What do i need to upgrade for better POE 2 performance?

[KillerNav]

Hi guys,

I have AMD Ryzen 5 3600, GTX 1660 Super and 16 GB ram. Which one of these i need to upgrade for a better POE 2 Performance?

Video card, then CPU, then ram in that order as feasible, Ram would likely be better saved for your next build. SSD\NVME is fairly important as well. At least run it on the fastest storage you have for the best experience.

I have the same CPU with 32gb AM and a 2070 super, I am playing at 1080p generally at 120 fps with dlss on so I'd say your GPU first and like the previous post said run it on a SSD if you can.

I have kept everything low or off and at 1080p but still sometimes the FPS drops to 40 fps otherwise its coming between 60 to 80.

definitely your gpu. your ram is fine and cpu is good enough. but your gpu is very weak.

i'm having the same specs as yours.

3600x ryzen (very fined.)
32gb ram (16gb is fine.)
but my rx580 8gb.
(100% burning out. not okay.)

i would say
1st = is nvme helps a ton.
2nd = is poe2 seems very gpu heavy.
(like Cake said.)

i'm looking at =gpu upgrade mainly.

a used rx 6700xt 12gb
or intel arc b580 12gb

either GPU with be 3x times my rx580.
so that will set it for years to come.
(try to main nvme/ssd.)
(try to avoid/GPU with 8gb vram.)

lastly, i monitor my cpu 3600x,
(it seems doesn't much affected 20-60% usage.)

while GPU RX580 maxing out.
90%-100% constant.
(though maxing 58c, it's worrying me quite some.)

-------------------
6800xt or 4070 will bottleneck by cpu.
unless you are running 1440p.

I am thinking of getting RTX 4060 and a NVME.

hi..

while you're waiting to get the fix in. i would also suggest maybe trying out the vulcan option. it should say "in beta" or something similar. vulcan does help out quite a bit with older gpus. give it a shot. under video options.

all the best.

great choice. just make sure the 16gb version 4060. also like above says vulkan is good. ryzen 3600 + 4060 will have no issue. cheers

also the nvme if can don't get gen5 top speed. it can runs extremely hot. (those 6k-8k mb/s once.)

anything 1000mb/s-3000mb/s is good enough.

mainly nvme/ssd is the IOPS.
(input output per seconds.) comparing to hdd.

the data gen5 etc is more like moving large files / streaming or editing videos.
