Will new CPU improve FPS?

Hi all,

I do absolutely love playing Beam.
Recently I bought a new GPU, the RX480.
The gameplay is much better than it was, settings are now on normal.
However, when 3 or more vehicles are spawned, the FPS drop to 30 and below. I
have an Intel i5-2500T and I know it is doesn't really suit the game.
My question is: When I upgrade the i5 to an i7-2600, will the FPS be better?

Thanks in advance!

 

Yes, BeamNG is a very CPU heavy game.

 

Also GPU, depending on the model

 

When your FPS is really low, open task manager and tell us what CPU usage and GPU usage are. That should give a better idea of exactly where the bottleneck is.

If CPU usage is really high, that is a good sign that it's time for an upgrade.

 

I use a live CPU usage graph, and it's always 90-100%
So that's most likely the problem?

 

Absolutely the problem.

 

Yeah, even with 1 car beamng uses the CPU quite heavily for gpu tasks.
