[idkpc]

Budget $300(would like to stay under as much as possible) 

Country: U.S.A

esports, some AAA games (farcry 5 doom eternal ect) 1080p

Other details; i have a i5 3470 16gb ram and a rx 560(2gb), ive been trying to plan out an upgrade but price on both the use market and the new market aren't great. so far i will proably upgrade my cpu to a i5 3570k, but for the gpu im kinda lost im looking at an rx 570 (4gb) or 1060 (3gb) because the prices don't seem horrible. plz help if you can

Don't do it. 

 

1) the money you'll spend won't be worth much of an upgrade

 

2) nothing's even available 

 

I'd stick with what you got, till April or May. A 3470 to a 3570 is not really an upgrade, even an i7 3770 wouldn't cut it for Doom or FC5. Your RX560 should be OKAY for a little while though. 

 

a 3GB 1060 would be a horrible buy in 2021. Wait till you can get a 1660 Super or 5600XT.

 

Nvidia went on the record at "CES" saying that regular stock isn't a reality till at least April
