Hi Hardforum. Was wondering if someone could update me on the knowhow in hardware nowadays.

After playing Rise of the Tomb Raider and getting a terrible FPS, I realized it might be time for an upgrade.

My build is in my signature. I was wondering if I could get advice.

Some of you have already helped me in my other thread, but it died so I was wondering if anyone had input here!

My other thread with input thus far is the link below:

Bottleneck and need for upgrade?


Thanks!
 
Also a quick note, I learned how to overclock video cards, and tried it on mine.

I'm not sure if it's just pushed to its limit already, or if the card is just old and worn, but it can't get past 1070 (core clock) and 1538 (memory clock) without crashing, even with power output up 20%. I'm just saying this because one person recommended trying to overclock if it could fix the fps issue, but I think it's fair to say we can rule that out. (note: default for my card is 1050/1500 respectively, with updated drivers)
 
no need for two threads. I responded in the original, delete this one.
