I built my first pc 2 years ago and this is it.

RAM- Ripjaws 1600 2x8gb  DDR3

GPU- Msi Gtx 1060 3gb

CPU-Amd Fx-8350

MOTB- Asus M5a78l-m PLus/Usb 3 AM3+ Socket

PSU- EVGA 500 Br

Games today are dropping fps 

 

Cyber Monday is around the corner so I want to see if I can make a new build for maybe a good price that will handle the newest games on high settings.

Budget: $1200

I want to know the best cpu and gpu I should be getting or equivalent .

Wouldn't the gpu bottleneck the Ryzen 5. and do you think I should just get the Ryzen 7? Or is it not that much worth it
