Hello, 

I am currently using my 3 year old gaming desktop however I would like to upgrade it a bit to give me some better FPS since I own a 180 hertz monitor but I am not able to get the full capability of it with good graphics. Since building it initially I upgraded the ram and just bought a new case since the old one is broken and I would like to try to do some better cable management in it. I live in Austria and I do not have a budget. My PcPartPicker list is this:
