Updating my pc

[tryf]

Hi all i am planning to upgrade my pc,my current setup is an amd fx 8300 8 gigs kingston hyperx 1866 mhz ram msi gtx 950.I use it mainly for gaming.So do i start with cpu mobo and ram or gpu first?For cpu i will go ryzen 2600 and for gpu a 1060.I cant buy them all at once. :/

Seeing as GPU prices are still decreasing, go for the CPU and motherboard first. RAM will probably remain expensive for a while, so you're kind of screwed there, but...

The FX will bottleneck some but it is still capable. It's not obsolete. I'd go GPU first.

Also i ll have to wait for a b450 mobo :/ i feel its a bad time to upgrade

Yeah it's tough to buy a GPU now with the crazy prices. You can get an XBONE for the cost of a 1060 or RX580. I bought an RX480 new for half the cost of what a 580 is now. Crypto is bad for the economy.
