I want to upgrade my 5 year old PC

[Nidingr]

Hello!

 

I'm thinking about upgrading my gaming PC. It will mostly be used for AAA-games, Apex etc. I want high graphics with good FPS in 1080p. I have a 1080p 144hz monitor, and I will also use the PC on my 4k samsung TV, but I'm not looking to play in 4k.

It's kinda hard choosing a budget because I live in another part of the world.

 

This is my current setup:

CPU: Intel Core i5-4670K 3.4 GHz Quad-Core Processor (overcloked @ 4.4GHz)
CPU Cooler: Corsair H90 94 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler
Motherboard: Asus Z87-A ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
Memory: Crucial Ballistix Elite 8 GB (1 x 8 GB) DDR3-1866 Memory
Video Card: XFX Radeon R9 280X 3 GB  (Not installed ATM)
Power Supply: Corsair CX 600 W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-modular ATX Power Supply 

I currently have RX590 Fatboy installed in my PC. I haven't bought this card yet, just testing.

 

I've looked at these components as upgrades:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 3.6 GHz 6-Core Processor 
Motherboard: Asus ROG STRIX X470-F Gaming ATX AM4 Motherboard 
Memory: G.Skill Trident Z RGB 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 Memory

*Retention bracket kit for H90 cooler

I need some advice on the GPU. As I said, I have the RX590 Fatboy in my computer ATM. But maybe there's a Nvidia card that's more bang for the buck. Both my screens support FreeSync, that's basicly why I chose the RX590 card.

Should I just keep the 590 card or am I better off putting a little more money in a 2060?

 

Thanks in advance!

if you are gonna update. scarp the 2060 series, the rx 5700 and 5700 xt are better value and cost the same.

how much are you paying?

 

you are most likely better of getting a X570 aurous elite for 200$ equivelent.

thats overpriced. 

 

Bequiet Pure power 11 600 cm, Formula gold 550w, MWE gold 550w or TX550M or cx 550 would be cheaper options (depending on region).

Scrap the 2060 /2070

 

5700 (XT) much more bang for your buck and both can handle 1080p 144

Okey. I will probably go for the 5700 instead. 

 

The X470 costs 240$. X570 elite version costs 295$. 

The prices in Norway is a bit higher.. I did find MSI MPG X570 Gaming for 245$ tho. I'll probably go for that instead.

either one of these would be a better choice than the MSI MPG x570.
