help Looking To "Upgrade"

[DWaggoner97]

Budget (including currency): Well my budget would depend on what exactly would need to be upgraded but lets cap it at $400 for now? (seen Linus build one for $900 so i hope this isn't too low to start)

 

Country: USA (TX)

 

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: (Med Graphic, High FPS is ok) Call of Duty, Borderlands, Skyrim, Minecraft, Apex Legends

 

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 

(I'm not sure what most of the details mean but this is all listed from Speccy)

https://gyazo.com/5ea61df3dafa4a29f9eea99d85a9e866
OS: Win 10 64-bit

CPU: AMD FX-4100, Zambezi 32nm Technology

RAM: 32GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 803Mhz

Motherboard: Gigabyte Technology GA-78LMT-USB3 (Socket M2)

Graphics: 1024MB ATI AMD Radeon HD 6670 (XFX Pine Group)

Storage: 931GB Western Digital WDC Disk Drive (SATA)

I'm unsure on where the specs sit as far as gaming and that's what i want to do. I don't think they're horrible but I just don't get the frames I'd like to in most games I play. I know the ram is overkill but it was a gift, I'd gladly sell half if it means adding a few extra $$ towards upgrading what I have. I currently don't have the budget to blow $1000 on system and would like to build off what i already own. If you have any suggestions on what i should do or what i should purchase to increase my gaming experience please leave me a comment!

 

IF ANY OTHER INFO IS NEEDED PLEASE ASK! I'LL REPLY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!

Honestly I would wait and save up some more, then do a full system upgrade. All of your system is sort of balanced in a weird way, in that it's all equally outdated.

well if u don't mind going used u should be able to upgrade to a ryzen 5 1600 or the 2600 or the 1600af  if u can find it for $85 new in stock. The used 1600s of ebay are around $100 and the 2600 is about $125 if you can right try to find a new 1600af for $85 Get a $125 b450 motherboard like the msi b450 tomahawk max new. $50-$70 for 16gb of ram, and finally get a used rx 580 8gb or 480 8gb for around $125 usd  of ebay. This should all equal about $300-$400. Also if u need it add a ssd to the list just makes sure it has a dram cache. Also if u can wait you should since their are new cpus and gpus coming out in a few months.

Just no for that cpu/board combo. That Asus board is a steaming pile of crap.
