Help me choose a GPU!

[Erbyy]

Hello, im looking for an upgrade in terms of a GPU. Im curious on the level of bottle necking i have on my system, since i know very minimal of the topic i came here! What do you think about this?
My build currently: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/vtZgyf 
Oc'd to 4.4Ghz
I know its old but it suits my needs kinda. 

I was looking into a Rx570 or possibly a 1070. 
What kind of gpu should i be looking for? 
Or would it be easier to just upgrade the entire system.

keep gpu, save up some money, v e g a and whatever nvidia is releasing (i forgot the codename..) 

 

after you upgrade your gpu, you should look at upgrading to ryzen

get a 580 8gb and then upgrade to ryzen

IMO GTX 1060 6GB or RX 480/580, anything beyond that will cause CPU bottleneck
Also PSU is quite mediocre

[Erbyy]

Unrealted, but how much do you think i would be able to sell this system for? I want to sell it, and upgrade. 

[hconverse02]

Get a ryzen 1600 or 1600x and keep that gpu, cause its good, but that cpu will bottleneck most newer gpus.

Upgrade the whole system now as the FX 8320 is hilariously bad. What would be your budget for a new machine?

Cmon bro, its not horrible lmao. But honestly i know what i want. And for a decent Zen setup would be around 1k. I already have half the parts so in reality the new system would only cost me around 6-700.

the ram

What RAM and how much?

Get a Ryzen 5 1600, B350 mobo and an RX580. Go by this list and get a PSU with 500 watts or more that is tier 3 or above.

[Fluffybakon]

Here you go : https://pcpartpicker.com/list/V6kCPs

 

You will need new ram, as ryzen supports only ddr4, but its not expensive.

Ryzen 5 1600 is an excellent processor, Ive included a mounting bracket for your h80i if necessary. I think it should mount fine but just on case. A 6gb gtx 1060 is a great card, but an rx 580 is essentialy identical, just choose which one you want.

And of course a reliable psu helps aswell.

 

Good Luck!

You should be good in terms of ram then.

figured, im still not to sure why i would choose the 1700 over the 1600. I will honestly be using it for gaming. So the R5 is better choice?

Get a Dark rock 3, even better the pro. It's in line in terms of cooling with more expensive AIOs, and it's dead silent.

R5 is a better choice if you're only gaming, yes.

Silent is what i want my dude. I dont think my h80i v2 would keep up with a zen overclock. Its aleady noisy with a 4.4 oc on my 8320
