I did a relatively cheap build in 2018, the components are as follows:
-rx 460 4gb
-intel i3-6100
-mobo: asrock h110m (this guy https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B01AVPBOFI/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 )
-8 gb of ram
-430w power supply
Over the years it's started to slow down, and I know the cpu especially is having a hard time. When I'm playing Minecraft (which is really the only game I play) it quite literally gets very high (around 70-90% usage)
I'd really like to upgrade it, I was thinking/hoping for an rx580 for a graphics card replacement and potentially an i5-9400 for a cpu replacement, although I really am not certain about the cpu replacement. I'm weary of the replacements though, and I've held off on doing so for a long time because I'm not sure my motherboard supports it? I was wondering if you guys could let me know what the best replacements would be for this motherboard or even if what I have in mind would work. My budget is relatively low, I am only looking to spend about 500CAD or so on upgrades, but I also don't want to have to replace my motherboard because it seems like a pain in the arse.
Sorry for the bit of rambling, but recommendations for replacements would be absolutely appreciated. Like I said before, I only really play Minecraft and do recordings of it occasionally, however I'd still like to get great performance for it.
Thanks!!
edit: sorry if this is in the wrong section by the way, I couldn't find where else this question would apply so I just put it here
