What is your current specific PSU?

Should be able to play cold war as-is.

 

Battlefield 6 requirements has not been posted yet.

 

Dropping in a 4770K and OC'ing, another 8 gb of ram, and a 2060 would be a sizable upgrade if you're looking for it.

Yeah was weighing up just getting a console instead sounds like that may end up being the case

Given the state of the GPU market.. sadly I only see a console in your near future.

Otherwise I'd say upgrade the GPU, but I think that CPU might bottleneck even a 3060rtx

 

Otherwise I would save up and try to get a PC with atleast a mid-range cpu and gpu from current gen, at the very least a 3060rtx perhaps paired with a I5 11600k, however that is likely far above budget in current market.
