hey im looking to upgrade my pc as I'm an average gamer. I built this pc about 2 years ago pretty cheap. What should I upgrade for maximum performance. Looking to get more fps and smoother gameplay. Currently I run at about 60-80fps but sometimes it drops to 30-40.



GeForce gtx 1050 3g gpu

AMD radion 7600 a-8 cpu

1t hdd

8gig ddr4 ram

Asus a68hm-k motherboard

650w beast power supply


Using this with an older Lenovo 1600x900 60hz monitor. (Had to get an adapter to fit vga monitor to hdmi gpu)

Playing overwatch competitive

cpu/gpu/ram/ssd

In that order?

I can pay 20fg for a complete guided educational anwser.

If you upgrade cpu gpu will still hold you back and vice versa.
So both at same time is ideal.
3600/3700 cpu + 3060/3070


Ram for more applications and games.
Aim for 16-32gb of 3600mhz cas 16

Ssd for load times and for a snappy os.
1tb for os apps and games.

Then invest into a 2k 144hz ips monitor

Would my powersuply handle it?
I have an older Lenovo pc case. Ill have to check if it would fit

imo go ssd/cpu/gpu/ram

650w is enough if it's real old maybe not for the long haul.
