Are you only considering Intel or have you looked at Ryzen 3000? The Ryzen 3600X is close in performance to the i5-9600k, but has double the CPU threads and is a cheaper overall build when considering CPU, CPU cooler and motherboard costs.Ok
Oh my bad, I meant to say cpu, srry I'm new to this stuff. I'm trying to budget for a gpu, cpu, and ram.
It's an upgrade for new gpu and ram and gpu, so 500-600budget for the new system?

I never thought about that, thanks for opening my mind I never really understood amd ryzen products, I'm upgrading from a btw 1050ti and amd fx 3600, my budget will be around $500. Could you possible recommend me a gpu and cpu that would be a good upgrade for me?Are you only considering Intel or have you looked at Ryzen 3000?

If you plan to keep the system for more than 2 years, you are going to want at minimum 12 CPU threads with 16 being more ideal for future games coming to the PS5 and Xbox Series X. Ryzen 4000 was suppose to be coming in July, but will probably be delayed due to the virus. It may still be coming this years if you want to wait.
$500 won't get you far if you need to replace more than just motherboard, CPU, memory CPU cooler and GPU. You could go to https://pcpartpicker.com/ , look over the already created builds, make your own build based on one and replace some for a cheaper build. If you are a very tight budget you could get the Ryzen 5 1600 AF (slightly downclocked 2600) and a GTX 1650 Super which is around double the performance of a 1050 TI or 1660 Super for $50 more at 80-100% faster than a 1050 TI.I never thought about that, thanks for opening my mind I never really understood amd ryzen products, I'm upgrading from a btw 1050ti and amd fx 3600, my budget will be around $500.

Thanks for leading me to the right place, I'm not sure if i need a new mother board, and possibly other things, I cant find out what my mother board it at the moment but idk if it will be good enough. But I really needed this as a beginner. Bless you and have a good day.$500 won't get you far if you need to replace more than just motherboard, CPU, memory CPU cooler and GPU.

I don't know at the moment but I can get back to you but my storage is 1tb or 2tb I'm not sure.so, motherboard/cpu/ram/gpu for $500
What do you have for the psu? storage?
Thanks I just thought about getting ram gpu and cpu, I will have to adjust my budget.Definitely will need a new board and new DDR4 ram for any recent CPU.
I agree, I bought this as a pre-built for a beginner pc, so that is probably the case.your current motherboard don't take any new cpu. only old am3/am3+ cpu
Assuming you can find the 1600 AF (YD1600BBAFBOX) at $85 vs $120 for the 2600, it's an automatic recommend from me for budget gaming systems. With 3.2Ghz base/3.6Ghz boost on the 1600 AF vs 3.4Ghz/3.9Ghz on the 2600, it's going to be a 3-6% actual performance difference in games.Excellent prices on R5-2600/B450 boards these days...
GTX1650 is a popular starter (decent gaming entry level) card....
