So My desktop is a few years old now and I think it’s time to upgrade
I know nothing about specs so coming to the experts!

I stream and play mainly apex legends

Looking for 2 options:

Option 1)
1 PC built to stream/game

Option 2)
Dual PC for streaming/gaming

I don’t have a set budget but would like to keep it reasonable (if that makes sense?)

Thank you :)

Upgrade bios then cpu, basically all you need to do imo.
Then dedicate 4core/8threads to games.
maybe a gpu upgrade if you want it.
