Build Advice Plz help me figure out what I need!?

[Bruins77]

Hello,
I'm thinking about building a PC to essentially replace my PS5. I mainly play call of duty/warzone and then sometimes some RPGs like Diablo, etc. Using a 1080p monitor right now.

• How much would building a PC upgrade my gaming experience?
• How much money am I looking at spending? Is it a good time to be buying PC components? I do have an older gaming PC that I use daily for work and some games like starcraft/diablo 3. Some older components, not sure if salvageable... see below...
• I have a guy who can build it for me, i'd just prefer to get the parts myself, cut the middle man, and have him build it. Or should i watch a youtube video or something and try it myself?
• Would anyone be able to suggest the components or some options for me? I know i need the following
  • Power supply - In current PC?
  • GPU - currently have an old GTX 650..... i know ill need to replace
  • SSD hard drive about 160GB
  • RAM- Current PC has 8GB
  • Motherboard - Intel(R) Core (TM) i7-3770 @ 3.4GHz
  • Storage case - I'd like one of the cool one's with lights and such.... could use a suggestion.

I appreciate any help anyone could offer. Thank you!

What is your geographical location (country)?
What PSU do you currently have? (brand and model #)
Is your 1080p monitor just 60Hz?
