Planning an upgrade
PJ1-xWed Oct 03, 2018 10:30 pm
I am looking into an AMD A10 5800k processor
ASUS A88X - PRO mb
32gig GSKILL SNIPER memory
I am on a tight budget , and these parts are all second hand from a friend
My question is will it run BF1 , BF5 , COD:WWII , COD:BO4 ?
To build it and find I can't run at least BF1 and WWII would be disappointing to say the least .
Does anyone have some input ?

Just doing some quick looks, I would say based on the minimum requirements probably BO4 but for an AMD processor for BF5 they are saying a FX-8350 which is an 8-core processor. This one is a decent quad-core. So not too sure on BF5. The other big factor with both of these games is the video card. What card are you going to run?

looking at the specs, its not going to run those game with any reasonable output if at all,
the processor is an 11 year old chip and if your going to be using the built in graphics then o'm all most positive that it isn't going to run the games.
don't know how much you have to spend or already have for the best advice post what your currently running.
and 32gig of ram is over kill unleast your render large video or cads etc.
at the moment its a bad time to be buying a new system as ram and gpu prices are still high but looking for good deals in the second hand market it a good way to go.
but for the protection/warrenty factor some times it better to buy new. i'm running a fx8350 and it stuggles with some games, i'm going to be upgrading soon just waiting for the right prices.
i would suggest looking at amd ryzen chips bang for buck is pretty good

personally i dont see it handling bf5 or bo4 however it may run BF1.
at 3.4-4.2 boosted i think the CPU will be a bottleneck to what ever Vidcard you plan to run

So , I am probably looking to not use the used parts after all . I found some good prices foe an AMD Ryzen5 1600 , and a MSI B450 Tomahawk MB. Trying to sort out memory , and at this time I have an EVGE GTX 660 SC that I will upgrade next year if I need to. I did read a while ago , people having issues running older games with the Ryzen , or was it not a problem . I appreciate all the input
