What are you using the system for? Is it not running as well as you would like in certain software or games? That hardware is still arguably mid-range.

Also, how much would you consider spending for upgrades?

it depends on what you are looking to do with the PC that it isn't.

a 6th gen intel build is still pretty good and any upgrade would not cost much as you can upgrade to a better 6th or 7th gen intel CPU

i play alot of rust and games like that, i just feel like the graphics card isnt that strong, and i was told that i would have to replace alot of other things to replace the graphics card.

i would consider spending probably no more than 300.

Hey man, if you have a 60hz 1080p monitor you really don't have to upgrade anything, especially for Rust. If you're getting between 60-80 fps in your games that's about all you need to pair nicely with that resolution/refresh rate.
