I uploaded my PC specs. I was thinking about upgrading or buying AMD 3600x CPU and some motherboard for it. I would like to get a new motherboard and CPU and heard that this CPU is really good. I don't know is my graphic card bottlenecks right now or not to be honest. So yea I can't buy anything like $1000 or something. AMD 3600x CPU in my country is around $200 and to get like a motherboard with it, should I upgrade my ram to ddr4 too or mine is ok right now? Sorry, I'm a real noob about this so I need all of the help I can get from you guys :) So looking for the best value to money for gaming. My only thing that I would really like is to get good motherboard that I will probable be posible to upgrade into future without buying a new one. I can't upgrade this ASRock Z77M anymore as far as I know :D

Both of these are ok after getting 3600x and DDR4 i can go to about 250 euroes

the x570 gaming pro carbon is better for future upgrades (cpu, ssd, gpu)

x570 boards support pcie 4 (for faster gen 4 m.2 ssd's and future gpu's)

x570 boards also run little cooler than b450.

x570 boards usually have better audio and internet too.

+ x570 boards look cool

But do you think it is worth that extra 100 euroes? In your experience.
