Wanted to upgrade my PC after a long time and wanted to ask you for advice? The budget should be as low as possible when possible, if not it is not bad. I look forward to your advice.
My current system consists of the following components.
CPU: AMD FX-8120
GPU: AMD Radeon HD 7800 Series
SSD: none
HDD: Toshiba 1 TB 3.5 "7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
MBD: Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3
RAM: https://www.memoryten.com/p/029369.html
If you still need information just write.
With the system listed above, for example, I'm not even able to play games like Fortnite, COD Warzone or GTA V smoothly.
My goal is not to be able to play every game on Ultra. It is enough for me to be able to play the new games on medium to maximum high.
I also looked around a bit and saw CPU's like the i3-9100F and graphics cards like the AMD RX 560 or 570.
Now the question is of course what is compatible and what is not. And I also wonder if I need to change my MBD at all.
I would be happy if you could list several options, if possible, otherwise I would be happy for any help.
I'm still in favor of the gtx 1060
and the AMD Ryzen 5 1600 six-core processor with 3.20 GHz
the rest can be upgraded to 16gb ram, but it is also not that cheap. How much do you want to spend?
A total of maybe 500 euro. I'm more of a casual player, so I don't need the ultimate.
In general, you can also put together your system according to your buget
Just follow this list so you don't do anything wrong.
AMD Ryzen CPU of the 3XXX series
Cool base AM4 that creates at least 180 watts of waste heat.
Thermal paste
Mainboard socket AM4 with B450 or X570 chipset
Memory 16 GB DDR4 PC 3000, 3200 or higher.
Graphics AMD RX 580/590 or AMD RX 5700 XT
Hard drives / SSD free choice (SATA connection)
Free drives (DVD / BD, SATA)
PC housing depending on the size of the mainboard and width to the height of the selected cooler.
With RX 580/590 a 550 W power supply is sufficient, with AMD RX 5700XT it should be a 750 W power supply.
Thank you for your answer. Which CPUs do you mean exactly? Do you mean which Ryzen 3/5/7 main thing 3XXX? I'm a bit overwhelmed, I have to admit honestly.
Right, which one do you decide based on your budget.
Then I'll take a look at it first, thanks for your help.
