Hello all,
My parents bought me a Cyberpower prebuilt gaming PC for my graduation a couple years ago. It is the i5-9400f/gtx 1660 combo with a b360m xtreme motherboard. I am looking to make some upgrades but not sure whether the option I am thinking of is a viable one. I was thinking of purchasing one of the top 9th gen intel CPUs since those are compatible with the motherboard I have currently and replacing the 1660 with a 3060. I should also mention I currently have 16 gb RAM and am looking to upgrade that as well. Basically, what I am asking is this a viable route to upgrading my PC? I am looking to go this route because I think it will be more cost effective plus I can upgrade it part by part rather than having to replace the mobo and thus having to get the other parts sooner rather than later. Let me know please
