Hello everyone. I am very new to computers and I need to upgrade my PC for the first time. I do not have a huge budget so I was wondering if upgrading from Intel Core i5-4460 @ 3.20GHz is worth it. A lot of these discussions I see people think it is a pretty good CPU compared to some of the ones I am looking at like the Intel Xeon E3-1246 v3 @ 3.50GHz. Any recommendations are appreciated
My biggest problem is my graphics card. I have an Nvidia GT Geforce 720 which I know I need to upgrade. My favorite game on PC that I cannot play anymore is Rust. I get around unplayable fps. I am not sure how reliable http://www.videocardbenchmark.net is simply because the marks seem to increase and decrease dramatically every day for some of the hardware. But for now I will use it and I was thinking about getting the GeForce GTX 970 or the 960 variant. I am a 16 year old kid so I would rather not spend another 100 dollars of my money on the 970 variant if it is not worth it. I am not going higher then 300$ in terms of price but maybe you guys have better deals? I am not sure if the 970/960 are too much power for the games I play. Maybe GTX 760 or 950 are better suited for me.
