Hello everyone :)

 

I could use some help with something and i cant manage to figure it out on my own thats why i am here :)

Case:

I got a computer With:

Intel LGA 1150 Core i5 4440

MSI LGA 1150 B85M - e46

Geforce GTX760 2gb

and DDR3 8gb ramn running at 1333mhz.

 

What i am wondering here is! if i Upgrade the CPU / Motherboard and Memory. to lets say Ryzen5 3600 - DDR4 16gb (2666-3200mhz)

and ASUS ROG Strix B450-F but keep the GTX 760 for now.

 

Would my computer run better in games or in general?

I do understand the GPU will be a bottleneck but i cant afford a New GPU atm they are expencive AF!

I think what you are looking for is new storage. You didn't mention it so I'm guessing you run off of an old HDD? 

If you get a new SSD, like the 860 Evo, you'll have a way snappier feeling system. Then you can spend the rest of your budget on a more potent GPU, like a RX5500 or GTX1650S. 

Your CPU is not good but also not terrible.

I guess you could get an i7-4770 or 4790 or K version of ebay. What is you budget for this? 

You could get one of those cpu's for about $100, maybe you then have some money left for either a used RX480, RX570, 1050ti? Or a 1650 super of RX 5500 new?

If your budget is a little short, you can consider selling the cpu and gpu, then buying new better ones.

 

Have you tested your gpu in the current setup? If your gpu is currently running ant 100% under load, you won't be getting a much better gaming experiences when upgrading mobo and cpu.

 

And if you're running an old HDD, like FloRolf said: You want to get an ssd and put your OS and most used programs on that.

Sorry for the bad info.

 

@FloRolf : I do have an SSD that i installed when i got the computer.

 

@GoldenLag : My PSU is a Cooler Master B500 500W

 

@lightfire : My Budget atm is non exsisting but i do wanna get into the AMD Ryzen Family in the future thats why i asked :) I am playing on the computer now running Apex @ 50ish FPS and Escape From Tarkov (FPS no idea) but i do lag a litle in small spikes.  And after taking a look when ingame it looks like my GPU is running at 70-75% thrue out the game. spiking up to 80-83%  when Stuff is happening.

V1 or V2?

 

Either way i highly suggest changing it. Its not good. 

 

Use your budget on a new PSU and a New GPU. 

 

Your CPU is still decent.

Yes, looks like your gpu has a little left in it. But you will run into a bottleneck when getting a ryzen 5 3600. Have you considered a ryzen 5 2600? You could use the extra cash + money you could get from selling old mobo + cpu + gpu to get maybe a 1650 super or rx 5500 XT. 

The ryzen 5 3600 is a little overkill I think. Unless you plan on having a 400$+ gpu in the future, the 5 2600 will do just fine :D

Yes, in some titles, but in most there will be little to no difference, you really are GPU limited for the most part. 

 

Also when choosing PSU, please create a post in the PSU section you dont end up with something equally bad as the B500 V2

No its not. 

 

There are multiple sellers of old hardware on finn. At often very reasonable prices. 

 

Only issue is getting used PSUs. Tho there are certain offering of finn that are reasonable.
