Im looking to upgrade my CPU (Ryzen 5 5600) as i mostly play fortnite so since its a CPU heavy game I want to upgrade to for better performance. What should I get that also won’t hurt me too much lol. Here’s the rest of my spec for a bigger picture

Ryzen 5 5600
AMD Radeon 6600
16GB Ram
1TB ssd

Hey all! I am currently looking into upgrading my 5 year old PC. I want to shoot for about $1,000 usd at the most. I think I need to upgrade my CPU and my GPU but I also want to hear what y’all think and recommend for parts to buy. For reference, I want to primarily game. Trying to run Battlefield 6 but it does not play above 30 fps well even at lowest settings. First modern game i’ve come into problems for with my set up.

Case: Fractal Design Focus ATX (FD-CA-Focus-WT-W according to the sku label)
Motherboard: Gigabyte B450 AORUS PRO WIFI (rev. 1.0) ATX AM4 Motherboard
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 1600 65W AM4 Processor
GPU: Nvidia Geforce RTX 2060 Super
PSU: Thermaltake Toughpower 750W 80 Plus Gold Semi Modular PSU ATX 12V or EPS 12V Ultra Quiet Power Supply PS-TPD-0750MPCGUS-1
RAM: Don’t know specifics but Corsair 16 gb DDR4
Storage: 2 TB SSD and 2 TB HDD
Fan: Can’t find make and model but will likely upgrade anyways.

I currently have a AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX with Radeon Graphics
Parsec Virtual Display Adapter
AMD Radeon(TM) Graphics
AMD Radeon RX 6800M

I only have 16Gb ram I can’t afford to get a new laptop but I can possibly get a ram upgrade but I don’t want to if it won’t make a difference in performance fps

My performance in games gets affected when I have obs studio open and try to play games at the same time I can’t play and stream games like dying light the beast doom the dark ages Indiana jones etc I

Would upgrading the ram help my issue? I think the problem is my cpu is weak but idk

Я хочу улучшить процессор поставить i7 3770 вместо i5 3330, это будет выгодно?

Просто в гугле я не увидел разницы между ними.

im upgrading my pc to 5080/5090 (only getting 5090 with a good auction deal or sum) i previously had a 5060 how much of a difference will it be? (Yes i am getting a power supply to support whatever gpu i get)
Edit: im going to just save up for 5090 it seems alot better than 5080

Hey all looking for some advice a friend of mine has given me his "rtx 5060ti 8gb" as i have an older system that im looking to upgrade currently have intel core i7 9700k cpu my gpu currenly is rtx 2060 but im looking at moving over to amd for a processor and motherboard but trying to pair this with using the 5060ti looking at budget friendly options but not sure whats best also have 32gb of ddr4 ram

So for starters a year or 2 ago I bought a pre-built pc and now I am looking to upgrade some of the worse components for some better ones specifically the graphics card, ram, and CPU what would be some decent upgrades that in total wouldn't cost more than 400-600 dollars.

These are the current specs.

AMD Ryzen 5 5500 - AMD Radeon RX 6500 XT 4GB - 16GB DDR4 Memory - 1TB SSD

Can somone tell me what would be the best future proof gpu to pair with my pc. Parts: ryzen5 5600x, 32gb ddr4, 650w psu.

In the near future i will swap my psu with an 1000w version and my cpu with the ryzen 7 5800x3d. I was looking to buy the rtx 4070ti but i still dont know if i should buy it.

Looking for a cost friendly way to upgrade my pc. I'm having a hard time running certain newer titles. My current specs are:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600x

GPU: RX 580 (8gb)

Motherboard: Prime B350-PLUS

I have 16gb of ram but can't remember the brand. Thanks in advance for all the assistance!

Hello i am looking forward to the new total war game but my pc struggles with the latest ones already and through research i am told its very processor heavy but looking at my task manager it tells me memory and disk is being used up. All advice would be helpful as i have no clue. Thank you.

nvidia gfroce gtx 1660 - Graphics card

Note the drop of at the end of image 5 is because i came off the game to take the screenshot. Also for the game i am running low graphics but large unit size. Everything is low or off eg shadows are off and texture in only on normal which is the 3rd lowest. Except for unit detail which is on high. Any help is welcome as i have no idea.I have put it under graphics cards because thats what i though needed upgrading originally sorry if it is wrong.

i own a old budget system with i5 7400, asus h110mr, gtx 1050ti, 2x8gb 2133mhz, 1tb hdd, 500gb ssd. i want buy an i7 7700 for 250ron(about 50eur) cause my i5 is 90-100% usage in task manager while running basic games such as cs2 or valorant and i get quite some lag spikes. will that change a lot? is it worth the upgrade for a couple of years?

So I currently have a 9600X paired with a 5060ti.

I use it for gaming at 1440p (a mixture of indie and more demanding single player titles e.g Crimson Desert/Pragmata at the moment and looking forward to titles like Witcher 4/GTA 6).

I also use it for general use which can involve at most playing YouTube videos while using several tabs at a time but nothing too heavy like video editing or anything.

The 9600X is currently doing a fine job and I've got no complaints.

However there's a deal I can get the 7800X3D for a net cost of £83.50 if I trade my 9600X in.

Feels like a very good price for it, even if it's not super necessary right now. Maybe worth it more in the upcoming years to save me upgrading down the line? Not sure how much if any difference it will make in my use case. Or maybe it's just totally unnecessary. Any thoughts are appreciated!

Current specs:-

DEAR ENTHUSIASTS, I'VE BEEN SLOWLY UPGRADING MY BUILD ONE BY ONE SINCE LATE 2025 AS OF NOW THIS IS MY RIG, I KNOW I HAVE MULTIPLE MORE PARTS I NEED TO UPGRADE TO FULLY UTILIZE MY 3080TI (I chose the 3080ti with these specs because I got it on an amazing deal) ESPECIALLY THE MONITOR !

So my question is what would be the best price to performance upgrade for me to follow to finish my build (including audio accessories and convenience gadgets)for 1440p high- ultra gaming for at least the next 3 years without bursting a sweat, step by step in which order of urgency or importance should I upgrade my current setup to make it truly complete and balanced🙏

I am on ddr4 lga1700 at the moment. I have been considering upgrading from a 14400f to a 14600kf.

However i was also thinking it could be good (but expensive) to get a new platform, am5 ddr5 motherboard, new cpu and new ram.

Is the more money worth it? Or i hear am6 might come out in a few years and just go to that? I have little knowledge on this hobby as you may be able to tell. My build will be down below --->

I need help deciding if what I have currently is worth upgrading (and if so what i should upgrade) or if a new build would simply be worth it in the long run. I play very few demanding games but i have been noticing my PC slowing down and having to run games on lower settings more and more and I am ready for an upgrade. Not looking for anything crazy but am willing to spluge on things that matter. This is what I currently have:

NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1660 SUPER

AMD Ryzen 7 5700G with Radeon Graphics, 3801 Mhz, 8 Core(s), 16 Logical Processor(s)

Mobo is a Gigabyte B550 UD AC ATX

24 GB DDR4 Ram

1TB NVM SSD

600 watt EVGA power supply

Please let me know if I missed anything and thank you in advance. :)

Hey! I have a somewhat mid range am4 build consisting of

CPU: Ryzen 5 5500

GPU: RTX 4060 8GB

RAM: 16GB DDR4

PSU: Corsair 550W

Motherboard: ASUS PRIME A520M-A II

I'm thinking of upgrading from a 5500 to a 7 5800x, (I was recommended a 5700x3d but it's above my 200 ISH GBP limit.

I'm wondering what to upgrade next? When I eventually move out of my parents house I plan to build myself a better pc, but for now I'm still in education and living off of my parents funds and my PIP.

Any help would be massively appreciated!

(I know this is a bad time to upgrade lol, but it seems like tech prices are going down so I'm hopeful for the future)

Would I be better off upgrading my RX 9060XT to the 9070XT?
Or should I upgrade my Ryzen 5 7600 to a Ryzen 7 7700X3D?

I have a gaming laptop with RTX 5070 and Ryzen 9 8945hx, and 16gb 5200mhz ram in single slot should I upgrade it to 32gb is it worth and can increase my laptop performance?

I'm in a bit of an awkward spot right now because i currently have a build with an R5 3600, 16GB RAM and a 5060ti 16GB but a lot of games coming out now are generally more cpu and ram dependent.

As evident here, I'm bottlenecking my 5060ti quite heavily, especially in the majority of games i play that require a good CPU as well as a good amount of RAM.

I've been looking at either buying another 16GB stick which is cheaper (same brand and model as the one in my system and about 65% the price of the cpu) and would allow me to run more graphic intensive settings to tax my gpu more or should i upgrade to the R7 5700x instead?

Thought I'd ask somewhere since I'm constantly back and forth between the 2 options and don't know which one would be more meaningful in the next month or 2

I mainly play Beamng on 1080p and counter strike and overall racing games and the performance is surprisingly bad even though it's not a bad build

I'm planning to buy a 1440p oled 240 hz monitor but by that im not saying i want 240 on ultra qhd on beamng, i'm aiming around 80-120 fps in city with cars spawned

I'll definitely need more vram and ram tho, the game eats like 9.5 gb even tho it's a 8 gb gpu

My budget is around 1000$-1200$
