Hello all, 

 

Was looking at doing some upgrades to my system with out changing my motherboard. I have no clue what to do would like some suggestions from people. Reason i ask is the games i am playing are having issues running at 4K @  60 fps so any suggestion would be great.

your gpu isn't made for 4k gaming, thats what I would upgrade

Your GPU and bigger PSU to accommodate that if you havent. The most effective in cost and performance upgrade for 4K and 1440p, as in those resolution youll tend to see it being GPU bounded. More pixel more rendering demand, simple as.

Posters need to know your budget and country. Your psu depends on what gpu you decide to go with.
