Yeah go for r 3600 or wait. And upgrade your gpu after, even if those games are cpu dependent you should still get better gpu. 1660ti or 5700. But we will see that in the future.

So i have an i3 4130 and i was wondering which upgrade is better a i7 4770k(which is 183$ in my country) or save some money and buy a ryzen 5 2600(gigabyte B450m DS3H,GoodRam 2x8GB 3000Mhz CL17, Ryzen 5 2600 and the total price of this is 320$)

yeah, save money for that r5 2600. Or save like 50-100 bucks more (depends where you live) to get r5 3600. There is a big difference beetween r5 2600 and r5 3600.

 

Waht gpu are you using?

I Use my knowledge as business owner and self taught technician aswell as an AI to help people. AI might be controversial but it actually works pretty well 90% of the time.

i am using a Sapphire nitro rx460 4gb but now i want to upgrade the cpu and if i wanted to buy the r5 3600 i would need to save about 50 bucks. next upgrade after the cpu would be upgrading the rx460 to a 1060 6gb or rx580 8gb

Rx 460 4gb is well decent. But save for r5 3600 or wait for under a year for amd forth gen of ryzen.

Ryzen is better option. It gives you more current upgrade path, and 4770K has its limits, so going for 4790K is actually better option if you would do that.

Used? I mean these are both 5-6 year old CPUs at this point. If you are looking at new pricing, you get really odd numbers.

yes,a used i7 4790k in my country costs 181 bucks (cheapest i could find and used from a side that i would not trust but from the side that is would trust is 233 bucks) and the r5 3600 costs 233 bucks (from a good source brand new)

But consider that for Ryzen you need new mobo and RAM. But if you can save for platform upgrade, go for platform upgrade.
