    Hi, Folks 4 to 5 years ago I came in here hoping for help when it came to my first PC build FX8350/ 79050 Sabertooth 990fx r2.0 and 8 gigs of ram it's served me well, in fact, it's been great.

    But I can't escape the niggling truth is it's getting old and can't maintain 60fps even with a Rx480 8gb if anything its bottlenecking?




    I'sd like to go with Ryzen 1700X-1800X, I've got 1x RX 480 8gb ill give crossfire a go if it doesn't work, ill upgrade from there but I am curious.

    Suggestions welcome any thoughts or opinions will be accepted
