Upgrade or new Pc?

[Wurstwasser]

 

I'm going to build a new system as soon as you can get a new graphicscard, and i already started configurating and i'm pretty sure about case, powersupply storage etc.,

but now i stand before a decision:

Keep my old ryzen 5 1400 and pair it with a 3060 (I'm using a 1440p Monitor but still tell me if it's a bottleneck)

Or buy an i5 11 or 10600kf and a z490 Motherboard and have more room for a more powerful graphicscard like a 3060ti or 3070.

What do you recommend me?

does your current motherboard not support a powerful GPU ? I think it should, motherboards are agnostic when it comes to GPUs because every modern motherboard supports PCI-Ex16 nowadays

 

as for your CPU, if you Motherboard's bios can be upgraded, do that and fit a Ryzen 3600 or similar , that should be enough for gaming 

 

you can save money and invest it better in other areas of your PC ( case PSU cooling ram GPU etc )

 

just my 2 cents, good luck !

That Ryzen 1400 is quite old at this point. if you have the cash for an entire new computer, it would best to go with that. A 10600KF would perform a lot better in comparison to the Ryzen 1400 and will not be bottlenecking any current graphics card at 1440p. 

 

However, if you are looking to upgrade on a budget depending on your motherboard you can also get something like a 3900X and pair it again with pretty much any graphics card to your liking, as at 1440p there won't be any significant performance loss.

Country? Budget?

What motherboard do you currently have with your 1400? Perhaps a Ryzen 5 3600 would be a suitable upgrade for you, still a big jump in performance.

My current Motherboard is terrible, it's not an option to keep it, so i think it's the best solution to build a completely new Pc that i can keep for a long time. Thanks for all your replies, you guys helped me a lot.
