Putting together a couple of older PC's for Lan gaming when the kids have friends round.
Currently games like Roblox, Minecraft, Fortnite, Rocket League etc.
One of the systems:
I7 2600k
H61 (I think) no OC
16GB
Antec 450W (very light usage)
Kolink Satellite (so space is tight)
RX550 2GB
Will be 1080p, 60 fps if possibe and the RX550 is pretty limitted.
I have a RX6600 I could slot in but thought that would be better with a more recent CPU / platform as it's x8 PCI-E which is even more restrictive.
RTX 3050 is also x8 PCI and still expensive used.
Was thinking grabbing a used GTX 1660 or similar for 6GB VRAM.
Seems the sweet spot.... any better suggestions?
