this is your current pc, right?

then nothing worth upgrading. except from adding more ram

looks good to me. if you really want to upgrade, get more ram, get a better cooler, get faster monitor. (do those in that order).

Get a 144 Hz monitor

ram overclock perhaps, or new kit like vengeance LPX. First gen Ryzen was pretty sensitive to ram speed, DDR4 3000 does wonders for performance.

I believe 2499 is a typo. or some new product I havent heard of

if you currently only have 1 stick ram and not willing to sell it, by any one more ram same / faster than current ram (it will be limited to lower ram speed anyway but you can then try to overclock it~~).

Dont worry to mix rams

 

Otherwise sell the ram and buy a pair 2x8gb 3000+mhz

Good day, I bought a pair of 3000mhz 8gbx2 RAM Nighthawk. Now, the mobo manual told me to slot them on the 2nd and 4th slots but when I do that, it only reads a single stick when I boot it up. On the other hand, when i put the sticks side-by-side, they work.

When I do the 1st method, it only reads 8gb while on the 2nd one, side by side, it reads 16gb.
