ill be posting my pc journey here like my upgrade path, issues and stuff. Current PC Specs (as of August 28, 2025) CPU - i7 2600 GPU - GTX 750 TI RAM - 20gb DDR3 Motherboard - Z7-G something (i forgot) Future PC Specs (subject to change cuz budget stuff) CPU - Ryzen 5 5500 / Ryzen 5 5600 GPU - GTX 1660 Super (if its the R5 5500), RX 6600 (if it's the R5 5600) RAM - 16gb DDR4 Motherboard - (not decided yet) i'm a bit new to pc building, i have yet to make a proper pc build myself and i do not know much about the bottlenecks that can occur with certain gpu+cpu combos. im just here to post some stuff and all that, feel free to have feedback n all that.
You will want the the most powerful processor you can afford, if you want to run a bunch of traffic and spawn multiple things, if you only want to run a few things then the CPU is not that important. Unless you are running 1440p or higher, a gpu in the rtx 4060 range will also be sufficient. I'd suggest if you want to stay with AMD to go with the AM5 platform instead of going with an AM4 platform as its getting quite old by now.
thats for sure, but im not gonna be playing beamng much as i also do play other games. ill think about upgrading the ram size
