For sure upgrade that cpu first. I recommend an i3 7100 if you don't want to spend too much.

If he's going to spend that much, he should upgrade his mobo and get the i3, then ram.

your recomendtion requires updating the mobo mine is just a chip change.

Yeah, just noticed the socket for the mobo. Mobo should be first then. That amount of ram at those speeds won't suffice for current games.

For 1080p gaming, i would say upgrade the graphics card to at least an rx 470(480/1060 if you can) and a haswell i5 if possible. No need to upgrade your mobo or ram, lga 1150 is still very viable and 8gb is mostly enough for gaming.

8gb is pushing it. Won't matter anyways. He'll need to upgrade his mobo for all the new shit coming out. Including ram.

the 950 is still a decent card, but if you want to get the most performance, I would recommend grabbing yourself a 1050/1050ti. As for the CPU, I did once have the G3258 as well, and about a year ago upgraded to the 4960 (top end i5), great CPU but it costs a fair bit. I would recommend getting a new CPU, as two cores don't really cut it anymore, as Luke pointed out in LTTs latest video. (when I bought my 4960, I noticed a massive jump in performance, and a drop in lag while gaming). Rest of the system looks fine, no bottlenecks that jump out at me. 8GB of ram is fine, new cards (low cards in your case) dont suck up much power, so new PSU isn't required.

the upgrade from haswell to kabylake is maybe 5% faster per clock, zen will be even closer.

Yes, lets shell out an extra $90-100 dollars to change a perfectly fine motherboard and ram that still has a good upgrade path all for a 10% IPC improvement. No. Haswell cpus are still very good for gaming and are only very slightly behind skylake in gaming.

Its really not pushing it, I have 8 and can run AAA games at high-max on my ultrawide very smoothly, you really should research before you talk.

I only use about 6-7gb out of 8gb max when running BF1-doom-RotTR-R6S etc. 16gb is not a new standard for people on a budget.
