Hey there! I'm thinking about upgrading my PC because I'm having some trouble when using dual monitors while playing high-definition games like Expedition33 or CS2. Here's my current setup:
- **CPU**: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X (6 cores)
- **GPU**: RTX 5060 Ti (16GB)
- **RAM**: 16GB DDR4 (3200 MHz)
- **SSD**: 1TB
If you need more details, just let me know. I'm not really an expert when it comes to hardware, but I would appreciate any help you can offer!

Upgrading to 32GB of RAM and possibly a 5700X3D would be a solid choice to mitigate those issues. Just a thought!
It sounds like your 16GB of RAM might be getting maxed out, especially when you're juggling multiple applications like Discord and Firefox along with your games. You should check your RAM usage in the task manager while gaming. If it's hitting 100%, adding another 16GB could really help boost performance.
With that setup, you shouldn’t really be having issues. What kind of monitors are you using, and what activities are you doing on the second one? Are you seeing a drop in performance? It’d be helpful to get some actual performance numbers comparing single vs. dual monitor setups.
Honestly, if dual monitors are causing too many issues, one solution could simply be to not use the second monitor while gaming. I know it’s tough, but it might be a quick fix until you can upgrade.
