Upgrade My PC Please! Episode 5: Dem Tings Wit Graphics

[Daymean]

I gave my hat to jigsaw,maybe his luck will finally come back

 

[Jack Arcomes]

Andrew good luck, with the AMD Ryzen 5 CPU you computer would become good gaming PC.

 

[PaperChickenNug]

End Liams misery

 

[JellyScrub]

Gaming with an APU as a CPU is hard, but without any discrete GPU....thats rough.

 

[Harman singh]

Vince is driving a 5 year old cpu with literaly no upgrades. So he really needs upgrades (gtx 1060 coming on your way).

 

[Stoica Andrei]

Hey, Steve! I currently own a Ryzen 5 1600x + GTX 1060 combo and I sure hope Potato Sama gets to replace his "potato" parts with something nice because they sure are great choices. Keep up the good work!

 

[Harrice]

All competitors should be winners. APU are heat monsters and doesn't perform too well.

 

[JKWilli]

Vince's PotatoSama has my vote. He doesn't even have a dedicated GPU. It must be hard not being able to play most if not all modern games at a decent frame rate with decent quality settings.

I couldn't imagine since I play games competitively so all those frames matter.

 

[John Willoughby]

Definitely gotta give my vote to PotatoSama. I've never played games on an APU, but could imagine that it wouldn't be any better than trying to run Crysis on a Dual Core with a single HD2600xt from ATI like I used to do back in the day. However, I wasn't able to get the settings above low to play at even 20FPS. Get that guy a dedicated GPU for God sakes!

 

[Kavej]

It looks like vince will need to do something about his gpu.

 

[Nahkri]

I like potatoes.

 

[walentaz]

Another week of an obvious vote - PotatoSama

 

[kps1293]

Get Vince that much needed upgrade please ☺

 

[kelvin1896]

Vince's PotatoSama is getting my vote

 

[PauladinWon]

Good luck Vince. Let's mash that potato and sculp it into something awesome.

 

[Andrei Tzaqa]

Vince ‘PotatoSama needs this upgrade the most . The poor guy doesn't even own a graphics card, so sad anyway, good luck to any of the contestants

 

[gerod]

Vince is the obvious winner here, others don't even come close lol
Good luck mate!

 

[jaimzarrol]

My vote is for Vince ‘PotatoSama’. Everythng about this PC makes me feel bad for the guy. Good Luck Vince.

 

[fredfish]

Having an AMD A10 5700 myself, I know how awful all these apus are for gaming, and all these systems could seriously do with an upgrade. No matter what graphics card you throw at it, it is impossible to get 60fps even in games like csgo.

 

[Fester]

Go for the CAD PC
I always vote for those that are not only gaming but doing some work too.

 

[Muthu Kumaran]

That would be a great Upgrade if Vince wins this episode. All the Best for other contestants too

 

[T3chHippie]

I have to go with Potatosama, not only to get a real life gaming rig in their hands, but to also save our eyes from that cable management. I think it would mean the most to them, honestly, and would make the biggest difference for someone. Btw, amazing thing you're doing here, Steve.

 

[Arnab Maji]

I was considering the jigsaw puzzle for a while (Damn! That guys got a bad history with AMD stuff...lol)
But Vince is DEFINITELY in need of a dedicated video card, so Potato-sama ftw!

 

[Delenca]

Harris has my vote you do need a decent rig for Cad work.

 

[Jayesh216]

Who eles can better understand the pain that
Vince ‘PotatoSama’is going through..I have a AMD a10 5750 Lenovo laptop with 4 GB which sucks in web browsing so dont even think of gaming hope you win buddy..You indeed need an upgrade..Good Luck
