    Hi Everyone,

    I've been playing TSW for several years now however I'm noticed that the game is really starting to struggle on my system - particularly on more demanding routes like WCML, Frankfurt S-Bahn etc. and to be honest, any route where this quite a lot of static or rolling stock in play.

    I have been playing on a Lenovo Legion gaming laptop with the following specs
    CPU - AM Ryzen 5 5600H
    GPU - RTX 3060
    RAM - 16 (Dual Channel)

    I have inherited a PC tower with the following specs however its a few years old and in need of updating
    CPU - AMD Ryzen 5 3600
    GPU - GTX 1660 Super
    Motherboard - MSI X570-A PRO
    RAM - 16 GB (Dual Channel)
    Memory - 2.5 SATA and 500GB SSD.

    I've been thinking about options of upgrading and was thinking of getting an improvement in the form of a new CPU and GPU. Possibly the Ryzen 5700X and GTX 5060Ti (16GB). I'm generally just wanting to play at 1080P with a steady frame rate.

    I was wondering if this would be a worthy improvement and if it would likely help with the FPS troubles I've been getting. I know the game has its shortcomings however it really makes my Lenovo Legion chug, down to single digits FPS wise at times.

    Any wisdom or knowledge from your end would be much appreciated!
    Thanks in advance.
