Hi,
I'm am looking for some advice, but the problem is I'm so detached form hardware spec's that i don't even know how to ask the question, so please bare with me.
I'm using 3D custom scanning hardware / software and my last scan (over detailed / to many scans if I'm honest), makes the PC really lag, as in 10-20 second to move the model, 5 - 10 minutes to save the file (60GB)
Current PC Spec
Operating System
Windows 11 Home 64-bit
CPU
Intel Core i7 9700 @ 3.00GHz 43 °C
Coffee Lake 14nm Technology
RAM
32.0GB Dual-Channel DDR4 @ 1332MHz (16-20-20-38)
Motherboard
ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. PRIME H310-PLUS R2.0 (LGA1151) 26 °C
Graphics
C27R50x (1920x1080@60Hz)
C27F390 (1920x1080@60Hz)
4095MB NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER (ZOTAC International) 31 °C
Storage
1863GB Seagate ST2000DM008-2FR102 (SATA (SSD)) 35 °C
476GB SK hynix SC401 SATA 512GB (SATA (SSD)) 35 °C - Windows installed here
931GB Crucial CT1000MX500SSD1 (SATA (SSD)) 35 °C
3726GB Crucial CT4000P310SSD8 (Unknown (SSD)) - NVMe - Only NVMe slot available of the MB - Software installed here, "The File" is also saved here
Optical Drives
No optical disk drives detected
Audio
NVIDIA High Definition Audio
Checking the performance when "doing something" the memory tops out, and sometimes the CPU.
My question is, it seems I cant upgrade much without a new motherboard, what is a good option for a new MB while keeping the better of the existing kit?
Any help appreciated
Luke
