I currently have an PC with Ryzen 7 2700, B450 mobo, GTX 1060.
I am thinking whether it is worth going for completely new AM5 build or upgrading current one, given that my goal is to have stable 144fps for games like Apex Legends, Call of Duty, Fragpunk etc all on low.
Since I don't plan to upgrade my 144hz monitor any time soon, I wonder if it is a reasonable financial decision to purchase new AM5 PC build or get something like 5700x3d with RTX 3070/4060 and forget about new build for another year or two.
What would you advise both from technological and financial (bucks per efficiency) point of view?
My budget would be around 800USD.
Current specs:
AMD Ryzen 7 2700 (stock cooler)
Gigabyte GTX 1060 6Gb
ASUS TUF B450M-PRO GAMING
Kingston HyperX FURY Black 8Gbx2 , 3200 MHz, 16(CL)-18-18-32
Zalman 600W
144Hz MAG241C screen
