And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading:

Well It finally Happened. I go to boot up Arkham Knight and my PC could not handle it. I have built this PC using your guys recommended build in 2013. This PC has run great for the past 3 years, but it definitely needs an upgrade.

I was hoping to be able to just upgrade instead of buying a whole new rig this time. I would like the PC to be able to handle gaming at high settings and last another three years. Please give me some parts recommendations to upgrade my rig. My budget hopefully is under $1,000. Thanks for the help



Here is my current rig:

Just update the GPU to a gtx950 or 960 and your display to a 1080. You don't really need an upgrade yet.
