Planning to upgrade

[sayrielsalubod]

I am planning to upgrade my PC a little bit but I don't have knowledge about PC building and compatibility. I have this PC for quite some time. The parts are:

 

Biostar A68N-5545 mobo with AMD A8-5545 processor onboard 4core 1.7G turbo up to 2.7G

1x 4gb ddr3 1333 ram

500gb hdd WD blue

Nvdia GT 630 2gb

 

I am currently playing competitive eSports like dota2, pubg lite, csgo with somewhat playable fps.

 

I would love to play Assassins creed origins and other newer games at 1080p, even at lowest settings (not after good looks, just want to enjoy playing games). 

 

I know at the least that i need toupgrade my GPU and buy some SSD and RAM. Other than that, I don't know what to do. 

 

I want some suggestions from ypu guys.

your whole pc is pretty outdated, imo you should build a whole new system, maybe something like this.

An SSD won't impact your performance, but you should get 4 more gigs of RAM.

What's your budget?  If you can only spend a bit, get the GTX 970 for like 80$ used and 4 gigs of DDR 3, even though you'll probably get CPU bottlenecked. 

 

If you can spare a bit, you should buy a new cpu, which means new ram and new motherboard... Basically replace the whole thing (~500$ for a decent 1080p machine)

Your CPU and therefore motherboard would need an upgrade. This is more than just a bit of an upgrade at that point.

What's your budget and how long are you willing to wait?
 

If you have a large enough budget (more or less $800), you might want to buy a whole new system entirely and wait a few weeks for Zen 2 to come out on july 7. Even if you don't want an AMD CPU, Intel will reduce their prices to at least match them so it's a win/win regardless of which you decide to go with.

 

If you barely have a budget to speak of, I suggest going the Used route, plenty of good parts to be found on ebay. Like Nvidia 1060 3GB or the AMD 570 4GB selling for about the same price ($80).

After that, you can pick up an extra 4GB stick of RAM and/or also upgrade the CPU/motherboard.

(If you don't want to pick out the parts yourself... Newegg sells some decent "gaming" Refurbs and regular refurb desktop at a decent price too, after which you might just need to switch out the PSU for the one you already have(if it's at least 500w) and put in a new GPU)

I don't really have that budget for a PC. $400 is what I can really afford, and being in the Philippines makea it hard to find used parts.

I'm on a $400ish budget.
