Confused on what to Upgrade

[GodLikeGill]

Budget (including currency): 240 USD 

Country: India

My current PC specs :

CPU: Ryzen 3 2200G

GPU: INNO3D GEFORCE GTX 1650 SUPER TWIN X2 OC

MB: A320M-S2H 

RAM: 2x 8 GB DDR4 3000Mhz Corsair Vengeance 

HDD: 1 TB Toshiba

SSD: 120 GB

PSU: Cooler Master 450W

Peripherals:

Monitor: LG Ultragear 24 inch , 144Hz , 1ms (24GL600F)

Mouse: Intex Mouse and Keyboard combo 400
Keyboard: Intex Mouse and Keyboard combo 400

Speaker: Dont even know , about 2$ worth random speakers

Heaphones: None , i use earphones

mousepad: non existent (cheap ass mousepad)


So that is everything I believe.
Now what im confused is that I wanted to upgrade my CPU and my motherboard , But i'll need to save another 100$ since i wanted to buy Ryzen 3600 and B450 motherboard. It would take me months to save for that and because im saving money im not upgrading my peripherals. As you can see i dont have gaming headphones/mousepad/keyboard/speakers plus i dont have a proper desk/table or a decent chair. 

Now you know my situation I want opinions on what i should approach for should i upgrade my current CPU/MB or my peripherals. I am slightly leaned towards buying peripherals a desk/chair with my money , since my current processor is decent nothing is wrong. But my CPU bottlenecks my GPU (rarely only in 10% of situations) otherwise its perfect.
Let me know what do you think !

Are you sure that your cpu bottleneck 1650? Seems strange. I would buy better GPU, not CPU.

As i mentioned "(rarely only in 10% of situations)" , it only bottlenecks only some specific conditions , for example in Witcher 3 , if i had medium settings i would get 70 fps with 100gpu usage and cpu with around 70% usage , but when i up the graphics to Ultra , due to my CPU bottlenecking my gpu with cpu all 4 cores being 100% used and gpu with 70% usage. This happens in some rare and specific situation and honestly it doesnt bother me much. But just the feeling that my full potential isnt seen due to my cpu made me wanna upgrade my cpu.

Your system is reasonably balanced IMO. Get yourself some of the peripherals that you are lacking.

 

I agree that a CPU/motherboard upgrade would do well for you. Motherboard first. Go B550 if you can for better compatibility in the future. And wait for Ryzen 4000 before upgrading the CPU.

 

After that, your GPU will be the limiting factor in the system for sure, so you'd need to look into upgrading that.

 

This is the order I would do it if I were you.

I'd either spend the money on quality of life stuff otherwise you will never get to it, such as desk, chair, headphones, mousemat etc.

 

Or keep saving up if what you have is good enough for now. I dont know the rate at which you save up but personally i would do the first if ur depending on how bad ur setup is.

I'd get the peripheral first. When I got my PC, I bought a bunch of peripherals a few months after to improve the experience without breaking the bank. Your system is balanced, CMIIW you'd need to upgrade the CPU and GPU in tandem to see significant performance uplift. I wouldn't upgrade anything in the system other than the motherboard for easier future upgrade, but then again, it won't net you performance boost.

Thanks everyone for sharing your thoughts , I also really want to buy peripherals as well , I didnt even buy Fall Guys because i wanted to save every single penny if i was gonna buy a cpu. If anyone still strongly things i should go for cpu/mb or anyone who wants to share their opinion pls do!

If you have some leftover, buying a controller would be a good idea too. Some games, such as Fall Guys, are much more fun and intuitive to play with a controller.
