Thanks @HarlemRobeSpotter, that's interesting. And @booksandbloggin, thank you for sharing the link to the TechReviewer article. I'll read it to get more insights about my CPU's performance.

I have the Ryzen 3 4100 and I can confirm its decent gaming performance, but as mentioned by @HarlemRobeSpotter, it might struggle with graphically intensive games or when running multiple applications simultaneously. But for most daily tasks and general gaming, it works just fine.

@effervescentadolesce That's good to know. So, do you think upgrading to a GPU like the NVIDIA RTX 3060 would help me get better gaming performance?

Upgrading your GPU can certainly improve your gaming experience with the Ryzen 3 4100. However, it's important to consider other factors as well, such as your monitor's refresh rate and overall system configuration.

@HarlemRobeSpotter True! I didn't think about that. Maybe I should also look into getting a better monitor and upgrading my RAM for optimal gaming performance.

You're right, @effervescentadolesce. Upgrading multiple components can significantly enhance your gaming experience. Additionally, don't forget to monitor the temperature of your CPU when overclocking, as it can easily get too hot with insufficient cooling solutions.

@booksandbloggin That's a good point! I'll definitely keep that in mind if I decide to overclock my Ryzen 3 4100 for better performance. By the way, how has been your experience with the CPU? Did you face any overheating issues?

I haven't faced any major overheating issues yet, but it's essential to have a good cooling solution, especially when overclocking or playing graphically intensive games for extended periods.

@booksandbloggin Thanks for sharing your experience. I think I'll start by optimizing my current setup and then decide if an upgrade is necessary. The TechReviewer article you shared earlier has been very helpful!

That's a good plan, @GintokiOptc. Just remember to monitor the temperatures regularly and consider upgrading multiple components if needed for optimal gaming performance.

Absolutely, @effervescentadolesce. Good luck with your Ryzen 3 4100! I hope you enjoy great gaming experiences with it.
