Alright, This is my first time here and finally decided to join the forums to get some help from you guys.

 

So I bought a set up for $60 from Craigslist that came with the PC, a monitor, keyboard/mouse combo, and it's doing well so far.

Here are the specs:

CPU: AMD Athlon II X4 635

Motherboard: N-Alvorix-RS880-uATX (Alvorix) 

GPU: HD 4200 (Integrated graphics)

RAM: 4GB DDR3 1333mhz

Storage: WD Black 750GB Hard Drive

PSU: Antec 380W Earthwatts (I upgraded the PSU)

Case: Rosewill FBM-01 (I also bought new case from Amazon)

OS: Windows 10 Home

More in depth info can be found here in this link if interested:

I want to do some gaming and so I want to upgrade my CPU and my GPU. I've seen a couple of benchmarks and the CPU can handle a GTX 750 TI but I want to get more out of my system.

Any suggestions on the CPU and GPU upgrades. Planning on playing Battlefield 1, Fallout 4, and The Witcher 3 at low-medium settings if it can, and couple of esports titles at high frames. I also want to point out that the motherboard supports, according to the link above, CPUs with a 95w TDP.

Thank you guys in advanced.

How much is your budget for the upgrade?

-Frequencies DON'T represent everything and in many cases that is true (referring to Individual CPU Clocks).

 

Mention me if you want to summon me sooner or later

My head on 2019 :

Note 10, S10, Samsung becomes Apple, Zen 2, 3700X, Renegade X lol
