This is my current PC, if i have around $1400 what would you advise i replace and upgrade?

 

[rgd1101]

brand and model of the psu?

what are you using it for? what issue are you having?

 

[JokerSharpe1987]

Psu is Corsair RM850, I use the pc for gaming and watching movies. I don’t have any problems just feel as tho it’s time to upgrade. Only have 1400 pound so just wanted advice on what to buy and what to keep

Hard to recommend an upgrade path with no guidance. Is there any game you are having issues with?

GPU is a little small and dated, but plenty good for most 1080p gaming.

Upgrading your monitor/GPU may be a good first step. CPU is pretty straightforward if you want to improve gaming performance. 5700X3D or 5800X3D will drop right in.

You could use some more memory and storage I suppose.

I’ve just upgraded my monitor to a M32UC wanted 4K gaming

 

[Eximo]

4070Ti Super or 7900XT then.

 

[JokerSharpe1987]

Motherboard is still ok.

 

[Eximo]

Yes, you just need to do a BIOS update to the latest before you swap in a new CPU.

If you really wanted to you could replace the CPU/Motherboard/RAM, but that means basically a whole new computer but PSU and chassis.

What CPU/Motherboard/RAM Would you recommend that’s doesn’t cost way to much over my budget
