Yeah, it doesn't work like that tbh. Technically any CPU can "power" any GPU. What you should be looking for is how many frames CPU u want to buy can push in games u want to play, that's how u decide on buying some CPU. As for GPU - always buy the best for your money. If you want to see you GPU being in heavy use even when it doesn't have to be - u can always use NVIDIA DSR, add some antialiasing, crank up graphics settings etc.
This also depends a lot on the streaming service u want to use and games u want to stream. Say, if it's some new Assassin's Creed and Twitch with its hilarious bandwidth limits - u're likely to run into CPU bottleneck while streaming with software encoding. If it's some CPU-easy e-sports title - you might stream without any issues. And if it's some other streaming service with high bandwidth limits, or local recording - u might just use NVENC hardware accelerated encoding with higher bitrate and get pretty much the same results with way lower CPU usage.
You will need a new power supply for any current gpu.
And Windows 10.
The i5-4460 won't drive an rtx2070 to its full capability.
Your monitor needs to be checked to see if it can connect to an rtx (displayport or hdmi version 2 not 1.4).
Also the ROG website says that the mobo uses SO-DIMMs and has only two slots. So you need to check before buying any memory.
My view is that upgrading to a 4790 isn't worth the money, considering the comparable cost of much better parts - cpu, mobo, memory.
Streaming could be difficult with any 4th gen cpu.
personally i would not buy a new rtx gpu and just go for a ryzen 2600 + second hand gtx 1070 for that money... (selling your old parts for more money)
Will solve your performance probs with the current games you play then will be able to tackle the big games with the new drop-in cpu/board/mem. Also check your PSU as mentioned the 750 is only 55w card while the 2060 is going to use 160w.
Best bet reinstall win10 on the ssd. Don't forget to backup your existing key if on win7 it should activate win10 once you install.
i appreciate your insite! and yeah im going refurbished for just about everything im going to put in the computer i know its old i just want too make it as good as possible for atleast a few years before i think about upgrading
what parts would you recommend? i dont know whats actually compatible, which is why i was using that website then id take the names of the parts that didnt have a red sign next to it saying that they wouldnt work and thats what i came up with. as for memory yes 2 slots it currently has 1 8gb stick in it everything ive seen says it supports a max of 16gb of ram but a youtuber by the name of welsh gaming says he was able to upgrade his to 32gb of ram after upgrading to a i7 so i wanted to try this but i dont know if thats an actual thing or not
Anthem is getting ray tracing? Cool, finally tried out bf5 the other day and it does look cool, and not as big of a performance hit as the early days.
i have windows 10 on a laptop can i use that product key or do i use thee same from 8? also maybe im wrong here but the cpu has 2 power supplies one powers theoverall cpu and theres a second one dedicated only to the gpu for when you upgrade to higher end cards the card it comes with dosent actually use any of this supply you have to physically activate it on the motherboard and that gives the gpu an extra 180w is that enough?
this is the monitor im using https://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-34UM65-P-ultrawide-monitor
im showing my ignorance here but i was told i couldnt mix and match brands llike that, intel with nividia and amd with amd....what can i really do here?
apparently you have to have the extra 180 watt power supply. make sure you have this.
considering your power supply and cpu limitations, i would probably go with a 1060 6gb and stop there.
i have both supplies
hmm maybe it is https://rog.asus.com/articles/gaming-desktop-pcs/republic-of-gamers-announces-rog-g20cb-with-gtx-10-series-graphics-cards/
I think you mean dual-rail on your current power supply, so yea that's sort of how it works but if you can post your make/model of PSU that would give us a better understanding of what you currently have and can recommend keeping or upgrading.
No you were misinformed, you can use any brand CPU with any brand GPU, you have to match the CPU / motherboard and memory to an extent but your GPU choice is completely independent of the other components.
Generally no it's not like that.
