Upgrading CPU Worried about RAM bottleneck is RAM upgrade necessary?

[worthy trellis]

3800 is optimal but faster or slower depending what speed your fabric maxes out at

[honest shell]

You should be fine. Although a 3070 would be better paired with a 5700x, unless you play a lot of esports titles?

It’s about half the price while giving about 80-90% the perf, and on a 3070 you’ll most likely be GPU bottlenecked most of the time on AAA

I do run esports titles almost exclusively while on low graphics settings and suffer a cpu bottleneck which gets pretty severe when in a siltation where theres a lot going on in a small space

[honest shell]

Well you’re gonna get a CPU bottleneck even with a 5800x3d, esports titles are very GPU light

It just depends on how much performance you want vs how much you wanna pay for said perf

i understand but it wont be as bad as fps dropping well below 100

[honest shell]

What title are you playing?

You shouldnt be dropping that low on esports titles even on a 3700x

recently fortnite

dont make fun of me its fun lmao

[honest shell]

I would try updating drivers

Going below 100fps is quite odd

Unless you mean the stutter that happens occasionally

Fortnite does that, i dont think any CPU’s gonna fix it. The game just runs like shit

Though going to a 5800x3d will minimize it somewhat i guess

i have tried everything except my cpu drivers so ill try that thank you

[sonic parcel]

in end games fps drop like crazy on any cpu

[honest shell]

CPU drivers arent really a thing

Do you mean GPU drivers

I know fortnut just had a new update

[sonic parcel]

lmao i thought thats what youre referring to

[honest shell]

Might be issues with new update. Happens every time.

i was genuinly confused thinkikng i was unaware of cpu drivers where a thing
