Upgrade

[Hesper]

Hi! I'm planning to upgrade my cpu or gpu to have better gaming experience on 1080p but only have budget for 1 upgrade.

I currently have R3 2200g paired with a gtx1050ti OC.

Planning to upgrade to R5 2600 and RX 580

 

I want to ask if you have any better suggestions that is on the same price range?
The motherboard is MSI a320m pro vh plus (planning to change into b450 soon, i want to upgrade the cpu and gpu first)

 

Current specs:

R3 2200g

GTX1050ti OC

16GB RAM

 MSI A320M Pro VH Plus mobo

Seasonic M12II-620 Bronze 80 power supply.

 

Thanks in advance!

 

 

P.S. I mainly play PUBG, Forza Horizon 4, Farcry New Dawn, Dota, GTAO and AC Odyssey

You'll need almost an entire system upgrade....

• CPU
• Mobo
• GPU
• PSU

I'll recommend gpu upgrade first. I'll recommend something like a used vega 56, 1070, 1070 ti. They go around for about $180-220 range.

Or if you want something used in $100 price range, then RX570 goes for around $70 and RX480/580 go for around $100.

 

For the cpu upgrade, i'll recommend something like a Ryzen 5 1600 AF. It is basically a Ryzen5 2600 with first gen IMC. It is based on 12nm. Also, it goes for $85 on amazon.com

 

For PSU, I'll recommend CX/CXM series from corsair or Masterwatt series from cooler master.

 

For mobo, I'll recommend any one of the new max series board from msi.
