Hello everyone, just want to start by saying thank you if you have anything to contribute at all. It has been a while since
I have built a PC, and I really do not want to spend too much $ on a top of the line PC with all brand new parts.

This is my current set-up and I am looking to purchase a new GFX card and to look into SSD for my OS (WIN10 64b)
https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/3kqZHN

What GFX card would you suggest for a budget of $150-230?
Would you recommend installing an SSD for the OS and using HDD for everything else?

Lastly, should I buy another set of matching RAM sticks to get it to 16gb?

Thanks again!

Grfx: AMD RX 480

SSD Samsung 850 EVO - 250GB


Yes put the OS on the SSD and the rest on the hard drive.

Unless your storing large amounts of media. IE: movies/shows/pics then no, a single large SSD would suit you better.
