I bought the Kfa2 Rtx 2060 oc 6gb and noticed that my pc is too bad for the card, my pc often gets warm and I can't even play Fortnite smoothly in 1600x900. I also have a 4x i5 6400 2.70hz and now i need some advice on what to do
How warm does your i5 get? Is he clocking himself down? Because your PC should do a lot more.
In itself, do the usual. Clean your PC, replace the thermal paste and see if there's a good air flow in the PC.
It goes up to 60 degrees but the heat does not matter because I can play fortnite even when the cold is not liquid
Did you already have a graphics card before?
Did you connect the monitor to the mainboard? That would explain why no game runs smoothly.
Fortnite should actually be able to handle your PC well.
And what is the load on your CPU in the game and under idle?
Before that had the gt 1030 and my monitor is connected to the graphics card and the graphics card is in the upper slot
Well, the processor gets warm just because of the gaming. That is normal. More power = more power consumption = more heat.
But 60C ° is fine.
Utilization is always 100 percent
Idle?
What is idle
Then please have a look while you play how busy your components are in the Task Manager.
My processor is always 100 percent full
Idle is the English word for idle and means the state when you do nothing on the PC. How fresh is the load after a boat without you starting anything extra?
If I do nothing, the cpu is 30 percent full
That is quite a lot. Try to tidy up something in your autostart. And if you have snake oil alias virus scanner running, throw it out.
Indeed, this is not expedient -.-
According to the manufacturer, a Core i5 2.8GHz is recommended. You are easily under it.
How many FPS do you have in the game on average?
I've already cleaned up my pc as well as possible. Would it make sense to get the ryzen 7 2700x?
The i5 with its 4C / 4T is absolutely out of date. An AM4 platform would be up to date, you could even continue to use the RAM here. Cost with mainboard approx. 200-300 euro, depending on the service. Upgrading to a 6700 would be a waste of money, I don't know how much is used, but over 50 euro would definitely be a waste of money.
When I move normally it runs smoothly, when I turn fast I get around 30 fps and when I'm in the endgame where everything is fully built it is not even 10
What new cpu should I get in your opinion
Your problem with Fornite is not your hardware. Fortnite is not particularly hardware-hungry, so the question is separate from this problem.
The 8 cores of the 2nd generation Ryzen are quite price-performance monsters, so an acquisition can make sense. But of course it only makes little sense for Fortnite.
I just play Fortnite because I'm limited because of the problem so if a new processor fixes that I would like to get a new one the question is which one
Ryzen 1600 AF for about 90 euro for a small budget, you can upgrade later.
Ryzen 3600 for around 180 euro for excellent price / performance and high performance.
I have 300 euro - 350 euro available for mainboard ram and cpu
Since you have a software problem, it may or may not solve your problem with the extra performance. Therefore, I would rather first look further where your CPU performance is currently seeping away and then think of a new purchase.
But, as I wrote, the 2700x is a very cost-effective choice at the moment.
Do you have all graphics settings low?
How much RAM do you have? I assume 8GB DDR4?
Yes
I have 8GB ram I don't know if ddr4 is for Intel but I have 8GB
The RAM is very good and powerful for 80 euro: https://www.mindfactory.de/...26270.html
Maybe you could just add 8GB, but it is said that different RAM in a computer is not optimal.
Remain 220 - 270 euro. That should be enough for a B450 board (approx. 100 euro) and a 1600AF or 3600.
For detailed questions, there are experts here in the forum who are even better versed than I'm.
Should I just put the ram out and put the new one in and then finish, or do I have to adjust something
It's not that simple, RAM upgrade alone won't help much. Upgrading the CPU basically means then dismantling the entire PC, rewiring and reinstalling Windows.
I have a friend who is familiar with pc building but unfortunately he doesn't know how to solve my problem but he knows how to do it with the cables and how
If it actually went better with a GT 1030 before, my upgrade suggestion may not be necessary. You should first try other solutions, as suggested by the other respondents.
But the processor is still quite out of date.
