Hey Guys, I have an existing build with  Ryzen 5 2600 processor and  MSI Tomahawk b450 motherboard. I have paired them with 16 (8x2) gigs of ddr4 RAM (2400 Mhz) and a 250 GB SSD. Currently i have gone with 6 GB 1060 GPU and i want to increase my usage of system to streaming as well as playing. I have a feeling that the graphics i have is not enough for what i am thinking of doing. Any suggestions on what i should do about upgrading my graphics card ??

What games do you play, what's your country and much are you willing to spend?

I currently play PUBG PC. I sometimes also play Metro Exodus, Far Cry 5, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. I am from Nepal and i am willing to spend about 400$ max.

I'd advice you wait about a month and a half as the rtx3000 series is launching very soon.

Great !!! I hope it comes under my budget.

It is okay but doing 1080p stream causes frame drop issues for me. So, i am thinking of an upgrade.

It'll be fine for now I would say. Waiting will be worth it.
