Looking to invest around $150 on a graphic card + processor, I'm looking to get the best bang for my buck so some help would be appreciated :p
Currently got a really low value pc, so anything is really gonna be an upgrade from this..

Currently:
Nvidia Geforce GT630
Intel Pentium E5300

Was looking online, and found
Gigabyte GeForce GT 710 2GB GDDR5 + Intel Celeron G4900 Dual-Core 3.1GHz 2MB
Not so sure about the Celeron tho, as I've had bad experiences with them so was maybe looking into an AMD processor?
What are my best options here?
Thank you!

Just looked deeper, maybe a AMD FX-8320 BE Octa-Core 3.5GHz with Turbo 4.0GHz 8MB
along with the Gigabyte Geforce graphic card?

download speccy and run it, post a screen shot of your hardware.
I have no fucking clue where to start with helping you and you clearly have no fucking idea what your doing.

Don't need the second sentence m8, be nice to the new guy.
He's right tho, download speccy and it will help tell us what you have. $150 isn't much of a budget to work with tho, if anything it would be just a new gfx card, then get a new cpu when you have more cash.

Here you go! Quite a shitty setup, but you gotta start somewhere right

Not sorry my direct approach offends you.
I'm only stating facts.

U need to save up more. You simply can't get 8320 cuz ull need a new mobo to fit the CPU. Also those outdated cpu are overpriced cos they're discontinued.

I mean a Q9650 is like 20$
another 4gb of ram is 10-20$
then a used 750 ti is like 50$
and a cooler to oc it. 30$

That should more then double his current setup till he can save up enough to get something worth buying.
should be not to far behind a 8350 either for gaming after the oc.
