Budget (including currency): 500- 600€

Country:  Germany 

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: I want to play Gof of War, New tomb raider, Skyrim (With a lot of Mods), Shadow of the Colossus, Horizon Zero Dawn, Days Gone, Sekiro, Demon souls, Elden ring 

 

Hello my friends, as much as I hate to say it but my PC is getting a tad too old and slow for me. To change that I decided to save up my money (I´m a Student)  and upgrade it. Before I go into detail about what I want to do. Here is my current setup: 
- Case: Corsair Carbide Spec-01
- Power Supply: Xilence XP600R6 600 Watt (80+)
- Motherboard: Asus 970 Pro Gaming/Aura
- Prozessor: AMD FX-6300 overcl. 6x 4.0GHz
- Cooler: Alpenföhn Sella
- RAM : 16GB OC DDR3-RAM @2133MHz (2x 8GB)
- GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX1060 3GB, Palit Dual
- Hard Drive: 1000GB S-ATA3, 8GB SSD Cache

My first question is, is it even worth upgrading?
Or should I save up a little more (around 1000- 1200€ ) and buy a completely new PC?

If your case and PSU are ok for you keep them

Imo the thing you really need to upgrade is CPU mobo RAM, then you can keep your HDD but get a NVme M2 

With  600€ you can get a 13600K built but need 100EUR more for a drive :

I would definitely build a new rig. This is pretty outdated. This part list is only about 100 usd outside of budget you said you would save for, but it will last a while and is really good. https://pcpartpicker.com/user/SimplyAurallz/saved/#view=jB2yWZ hope the link works
