Upgrade cpu or ram

[Raptorill]

So I'm running a decent build and I play pretty easy games to run but I'm looking to play tom Clancy a six siege and playerunknowns battlegrounds now, I run both around 40 for casually and 25 while in a gunfight (it's solid 60 for six siege)
But I don't know what to upgrade to get an immediate boost, I know I need to upgrade both but I'm wondering which one i should upgrade first.

Ram:8 gb

Cpu:i5-2320 3.0ghz overclocked to 3.2ghz

Gpu:gtx 1050ti 4gb

Thanks for the feedback in advance.

If your RAM usage is more than 7 GB when playing, you should upgrade RAM first. If your CPU usage is at 100% when playing games, and RAM usage isn't so high, you should upgrade processor first.

Both, like you said. However, if I had to choose I would do the CPU first. 8gb is not going to give you as many performance challenges on average as your CPU will.

What motherboard are you using? If it has an updated bios you could possibly run an i7-3770. That would be a nice upgrade. I got one off of craigslist about two years ago for about $100 usd.

Upgrade the memory to 16 Gb, you'll notice the difference...CPU is fine , GPU is low end but if you dont try to push the resolution too high you'll probably be able to play it without issue...You can check the game's Minimum specs to get a better idea...

OP said he was gaming, if you have proof that 16gb will actually make a difference, please provide it.

If you cant see any difference you have a serious eyesight problem...And i see many bad implementations too
Your links and these...
