Hello everyone!

Recently i have been thinking allot about upgrading my computer.
However i do not really know what to upgrade first.

Here is my current Setup:

Intel i7 3770 (non K) @3,4 Ghz

Zotac GTX970
12 Gb of DDR3 (Taken out of my Acer Predator that i owned a few years ago)
128Gb SSD

1 TB HDD

 

Im playing on a Benq XL2411 (144 hertz).
I can run most games fluently however i want to be able to play recent titles on high settings while staying on a constant 60 fps (or higher).

At this point i dont know if i should upgrade my GPU or CPU as it is rather old.
Do you think i should switch over to Ryzen?

Any Suggestion would be appreciated!

 

Cheers,

 

Mo

Upgrading to an i7 7700K would be good but it would mean a new motherboard and new RAM.
