Hello guys and girls. I am looking to upgrade my setup this year on black friday,week,month.

I am not looking to spend a ton of money a new setup, but i am getting lag spikes on aoe 4 with my current setup which is annoying as hell....

I am looking to upgrade the motherboard and cpu since i have a cooler that fits am4 and lga1151 sockets already and same with ram.

 

Havr been looking alot on the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X, would whis be a good upgrade for my current setup? Havent used amd since 2006-7 but according to reviews it is good now. Bang for buck.

That cpu is a couple of years old, but as i said i am on a budget right now..

Can you afford an i5 12400f with a B660 ddr4 motherboard?

If not, the only viable alternative would be a B550 board and a Ryzen 5 5600 or Ryzen 7 5700X.
