Budget (including currency): 120$

Country: Montenegro

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Valorant, FH4, CIV VI, M&B: Bannerlords

Other details

I'm currently running the following

CPU: i5-7500

GPU: ASUS STRIX GTX 950 DirectCU II OC

MOBO: Gigabyte GA-H270-Gaming 3

RAM: 2X HyperX Fury 8GB DDR4 (2400Mhz)

SSD: Samsung Evo 250GB, Kingston 1TB

 

Now, I'm not looking to really upgrade much as I'll be moving in a year so I'll prob get a new PC there but I saw a refurbished RX 580 8GB for 100€ (which is a very good price where I live) and I'm not sure if that would give me a preformance boost compared to my GPU and in pair with my CPU so I don't bottleneck it. I play 1080p games and my monitor is locked on 80Hz so I aim for just 60FPS, I mainly play CIV VI, CS2, FH4, M&B: Bannerlords, Elite Dangerous and OW2.

Psu? Make and model

 

You will be cpu limited since its a pure 4c i5 but you'll notice the gpu upgrade for sure. Higher framerates across however thr stability of those wont be good due to the cpu

 

I have a 750W server PSU for some reason don't ask lol
