CPU upgrade

[AntoMira]

I have an old rig and want do to some upgrades, but not shure of what and to what, see:

 

My current rig is 10+ years old but is fine for and FullHD Ultra on a little old games.

I just want to keep my ultrawide 1080p monitor and play more modern games with respectable fps.

 

My current rig:

- AMD Phenom II X6 1090T

- 8Gb DDR3 1333 RAM

- Radeon R9 390 8Gb

(Also SSDs)

 

My question is, if i upgrade to an Ryzen 5 2600 with 4 or 6 cores it will be enough upgrade with my current Grahipcs Card?

If i upgrade to an Ryzen 7, will have any inprovements over the 5 (that worth the money)?

 

If i don't want to upgrade my graphics card it will be ok or it's too old for and Ryzen and will need an upgrade too?

If yes, which one? (i know that an Geforce 1080 or 2060 will be excelent but are too expensive for what i want)

 

Thanks in advance!

Having went from an R9 295x2 to a 1080 Ti & then done a jump from a i7 3930k to an i9 9900K, I can tell you that GPU will show its age for sure in newer games. Like the 295x2, it lacks the raw throughput to handle modern titles at acceptable fps at anything over 1920x1080 especially. 

 

Having said that, I would say upgrading your platform (cpu/board/ram) first is the better route. Then later on get a decent mid-range gpu.
