Hello, Im new here. Im wondering if ppl could take a quick moment to find the "best" CPU - GPU - Motherboard - RAM - I want to upgrade these with a budget at 1.5k to 2k USD my specs Intel i5 3470 3.20ghz not sure what type ram but got 16gp atm AMD radeon HD 7900 3gb or 4gb im not sure not sure about my motherboard Im sorry for the small amount of information about my specs. I hope you guys can still help me out. Thanks~~
Why upgrade? You need more power for something? i5-3470 is quad core and OK. 16GB RAM is OK. GPU is quite fast also. Upgrade just because of upgrade is waste of money if you don't really need more power.
I'm inclined to agree with the above and also wonder what cause you have for upgrading? Unless you want to game in a 4K multi-panel environment, or some regular professional work that needs more power, I can't see where you're running into trouble.
Depends on what you are playing and what are settings. Better video card helps with getting higher FPS.
Unless, I missed something, CS:GO runs on the Steam engine, which seems to run well on most things that run faster than a Pentium MMX.
