Hello i need an advice

[Nikileo]

My budged is 1000 euro (yes im from europe) and my current build is i5 2400, ati radeon hd 6850, 8giggs of ram and yea.. i want to buy a 144hz monitor + r9 390. I like Benq XL2730Z cus its 1440.. but i dont know is it worth.. My current display is 1680x1050. Im using my computer for CS;GO, LoL only cuse my GPU is so old.. 🙁 And is my CPU good enough for gaming right now or i must buy a new one like i5 6600 or i7??

your cpu will work fine for most games. it still has a reasonable single core. a r9 390 and a 144hz monitor will work good and be a nice addition

My advice is double your RAM, leave your CPU alone and buy a large, good quality power supply for your r9 390. When you have more money then look for a CPU+MB upgrade. IMO 100hz+ monitors are like 4K TVs, the difference in quality is imperceptible to the human eye, however each to his own...

dont double your ram right now. 8 gigs is more then enough for almost everything. changing to 16 gigs will give im absolutely no more performance.

the r9 390 is a very good gpu. one of the fastest on the market

what psu do you have now?

ah its CM 500W one i cant tell u right now more .. its not good enough i think

Definitely upgrade to a 750 watt PSU, I find Corsair to be good but there are a number of good PSUs around. Check the Toms guide on PSUs. Still think you should get more RAM, it's so cheap, you might only use 50% of the new RAM but its the cheapest way to upgrade PC performance and you can use it when you upgrade your CPU/MB.

that should run it fine. if you dont have much of a overclock on it. however it cant hurt to get a bit of a upgrade for it. psu's should last you many builds from now

leave it 8 gigs is enough for now eventually when you upgrade the mobo+cpu you can get new ram
