Hello everyone!
I'm trying to upgrade my old pc to something better, but I can't decide what kind of CPU I should buy in order to achieve 60 fps/1080p with ultra or at least very high settings.
I watched a lot of videos looking for some benchmarks to decide, but I must say that it's pretty hard, since most of them just focus on FPS, sacrifing graphics and the rest of what the processor is capable of...
I don't have much money right now, so I want to keep my budget as low as possible and I want to keep my GTX 1070 for now, so I'm focusing on processor/motherboard and ram.
I love emulators, especially Yuzu and Cemu, and I want to be able to play at 1080/4k upscaled and 60 fps.
Also, sometimes I keep 2 games open while playing, like Magic the Gathering Arena and Final Fantasy XIV, for example, while listening to music or watching streams/YT videos...
Here's my current setup:
i5 4690k (not OC'ed)
MSI Z97 Gaming Motherboard
16gb 1666mhz of Ram
GTX 1070 EVGA OC Edition
120GB SSD Corsair Neutron (or something like that, it's from 2014)
Asus 144hz Monitor, 1080p
I'm aiming for:
Ryzen 5 3600/3600x (it's a $25 difference between them here in my country) or
i5 9600k/9400f (the difference here is high, around $180)
AsRock B450 or something similar, with RGB... (I might sacrifice the RGB)
16gb ddr4 2666mhz/3000mhz
Samsung Evo 860 SSD 480gb or Kingston 480GB a400 (kingstom is half the price here)
So please, it would be great if you guys help me deciding which setup would be better in order to make a good upgrade while saving some money.
