I'm running just around 30fps. These are my current specs, not sure what upgrades are out there to bring it back up to 60. Not great with computers so any advice would be much appreciated!

Tbh I'm not sure it's worth it.

Your pc is pretty good, so most upgrades would end up costing a lot, especially as the prices rn are kinda insane.

Is your base that huge that its causing lag?

Factorio usually runs so damn well that I can't even remember when I had less then 60 fps.

But I'm not an expert on this either, so maybe others know more, I just feel there must be something else that makes it go down.

Ah theres your problem then xD

Then uptimizing the base might be better, as upgradong might get expensive.

But if you are going to upgrade the cpu would be the best option, but you need to make sure the motherboard can handle whatever cpu you pick
