an Nvidia GTX 1660, AMD Ryzen 5 3500X and 16 GB dual memory ram (2*8gb) . I recently bought a 1440p 165hz monitor and it’s so good, but running WoW on native doesn’t work that well.
5800x 3D is the only CPU I would consider for wow at the moment. World of Warcraft is a CPU intensive game and changing over to the 5800x 3D processor unless you’re willing to wait for Raptor lake or Zen4 would by far be your biggest upgrade
It’s currently not only leading the pack but but it’s even blowing intel with ddr5 out of the water due to its crazy cache. Wow drimks up cache like water in the desert
Out of every CPU that you can currently Buy; this is of course excluding Zen4 and Raptor Lake because they are not released yet. So out of currently everything on the market you can see in his video that he had to put the 12900K under liquid nitrogen or manually tune the ram to insanely tight timings to make it beat the stock 5800x 3D so that should tell you a lot
Yep i just finished it, i’m so thankful mates like him exist. It’s so hard to find information for upgrade when you only wanna play a specific game that isn’t a AAA cyberpunk bullcrap
Yeah also consider the fact that for gaming purposes only the 5800X 3D is going to age a lot better than any of the other ryzen CPUs excluding the 5950x because that’s just a Powerhouse it was recently on sale for $495 on Amazon they sold out within 3 hours of the price change and I was lucky enough to snag one
Turned around and sold my current 5900x for $400 on Facebook so it was a solid win for me
edit:
i believe the 6 threads of the 3500x is what is holding back your system. the next gen stuff is coming so if you can suck it up for a few months and save up it’s better. or hit ebay and get a used cpu for cheap
I wouldn’t get a 12th gen 12700k atm 13600 looks really nice for price performance Also I would try to get a 3060 ti it is much more powerful for only a tiny bit more.
Thanks everyone! Just got on to the game and I no longer see 1920x1080 resolution…I only see 1600x900 and 1900x720…I have a 1080p, 144hz monitor and currently running r5 3600 and GTX 1650 super…more than capable of 1080P but the game does not show this selection…
In other games such as SWTOR, there is the selection for 1920x1080 resolution…Am I missing something?
my geforce GTX 1050 Ti, works well, but it seems that the game requires that you have a mandatory resolution of 1920 x 1800 resolution due to the fact that I started with a hud that was too big, something tells me that not only videocard is the only problem to use a good monitor.
