Upgrading my PC

[Replenish]

My current PC is preaty old but still works fine. Two years ago I upgraded my GPU 6850 to RX480 4gb and now I'd like to upgrade it again with minimal costs. I'm planing to change only motherboard and CPU, but I don't know what is the optimal soultion for the rest of my componenst.

Here is my cpuz report

I hope my ram it's good enought for modern motherboards. Any tips are welcome. I'm thinking to get maybe i5 cpu or something similar. Anyway, I'm casual gamer and I don't want to spent to much, because I plan to buy a new PC in 2021 or 2022

 

I'm not on AMD or INTEL side, so it doesn't matter what way I go :)

Get a ryzen 5 2600, you'll need a new motherboard I recommend the Asrock b450 Pro4, you'll also need new RAM.

How much are you looking to spend total?

Is upgrading RAM mandatory ? Is current one to old for new motherboards?

To my knowledge if you're going with anything newer than a 7th gen Intel CPU (Idk AMD side) you're going to have to upgrade RAM as well.

I don't have budget limit, but I don't want to spend to much, because this is just until I buy a new one. I need some motherboard / cpu that will be good enought for my current GPU.

If I have upgrade ram too, then I basically have a new PC, not just upgrade of the current one

Not necessarily but you would be swapping out a large portion of the PC.
