So I’ve had my PC for a good number of years now, and it’s noticeably starting to struggle with new AAA games. So I’m looking to find out what parts of my PC are holding me back, so I know what I should prioritise upgrading first, and what to upgrade it to.
The main focus of upgrading would be to run most (if not all) more recent games on high settings and at 1440p and at at least 60 FPS (ideally more though). I know this will most likely be expensive but any ideas people have would be great!
Anyway, my specs at the moment are:
GPU: GeForce GTX 970 (4GB)
CPU: Intel Core i5-4690K @ 3.5 GHz
Ram: 8GB
Motherboard: MSI Z97 GAMING 5
Monitor: 2560 x 1440, 144Hz
edit:
HDD: WDC WD20EZRX-00D8PB0
SSD: SanDisk SDSSDA240G
Thanks in advance.
I’m also in the UK if that makes a difference.
For budget, I’m not 100% sure, just give me some ideas first, thanks.
