    Second Hand i7 7700 ($240) vs New i5 8400 and New Motherboard ($253-$280)

    What component should I upgrade first?

    At the moment I am ROCKING a Pentium G4560 and an RX 460 2GB with 8GB DDR4. But I want to upgrade so I can play PUBG at 60 FPS on low-medium 1080p, as well as perhaps Battlefield 4 and 1 at 1080p 60fps. I am planning on getting an i5 8400, but then I'd need to get a new motherboard, and I'm...
