Most Worthwhile Upgrades for Sim Racing

[dom.au23]

Cool. I’ve never updated my bios. Still in the 2018 version from what I can see.

The guides I have watched seem easy enough (famous last words)

Is that something I can do now, in advance or will it cause problems with my current cpu

You can and it should not cause problems, but personally I would wait until you're closer to the purchase date.

Thanks again for all the replies.

Anything above a 5600 isnt compatible with my motherboard. If i stick to a Ryzen 5 i think 5600 series is the best i can do. At £120 is that a decent deal? I'd then get a SATA and that should help thinks along until i get a better GPU?

After a quick test my CPU and GPU both give me about 90fps on a 27" at 1080p with mid-low settings on Le Mans Ultimate Sim racing game

check 2nd hand..plenty around as people upgrade to am5..should get below £70..and you can get 32gb of ram for £60 new, if you go 2nd hand and that £45...sell your 16gb for £15/20.so upgrade isn't massive cost on that. running ouit of ram will def cause stutters
