Hi Guys,

I hope this is the right place to ask this question. I’m started to upgrade my system, I just bought a new GPU (RTX 2060) and now I’m wondering whats worth upgrading.
I built the PC myself, I think I made some mistakes by deciding on the components, to be honest, I have limited knowledge on hardware. So I was hoping for getting some help here.

I only use the PC for gaming and currently, it’s only Apex Legends and Overwatch.
So to the question what should I upgrade or are there any "bottlenecks" in my system?

CPU: I5 6600k
Motherboard: ASUS Z170 Pro Gaming
Ram: Hyperx-fury 2x 8gb ddr4-2133
SSD/HDD: Samsung 850 EVO
GPU: Gainward Geforce RTX 2060 Phoenix GS 6gb
PSU: Cooler Master Hyper Tx3
Chassis: NZXT Source 340
OS: Windows 10 64bit Home.
 
Solution
If you play only Apex Legends and Overwatch you are fine.
If you want to reduce bottleneck in other games your best bet would be to sell that i5 and buy i7 7700k.
But,before selling i5 make sure to install latest BIOS on that motherboard to be sure that it will support i7 when you install it.
