So I THINK I fell into a trap. In a pc magazine, i think it was maximum pc oct. 2018 issue, they had a $500 budget pc building guide and I followed it to a tee and bought all the parts knowing all I wanted to do was mainly play RTS's and MMO's. But within that pc build was a non-overclockable compatible motherboard(B360M D3H). It supports coffee lake cpu's as far as I know.
The thing is, i'm now thinking about upgrading a part in the rig and I don't know which one would benefit me more. Here are my current specs:
intel pentium gold G5600 3.9GHz 2 cores(4 threads)
Nvidia GTX1050(non-ti version)
8GB DDR4 ram
Windows 10 64-bit
B360M D3H motherboard
Any help with deciding what to do would help alot. Also, if upgrading my cpu is the best option, do I upgrade it to a non-k intel cpu that goes with the current mobo or do I buy a K series cpu for the sake of higher base clock frequencies and futureproofing for possible future overclocking?
