My current system is

CPU - i5 3570K @ 3.4 GHZ
RAM- 8 GB Dual Channel DDR3 @ 799 HMHZ
Motherboard -ASRock Z77 Extreme4 (CPUSocket)
Graphics- 1023 mb NVIDIA Geforce GTX 650Ti( Gigabytes)
Storage- 232 GB Samsung SSD EVO 250GB (SATA(SSD))
931 GB Seagate (SATA)
CASE-Soprano
PSU- Aereon ASroc ASC-700 W

I am trying to play sniper ghost warrior contracts 2 but having some graphics issue , so now I am thinking that upgrade is the best option
My question is-

or
I can use some old parts to save some $$$

thanks

I doubt you will be playing future games comfortably on a GTX1660 or RTX2060 for 5+ years. If GPU prices weren't completely wacko right now, an RTX2060 would be worth $300 AU at most, I'd recommend waiting it out for a while on the GPU side. Between the number of countries likely to legislate or ban crypto, crypto values coming down, Nvidia blocking crypto on their new cards (at least for now), Ethereum going proof-of-stake and whatever else may happen, I'd expect GPU prices to start coming back down to more palatable (but still elevated due to on-going component shortages) levels by the end of the year.

so which one u suggested for above upgrade?

what abt this PSU and RAM

https://www.mwave.com.au/product/gskill-trident-z-rgb-16gb-2x-8gb-ddr4-3200mhz-memory-ab94981

That's a super deal on that PSU even by US dollar standards.


This will save you a few dollars on the RAM.
