Hey all,
Currently I think about upgrading my PC cause I "only" get around 150-160 fps in CSGO. Due to the fact that I play on a 144hz Monitor thats quite an issue, also dropping under 144fps, which happens often when I get peeked, feels extremly chunky.
Also my current Rig (see above) is quiet aged now, so I don´t feel sorry to spend some money, the only question is if its worth it.
I looked up the speed difference between my current CPU and a 3700x Ryzen (which I think would be the CPU of choice, correct me if I´m wrong) and its not that big

So if I look at my the results from my system (also above), should I upgrade my graphics card only and skip the CPU/Plattform upgrade to maybe later go with an Ryzen 4xxx (at least if it´s worth it)?
For work use (coding) it´s fast enough for some years, so Gaming is the main concern. Are there any factors that come into play other then raw performance?
Hope you can help me with this desicion :)
Greetings Pascal
