Will this build be enough for modding?


Recommended Posts

Hello, I'm getting upgrades to my current build.

and will be upgrading my pc to this

I just want to know if my build will be enough for modding as right now on my 8320 I can't hit a solid 60 fps in diamond city in fallout 4. and I have issues running skyrim se(and soon to be modded skyrim classic) Out doors. Will this pc be enough as my budget for upgrades is 300$ and I know the only other cpu in my price range is the i5-7500 but in most games they do about the same in performance.

Should be an all around great gaming PC. I suggest getting Shadow Boost to help with performance, and getting a mod to 100% disable God Rays if your plan is to stay as close to 60fps at all times. Fallout 4 is a horribly optimized game, and those two things should greatly improve your overall experience with it. But like I said, your PC upgrades were all very great choices. It should be great for Fallout 4 and virtually any other game you want to play.

Thank you Daddy direction. I appreciate the advice. I'm getting into modding and have no idea which mods to install or how to install them (without nexus mod manager) so i'm going to watch gopher fallout modding guide and his mod clinic videos. Also since miners are buying up rx cards I'm thinking about selling it on ebay for 300(I have an r9 280x for a back up card) and get a 1070 once they go on sale.

Well the GTX 1070 should certainly set you up for a long time when it comes to any GPU bound scenario. I'm not so sure that CPU will be strong enough to take full advantage of the GTX 1070 if framerates over 100 matter to you. If your goal is 1080p at 60fps though, there shouldn't be any issue with the pairing. The GTX 1070 is overkill for 1080p, it's a very nice GPU.

Oh no. I'm not going to get a 144 hertz monitor. I'm fine with 60 fps and a big complaint with people that play at higher frame rates is that once you go to 100 fps and up, you can't go back. And someone like me who's on a budget shouldn't try to reach for things they can't afford lol. So for now 60 fps is more than enough. Plus I've been looking at grapics over hauls for fallout and skyrim and a 1070 would fit my needs more.
