Guys whats my bottleneck?
All I have running is fortnite and a youtube video in chrome and im getting frame skipping in fortnite to where I cant play. But If i close chrome its good.
Is it my ram or my cpu?
I already have 8gb of ram and i thought 8gb of ram was more than enough?
my cpu is i5 2400 3.1 ghz
im not getting any frame drops in fortnite its just skipping and is unplayable

The whole computer as a whole is a bottleneck, You're running a computer with a processor from 2011. That's the second generation Corei7 lineup. You might need a much more powerful graphics processor or you can try a different web browser, if it does the same thing there, its probably your graphics card.
ram is fine, cpu is shit m8.
my gpu is fine dude i turned all the setting on fortnite to lowest everything why would i need a better graphics card
ok so i was gonna buy a new processor then
should i or should i get 16 gb of ram
RAM
cpu and ram. 16gb and i7 will get you there.

>fortnite
>youtube
>chrome
nigga you are either 12 or this is the worst b8 i have ever read
1) tell us what GPU you have
2) update all of your drivers
3) close chrome while playing
rx 460
its cheap shit but
i dont think thats the problem cuz im on lowest settings
i dont wanna close chrome when i play thats what i need is fortnite with a video on the other monitor
Remove fortnite, problem solved.
8GB of RAM is the bare minimum for Windows 10 to be used comfortably. Try going for 16GB or more. Also you didn't mention your GPU.
Install Gentoo
im poor i cant just buy 16 gb so easily
its very important that i bink it with the next part i buy and dont fuck it up
i have to know that this will fix it and allow me to play fortnite and watch youtube at the same time
If you genuinely are then you should use your computer to find ways to lift yourself out of poverty instead of dicking around.
youtube.com
follow these steps to clear some RAM for your needs.
you're out of ram retart
>16gb and i7 will get you there.
Why would you get an i7 just to run fortnite and youtube at the same time? Surely an i5 would be good enough.
>have to know that this will fix it and allow me to play fortnite and watch youtube at the same time
>at the same time
Why?
shut up niggers im on autism bucks
my pc is made from used parts for cheap
Stop being retarded and stop playing a video and videogame at the same time, you either play or watch the youtube video.
>just watching a YouTube video
>chrome.exe (14)
We can't possibly guarantee 100% that getting extra RAM is going to fix your problem, it's just the most likely fix.
And if you're on an old PC, you're going to be getting DDR3 for it, whereas when you decide to upgrade you'll probably need DDR4, so you can't then bring the extra RAM you might buy now to that build. If you're that poor, that's something you need to consider as well.
Why do you need to play a videogame and watch youtube videos at the same time?
Now THAT is what I call bite.
*turns 360 and goes away from the thread*
thats my thing dude how can anyone do only 1 thing at a time
i would go crazy i need multiple forms of entertainment blasting at me at all time
or twitch streams
always running in the background
Not him, but just gaming alone doesn't have the stimuli I need. I gotta have some sort of stream/YouTube video/audio book going or its just not enough.
>using windows
>running jewchrome and fortnight
>you guys why is 8gb not enough
Stop playing fortnite
Uninstall Windows
Hit the weights
take a shower
gain height
have sex
get a clue
There, problem solved
...
Seek help, that doesn't sound healthy.
Maybe he has.
Maybe it doesn't help.
Maybe he just wants anything that will dull the pain.
>Using Chrome.
>Shit tons of spyware ready to sell your information
>Not using Chromium, Waterfox or even Vivaldi that is light on resources.
all we said was we watch twitch streams while we play games
so is it my ram or my cpu?
im serious i need to buy one or the other
>Twitch
i barely watch twitch anymore i watch iceposeidon.com
ok fuck off i know theyre sjw faggots predominantely
I'd just use a different browser if I were you, or stop being autistic and close chrome while playing.
You can play you gay ass linus shill tips on your phone or something.
Save you money for an actual upgrade, like a memezen 2600 + the proper RAM and whatnot.
I'm 26 and already feel really out of touch with zoomers. I'm starting to feel like a boomer.
Buy new cpu i7 and use waterfox
Or maybe try reinstalling fortnight & nvidia drivers & geforce exprince
It's called not being a low IQ NPC that is easily entertained the the simplest lowest common denominator garbage. People with more active minds need more stimulation to stay entertained, just like how my Threadripper can do games but can also do ffmpeg stuff without a sweat.
>Fortnite
Lack of testicles is your bottleneck.
Stop using YouTube to listen to music while you play. Use actual mp3 files or Spotify or something.
YouTube on chrome uses CPU and GPU resources you don't have and will cause stutters. You can even see it in your task manager, you're using over 1 fucking gig of ram to play music when music should be using 0.02gb.
>Fortnite
Found your problem. If you have to play games, try something that isn't an unoptimized pile of shit.
get 16 gigs, 8 gb is shit for multitasking
Beat it zoomer.
close your fucking browser nigger
if you want to listen to gay ass music while playing use your phone
