Hardware Next upgrade?

blockman765 · Feb 16, 2019

Hello everyone!

I have some money to spend and I'd like to put it into my computer.
My current specs are:
Ryzen 3 1200 4 core 3.1 ghz
8gb ram
Nvidia gtx 1050ti 4gb

What should I upgrade to get the biggest boost for my buck? My budget is $260-$280

Thank you!

Upgrade to aeast a ryzen 1600 or 16GB of ddr4 ram. Either one will give you better performance

So, I should keep my gpu then?

Your graphics card is fine for most games at 1080p. A processor upgrade will give you the biggest improvement. This is assuming you’ve already got a SSD for booting/games.

I would say more than 8GB RAM is unnecessary unless you find yourself filling up your RAM easily (e.g too many tabs in Chrome).

yes. the 1050ti is fin like Originality just said. if you want a deecent little 1080p gamming machine, upgrade to a 1500x or 1600.
