So i need some help here
My gaming pc has 8gb ram and 3.7ghz intel i3 6100 and a GTX 1050ti

Should I invest in an ssd or upgrade ram or CPU. I'm trying to keep low budget
 
Solution
For 99.9% of gamers all an SSD does is improve load times. However I have read that professional gamers using high end rigs at much higher fps than a 1050Ti will be running can notice a reduction in stuttering. To be honest I was sceptical as I thought RAM would prevent this but I have actually seen it from a few sources now so think there is some truth to it.
MERGED QUESTION
Question from Csmith182 : "Guys I really need your help"



 
The only thing that an SSD will help with in games is loading screen times. That being said - I definitely think your next best move is upgrading your CPU to at least a quad-core, or better yet a quad-core with hyper-threading.

PC gamers were doing just fine for a good long while on dual core systems - but this is changing. Games are utilizing more cores nowadays, and your CPU is going to start being a bottlekneck (if it hasn't already).

Lets see what CPUs would be good..
