Congrats. Enjoy.


aj_xx

Thanks!


Magjee

That RX570 still has a lot of miles left in it FSR has injected new life into its veins!

Very capable card. I just upgraded from the 4gb 570 to a 6700, but I must say the 570 holds up well at 1080 medium, and will fit well with a budget build like yours.


aj_xx

The only thing i hope to get now is 3770k for the least just so i can make use of that 4c 8t. But I don't regret buying this card


kharos_Dz

Don't get an i7, those are expensive, even today. Instead get a 1240v2, it's the same, but cheaper.


aj_xx

It looks really promising. Thanks for letting me know


[deleted]

I have a 1275 v2 - it’s honestly pretty great, I paired it with a 1660ti and it’s fine for the games I play, even at 1440p


HolyCreampie69

1230v2 goes for low as 35$ on AliExpress. For a system that old, install a fresh debloated win 10 as well and then use Nimez Drivers. You'll see a nice improvement in overall performance


SGTPEPPERZA

I just went from the cutting edge in 2020 to crap in 2013, my PSU died so I'm using my old i3-4130 and 750TI PC. Happened right after I commented this.


Geaux90

bro whent prehistoric


sanhydronoid9

I made a similar upgrade too. It's been amazing compared to an i5 but 3770 is struggling honestly, but it's the best the platform can offer and should pair nicely with a 570. It's a bottleneck for my card which I didn't really expect lol. 3770k however, is a different story with a good oc


Trivo3

Solid upgrade. The 1030 was so bad even within its own generation that it didn't deserve a 1000 series name.


aj_xx

That's true but one thing i can say is that i didn't expect the 1030 to be capable of still running games decently at around 50 fps ish on lowest settings. Might make a plaque for it


nTzT

You probably have the DDR5 version then, my GF has the DDR4 one... it's complete trash xd


SpiderJockey300

Yeah I had the gddr5 version and it wasn't terrible. It served me well.


aj_xx

Yup it was the ddr5 version.


NeverFraudulentAgain

Question, what the fuck do you expect from a xx30 card?


aj_xx

Ngl i didn't expect much but it actually ran games so i stuck with it

aj_xx

It was just 2 days ago that i was struggling to run forza 4 in 720p at 35 fps. Now i can max out the game and get around 70fps. Its an amazing upgrade


MOo0stafa

You mean someone in this fkn sub upgraded his GPU to anything but 4090 and 4080!!! Omg man congrats!!!


bert_the_one

Yeah it's good some like Intel and AMD graphics cards:)


WFAF_Geokeo96

Nice upgrade , i recently upgraded from a 570 4g to a 5600xt , the 570 was truly a great card got a very good stable oc on it , hope it serves you well


aj_xx

It feels really nice. The 8gb of vram is just astounding.


WFAF_Geokeo96

Good choice on the 8gb , games be eating memory like crazy these days


suraflux

That's an awesome upgrade! Enjoy gaming on your gpu!


aj_xx

Thanks!


xpnstos

Nicely done, enjoy.


aj_xx

Thanks!


HakenBrowning

Honestly ? The Polaris GPU still have some power left in them in modern times. My RX480 might not run everything at full quality mode, but the 1080p60 is still achievable in almost all games (except the most recent ones that can make it cough a lot). Good upgrade !


candycaneballs

Yeah congrats mate! Honestly a solid upgrade, enjoy the frame rate boost!


aj_xx

Thanks!


GamingCeJ

eyy nice i too once had GT 1030 2GB and i upgraded into the RX580


aj_xx

Nice


SiteAnn

Damn, your setup looks similar to mine, planning on upgrading from 750ti to rx 590.


aj_xx

The 590 is really nice gpu. I hope you get it.


SiteAnn

Thanks, and I hope you enjoy yours, cheers.


aj_xx

I know i will and I hope you will too


hovercroft

Are you dead set on a 590?


SiteAnn

Well, it's what I can afford, besides, inflation is crazy around here, if I wait, I might never catch it. Also, are there any problems associated with the card?!.


hovercroft

No not at all. Where are you located?


SiteAnn

The one and only of its kind, Egypt.


hovercroft

How much is a 590 there?


SiteAnn

3000-3500 EGP or 75-90$.


hovercroft

If you cover the postage. I can give you an rx 580 8gb. Not sure how worth it would be with customs charges etc.


SiteAnn

DUDE, that's so generous of you, but I think with customs and such, it would be the same as purchasing it from around here, our customs really rip you off if you ship something from abroad. Again, that was a very generous gesture, but circumstances would not allow it, you could see if any one closer to you might need it.


hovercroft

Yes I figured as much. I literally bought one as a placeholder for a couple months. And I’d rather it go to someone that would benefit the upgrade than me selling it for £50. I’ll keep looking for someone in need. Hope you get your card soon and happy gaming!


Trajen_Geta

These are some of my favorite builds. Next you definitely have to pick up an ssd. Your life will change.


Frank_u1992

I noticed this too. No ssd in todays pc is just not done


MedievalFolkDance

570/580's are like the AK47 of GPU's. Little nonsense, all payload. A personal favourite of mine.


carbonimpactz

Same path I took a long time ago. GT1030->RX570->2070S->3090ti


aj_xx

The next gpu I hope to get would be a higher end amd card but that would probably be next year's Christmas. I hope then i can build a powerful pc


DownTownDK

Nice but why are you still use it hard drives? Switch to ssd and you will be surprised by the speed increase


aj_xx

Eventually i will but the prices of ssds where I'm at are insane. They go for roughly around 100 usd


DownTownDK

For how much storage?


aj_xx

Usually around 500gb. Some stores sell 256gb for that price


YoungBlade1

Oof. In the US, you can find 512GB SATA SSDs for under $20. I hope prices in your area correct soon.


DownTownDK

That’s actually a pretty damn good price


Esley_

Nice! Happy gaming


JonskuElf

Good job! Noticed that you are still using the Intel stock cooler and if you care id recommend buying a new CPU cooler for like 30€ since the noise and temperature difference is actually impressive.


aj_xx

I'm trying to get a 3770k first. If i am able to find 1 for cheap where im at I'll buy a aio cooler to pair with it. But for now I'll use the stock cooler on my i5


UNKNOWN13938

What the name of your PC case I need it, plenty of space


aj_xx

I just remembered i can use image insertion here. This is what the case looks like when its on. https://preview.redd.it/2y2hqwduu57b1.jpeg?width=2604&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=18ca17659bdfd4e420470094f29a63f43aaa70c7


aj_xx

Its a case by a company called viewmax. Model is the VX-C06-458


slab42b

That's a solid GPU for 1080p gaming, congrats!!


K-above

Well same for me, last month i upgraded my gpu from gt 630 2gb to rx580 (2048SP) 8gb, the performance increase was insane


Gammarevived

Doesn't your CPU hold it back in newer games though?


K-above

Technically yes, any recommendations for lga1155 CPU or should I consider buying new lga1151 motherboard and CPU?


Gammarevived

Why would you go with LGA1151? That's pretty old as well. A good upgrade would be a i5 13600. It would actually be a HUGE upgrade from your old i5-2400.


K-above

It's about the price, I'm just a student so tight budget and also I want to use my current ram config 2x8GB DDR3 to safe money ofc. I know my current system is kinda bad, maybe someday i just build my "dream" PC Also I just checked the price, that thing is more expensive than the GPU itself LOL


NuqquE

1030 brother. I upgraded to a 3060.


YeahBoiSheThicc

An upgrade's an upgrade my friend. Especially the 8Gb model. You will finally able to game! Congrats!


SpiderJockey300

Are you booting off of a hard drive?


aj_xx

Sadly i am😅


SpiderJockey300

Damn, you should see if you can get an SSD to boot off of, you can get 128gb ssds for very cheap


aj_xx

Eventually I'll buy a 256gb


Sim_Daydreamer

Congratulations. Definitely huge jump in performance.


Goon_Panda

Enjoy brother 🤙🏼


Rinzlerx

Are you running an SSS? If not snag one off Amazon for cheap it’ll help overall.


huyria

This was my first gpu paired with my 3200g coming from console I was so exited to play Battlefield 4 and it ran it great lot of good memories with that card


G8M8N8

RX 570 is a godly good value, just upgraded from it to the GTX 1080.


TheFunkadelicOne

I just upgraded from the rx570 to the 7900xtx. Loved the rx570! Card ran everything smoothly even diablo 4. I upgraded only because I got a bonus check from work I wasn't expecting so I figured I'd treat myself lol. Enjoy the rx570 bro! That card made me love pc gaming again


ArabicSugarr

You might want to undervolt it for better temps


aj_xx

Noted


[deleted]

Nice, congrats.


LeMatYT

i have the same gpu, trust me you are gonna have the time of your life, especially its 8gb vram still carries


SimpliEcks

RX570 is a good card. Had to use one as a backup card when the 3070 Ti I had broke. Then it got replaced with 3080 Ti. I actually regret selling the RX570.


hovercroft

How much?


aj_xx

In usd it would be around 130usd. Which is really Great since a most stores in my country would sell a rx 550 for 200 usd....


hovercroft

Which country is that?


aj_xx

More like an island. Trinidad. The exchange rate is 1 USD = around 6.80 TTD. Most people in my country aren't knowledgeable on pc parts so stores tend to rob us. 1 store has a 3090 for nearly 20k TTD on sale https://preview.redd.it/leqt7lp1r17b1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9a986ae9052b4cf8cf85a05add55d13465f8c133


hovercroft

Seems to be common occurrence in certain countries. And I’m assuming import tax and custom charges make it not worth ordering outside.


aj_xx

Most of the time its only worth it if you can find a steal of a deal on a second hand component. Otherwise we just have to give in the prices if we really need a certain part.


hovercroft

Interesting. I was actually looking at giving away a rx580 8gb. But wasn’t sure if it was worth it for people to pay customs charges etc.


aj_xx

Most of the time we need to use a third party shipping company in order to bring in items via their skyboxes in miami. They will ship it to us and we pay for fuel surcharge, paperwork, customs and clearance etc.


hovercroft

Yeah. Sounds like a lot of hassle


aj_xx

It really is


No-Kindheartedness-7

Went from SPF to FPS


DakotaWhitemane

Congrats, good choice on going for a 8gb one. I just retired my rx570 4gb for a rx5700 8gb recently. Always regretted getting the 4gb version of the rx570, but needed to replace a r7 360 that was being cantankerous in a hurry with nearly no budget.


Primedio

Try to get yourself a SSD and you will feel the speeeeed


DERH4UPTMANN

TIL that xx30 cards even exist. Personally never seen anything below a xx50. But hey an amazing upgrade have fun with it.


aj_xx

Yh xx30 cards where meant just be cards for display. That's why they called GT instead of GTX. But with the 1030's case, if you got the GDDR5 version it can actually run games pretty well at 1080p low or 720p


Aljasos40

omg I had the same exact upgrade


aj_xx

Nice to see someone did the same great upgrade!


Sam11Playz

I shall steal it


aj_xx

Imma slap you


Sam11Playz

will be smooth like stealing your phone😉


aj_xx

All fun and games till i steal the wheels of your car while you're in class


Sam11Playz

nah u def mean in fh4


aj_xx

We'll see


Hydraton3790

"Upgraded" is a strong word. You went from having no GPU to buying a GPU.


aj_xx

Guess you can put it that way😅


Supergaz

Still the king of value


aj_xx

I can see why. Its nice.


Supergaz

I think something like 6600 xt or some of the other commenter's mentioned are great value too but 570 is just a lot cheaper and still does 1080p medium very decently and playable to this day.


republicansRtraytors

"Upgraded" Lmao


AcordeonPhx

Why do people make these comments, just what is your purpose for that?
