Which should I prioritize upgrading first?

[ZyonLie]

So currently I'm using an AMD FX-6300 paired with a 970 Gaming mobo y MSI, with an ASUS GTX 750. It is pretty old-dated I know, since by the time I first bought it, these parts were already previous-gen parts.

 

I only had a budget of around $600,and looking by the pricing of parts in my country, I could get a Ryzen 5 1600 + Asus ROG Strix B350 F mobo + 8GB Corsair DDR4 RAM clocked at 3200Mhz for around $550

 

or

 

a GTX 1070 of some brands, since GPU pricing is still pretty high here.

 

 

Can anyone give suggestions to which parts should I upgrade first? Thank you in advance.

IMO it's a toss up, but you may want to wait a few months and re-evaluate once nVidia releases their new model line to see if 10-series cards go down in price.  Also you could wait a little bit as well to see if 1st gen Ryzen CPUs go down more since 2nd gen Ryzen is out.

Get the CPU/Ram/Board first and then wait on the GPU. Prices should (knock on wood) be coming down soon with the launch of the new Nvidia cards rumored in like 2 or 3 months from now.

The CPU/Motherboard/RAM combo would probably be better.
The 970 is still a relatively good card and could last you another year or two. Especially if you don't mind lowering the graphics or playing under 60fps.

edit: nevermind that part, pretend you didn't see anything.
