Hey, 

So, Im looking For upgrade ideas, and what the best route would be.

 

Current:
CPU: AMD FX 8530 
RAM: 8gb ddr3
MotherBoard: 970 MSI Gaming
GPU: 1050ti

 

Looking to for an upgrade that would involve spending the least amount of money, Somewhere around 300$ CANADIAN!!
Meaning CPU/Motherboard/RAM.

Moneys Tight. 

 

I do not plan on playing any AAA Titles, 
Just something that can do 1920x1080 60fps (With no drops at all) Plus.

Games I play

GTA (Current FPS, 60 Can hold that, The odd drop too 50)
Overwatch (Current FPS All Low settings Vsync On, Holds 60.)
PubG (Current FPS 50/60 Ultra Low/Low)
ALL Borderlands. (Current FPS Horrible, 100 In tight places, 40/50 In populated areas...)

 

The route i was thinking (was suggested)
AMD RYZEN 3 2200G or AMD RYZEN 5 1600   ( I personally Dont see a big difference, Benchmarks say its only 1% better) But like 130$ CAD more..
ASRock A320M Mother Board
And some random 8gb DDR4 ram.

 

Around 300$CAD For the 2200G all together and 400$CAD for the 1600..

 

Help!!
Thanks

2200G is much worse than R5 1600...

Is it Over 70% worse then the 2200G?

Even when I look at Youtube videos its like a 5FPS difference on all the games I look at.

Remember the 1600 is slightly more powerful than 1500X\

I see, Plus my shit 1050 is going to play a part in lowering that even more, What would you compare a R5 1600 to If we were talking Intel? 


Thanks for the help btw.

i5 8400.

(if you need to know why it's CPU only performance it's because both of those are CPU bottleneck)
