First Gen Ryzen is about directly comparable to 4th gen intel products.

Ryzen at 4+ghz is around 160 cb

In synthetic tests yeah, but I was curious and looked up some gaming benchmarks and ryzen usually comes out on top. Not by much of course.

Just find a used 980ti on the cheap or a soon to be relatively cheap 1080ti

Although if you're only gaming at 1080p 60hz upgrade your monitor before buying a new GPU

 

 

Don't i need a better gpu to be able to run higher hz/ and res?

CPUs bottleneck refresh rate/max fps
GPUs bottleneck resolution/quality

 

Do you only have a 1080p 60hz display?

And what's your budget for upgrading? Should probably upgrade your monitor before you upgrade your GPU. As a modern GPU is going to be fairly overkill for 1080p 60hz gaming.

I used a 1070 with my 4790k for 1080p 60 with max details most games, you should be fine with that or a 1070 ti.

your cpu will be the bottleneck on any GPU that is equivalent to a GTX 1070 or higher

I have a friend running a 3770K and a 1080 SLI with no bottlenecks.

Then you should easily be able to get a monitor upgrade with a new GPU assuming prices translate

 

a used 980ti would be better, probably around 300 EUR though?

 

an RX 570/580 is enough for higher fps at medium-high settings for 1080p gaming anyways

 

assuming prices translate from the german part picker
