What would you upgrade

[Moglakos]

If you had this rig and ~200€ to upgrade it, which part would you upgrade? Link me some parts you would add/change!

The GPU, I would look at the RX 470 8GB or GTX 1060 6GB. 

[Simon771]

I would buy SSD.

Something like samsung evo 850 250gb for your OS, programs and few games.

 

Later I would sell that GPU and buy something better. I see you have 1080p monitor, so I would upgrade to RX 480 if I were you.

470 8GB = 250€

1060 6GB= 280€, way out of my budget!

What about the 1050Ti 4GB then?

But you can still get some money back once you sell that R9 270.

850 Evo 250GB = 110€

580 Evo 50GB = 180€

P.S. I'm not that hardcore gamer, I'm playing all the games I want 60FPS at medium/high!

Get the RX470 4gb, the 8gb isn't worth it.

Feel the same, I don't think the 470 has the power to consume all 8GB of VRam and keep high FPS...

Well like I said, I would upgrade to SSD now, and later go with GPU upgrade.

 

Also what's the main thing bothering you right now with your PC? Are your fps too low? Is it working too slow in general?

[LawrenceBarnes2013]

How come you guys are suggesting the 470 instead of the 480 next to the 1060 ? i mean 1060 and 470 are different worlds

Because they're out of his price and the 470 is still almost double the performance of the 270. 

[Megah3rtz]

Also the 470 isn't actually that far off from the 1060 3gb after the relive update.

if the 480 is out of his budget than the 1060 is daydreaming right ?! it is more expensive specially the 6GB models (worth it though)

1) I really want to buy an SSD, but I'm a bit worry since my previous SSD died twice so that's the reason I rock an HDD. I was thinking 850 Pro which is ultra fast and has 10year of warranty (don't think I'm gonna write the 100TB or w/e they say)

2) Was thinking to get a Liquid Cooler to OC the fuck out of my CPU since my 212 Evo @4.3Ghz reached 80°C and I don't feel comfortable with that number.

3) Was thinking to buy the Evolv ATX TG, sell my Enthoo Luxe and then buy something with around 160€ (SSD or AIO), but as I can see most of you want me to change my GPU, don't think I need that since as you said I rock an "old" 1080p monitor. 

4) I'm taking all your advises in consideration, so feel free to suggest me anything you feel it would improve my PC performance!

Get an 850 evo 250gb + liquid cooler if you're happy with your GPU then

Depends where he lives, in the UK a 3gb 1060/4gb 480 are around the same price, and a 6gb 1060/8gb 480 are around the same.

Any AIOs you have in mind? I'm looking for "dead silent" pump... I was thinking for the kraken X62 but it's not available at my country and the Deepcool Captain 360, which I haven't read very positive comments on the internet,

In witch case a 4GB 480 is a much better bet cause 3gigs is just not enough nowadays. And this is coming from an nvidia fanboy.

Well difference between 850 and 850 pro isn't that huge.

I have no idea which SSDs you bought before, but I had 4 differend of them ... never any problems.

And if you buy brand new SSD, you can always use warranty to get new one in case it dies.

 

For AIO cooler ... I had Kraken X31 and pump wasn't dead silent. I was able to hear it, but it wasn't so annoying. So I guess X61 have the same noise.

With Kraken X62 they made some improvements about noise, but it's too bad that it's not avaliable in your country.

Well the only game so far I have played and maxed out the Vram was the Battlefield 1 beta, so I don't think the 3GB won't do my job... And this comes from an AMD (at GPUs) fanboy.

What other options are there that fit your budget?

I had a Corsair GS128GB if I remember correct.

About X61 I know the pump makes noise I listen to that at HardwareCanucks video and the X62 is "dead silent" compare to X61...  (and NZXT gives 6 years warranty for their AIOs)

As far as i've seen, Rise of the Tomb Raider, The Division, Mirror's Edge Catalyst, the witcher, GTA V and others do eat up more than 3GB maxed out, but then it also depends on your res.
