Upgrading a gaming rig

[ThrunTheLast]

Hi,

 

looking for some advice for upgrading my system. I mostly game (some first person shooters like Overwatch and some builders like Avorion). I don't really know where my money would be best spent. I currently have:

CPU: i7-4820K @ 3.7GHz

GPU: Nvidia Geforce GTX 770

RAM: 16GB DDR3

Motherboard: Asus Sabertooth x79

 

I use 2 monitors at 1080p. Both at 60hz, but one goes to 120hz I just can't get that on most games I play.

 

My budget is about $700(CDN).

 

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I would say start by overclocking your CPU and upgrading the GPU

and if your performance still doesn't meet your standards, a CPU upgrade would do nicely
