    Need help! What would you upgrade first?

    Thanks guys! This has been very helpful. Looks like overall with a new CPU Mobo and ram I'm looking at about 300-350. And eventually I will need a new GPU. So probably looking at 500 when it's all said and done. I am still on the fence on whether to just go back to console which is guaranteed to...

    Need help! What would you upgrade first?

    Not trying to start a debate here but it appears I would be looking at about 300-350 for I5 with Mobo or 200-230 for Ryzen with a Mobo. So how much better is that I5?

    Need help! What would you upgrade first?

    AMD Ryzen 5 1400 Processor with Wraith Stealth Cooler (YD1400BBAEBOX) Is 159 bucks on amazon. Is that a crappy one? Sorry I'm relearning all this stuff since I haven't messed with my build in 4 years.

    What would you upgrade first for gaming?

    It seems like when I play my CPU is at 100% and my GPU hovers between 40-60% so I was thinking my CPU was the problem. What about a fx8350 and a gtx1050ti. That would be 130 for the CPU and 160 for a graphics card. Hoping to be able to keep using my other components.

    What would you upgrade first for gaming?

    Hey Everyone, Below are the specs of the build. I think its time for some new hardware. Until recently I could play most games on High or ultra. Now I can tell that this setup is either not working properly or just out of date. I can't play bf1 even on low setttings it just lags constantly...

    Need help! What would you upgrade first?

    Thanks Sky Net. I'm not expecting ultra here. I just want to be able to enjoy the games. You don't think something like an fx8370 would allow me to play? I was thinking CPU now and the a gtx1050ti in the fall. If I need to buy a whole new rig this will be the end of pc gaming for me. 600-1000...

    Need advice to upgrade gaming built on a Budget

    Hey Everyone, A few years ago I built my first and only PC. Below are the specs of the build, and nothing has been changed. This computer has been awesome but I think its time for some new hardware. Until recently I could play most games on Ultra. And then BF1 came out. BF1 lags a lot even on...

    Perfect. Not sure if I should go with a small ssd Now and then add more or go with a big hdd now and add a good ssd in future. Kingston digital has a 120 ssd for 70$ that is about all I can afford for now. It would be about 10 dollars more than the 1 tb hdd

    Awesome thanks! Hows the rest of my build? Was 150 an okay price for that gpu? And is that a good choice?
