Upgrading my Computer.

[McRonald]

So im planning to upgrade my computer i have a 1156 motherboard, i3 530 proccessor, i know those are 1st gen and they suck. Im planning to slowly upgrade them one by one.

 

I have a 500w psu and have a +12V/21A and deciding if ill buy 1050/1050ti/750ti. Will my psu be enough? Which should i choose? Will this be a bottle neck? Thank you.

what's the model of your psu? buy it now, if it bottlenecks you can try finding a used i5 7xx, i78xx or xeon to replace the i3.

750ti not much

1050ti Noticeable bottleneck.

I think Its a generic one. Its about 5 years old as far as i know. One Power Model: TD-500S. I will upgrade it too to a Bronze PSU.

I would not even bother tbh man. Its on 1st Gen components that are quite old now. Even finding older I5s and I7s wont really be worth it. I usually recommend against doing everything part by part. Its not effective and will give you more headaches. Adding a hard drive or more Ram down the line is perfectly fine but I think doing the entire rebuild slowly would not be wise. 

 

I am not sure if you have a budget or how much you can afford but the following is a pretty decent 1080p machine I helped my friend with as he only had about $600. Graphics card he got was the AMD 7970 which is
