Hey guys.
I am looking for some advice here. This pc is my lifeline as I use it for all my work. It's gotten extremely sluggish. I bought it from my friend for R1000. 00
I'm hoping to be able to run some games on it too.
Long story short. I am asking for some advice on what to upgrade or if there is a way to boost the current parts performance without upgrading (because I am as broke as can be after lockdown).
These are the parts my pc currently has (results from userbenchmarks, not sure what a lot of it means however thought it may be useful)
UserBenchmarks: Game 22%, Desk 69%, Work 17%
CPU: AMD FX-6350 Six-Core - 67% (CPU 1, 1 CPU, 3 cores, 6 threads, Base clock 3.9 GHz, turbo 3.85 GHz (avg))
GPU: Nvidia GTX 960 - 32.9% (CLim: 1455 MHz, MLim: 1752 MHz, Ram: 2GB, Driver: 456.71)
HDD: WD Blue 2.5" 500GB (2009) - 37.6%
RAM: Transcend JM1333KLN-4G 2x4GB - 44.3% (8GB DIMM DDR3 clocked @ 667 MHz)
MBD: MSI 970 GAMING (MS-7693)
