Upgrade a Gaming PC

[Tarsanga]

My main goal of this PC is to be able to play upcoming AAA games at ~60 FPS at 1080p High Setting (144Hz, 1 Monitor)

Do you guys think I need an upgrade. My budget is $300-$400 (location is in US).

 

My Current System

CPU: Intel Core i5 - 7500

GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti SC Gaming

MOBO: Gigabyte B250M-DS3H-CF

RAM: Corsair Vengeance 8GB LPX 2400MHz DDR4

SSD: Samsung EVO 850 250GB

HDD: WD Blue 1 TB

PSU: EVGA 450 B1

Well since you didn't mention settings that you want to play on then I'll say that your current PC is enough for 60 fps gaming

I'd say throw in some RAM and RGB lighting and you're good to go!

Um... no...

 

RAM is a crazy price right now and won’t affect games, going for aesthetic crap like RGB at this budget is dumb. Your build will smash 1080p60 as it is. I would however suggest a better PSU at some point

60fps on high 1080p should be doable for the 1050ti, if you want to take advantage of the 144hz monitor then i'd recommend a gtx 1070.

PSU would be needed if he overclocks, which I don't think he should/would.

The gpu to a 1070, the processor is great so there's no need to change.
