Okay, so i did some homework on gpu availability (which i should have done earlier!).. Though the 9060 XT is a good suggestion, I’m planning to go with the 9070 since i can slightly stretch my budget and get some future proofing hopefully? Can you suggest me a good brand/variant with respect to...

So is there any other GPU available (Nvidia & AMD both included) that we can consider above the 9060 XT suitable for my upgrade considering a no CPU bottlenecked 2K performance and future proofing or is this the max GPU for my processor now.. Thanks again for your time..

Let’s say I can further stretch my budget for the GPU upgrade and a new PSU if needed.. How about considering the 7800 XT or the 7900 GRE or above.. will that make sense by giving me more performance and future proofing or should I spend the extra budget on a more premium monitor? Also, can you...

Hi all, I’m planning to upgrade my 2.5 yr old GPU / PC so as to be able to play the latest (like 007 first light) / upcoming (like gta 6) AAA titles in 2k ultra settings at around 100 fps.. I haven’t filled the usual questionnaire since the answers depend on the suggestions that I’m hoping to...

Sure, thanks..! Thanks for all the help everyone !

Should i ask my local PC store that i want a PC with an used CPU alone and brand new other components? Or is it something that is available as a ready made / pre assembled branded kit itself? Not only for portability, but even performance wise.. i believe the laptop will be better? There is...

Just to clarify , mine is a Phenom II cpu and not Athlon.. Let me try enquiring for used PC’s.. Like you said, i would be lucky to get a second hand pc as above with UPS (hoping it has a good functional battery !) .. One other main concern is the hard disk.. not sure if I can expect a SSD as...

That’s a good suggestion but i unfortunately don’t have access to a spare PSU + the cpu cooler needs to be fixed with reapplication of thermal paste which makes me nervous to handle it by myself.. As you pointed out, driver unavailability / OS compatibility scares me now as i plan to use few...

I intend to give life to my old PC to put it to proper use on daily productivity tasks since the office laptop has many restrictions as you know in terms of installing applications, browsing, multimedia and even connecting external devices.. Hence the intention to install quality components to...

How about if i don’t use a GPU for the secondary PC and run it with the onboard graphics itself ? On a lighter note, with all these uncertainties & complications in giving life to my old PC (where the budget comes to 14k with an UPS and 20k+ with a SSD).. its makes me think that a budget laptop...

Almost forgot another device that might be needled for this pc to run.. an UPS ! My primary desktop is already connected to an APC BX 1100C - IN 660W UPS.. Config as below : Ryzen 5 5600 MSI B550M PRO VDH WIFI ASUS RX6600 8GB 1 TB SSD + 500 GB HDD Corsair GS 600 PSU (Monitor not connected to...

Thank you for the clarity.. Though my Bluetooth devices will be placed/used nearby the pc.. the wifi router is a bit away from the desk.. so i guess a pcie card with an antenna will be a better choice.. Will try to procure this one...

There is a story behind me searching for a robust BT solution.. My 2 year old PC with inbuilt Wifi and BT on the mobo (MSI B550M Pro VDH WIFI) struggled sooo much with connecting to my earphones and maintaining a stable connection.. I literally had to suffer a lot from the connection being...

Got it ! Just one more stumbling block before I assemble this PC.. Looks like there are no Win 10 drivers for my mobo on Asus website :-( Same way, there are no Win 8.1 drivers for the tp link Pcie card on their website :-( 3.5k will be a costly mistake for me to realize that the card is not...

Do you mean i could install the GPU in the grey slot as an alternative.. Will that cause any slowness in the GPU or bottleneck its capacity? Sorry I’m not too techy to understand the ‘lanes’ concept.. And i plan to install Win 10 only..
