[SOLVED] Upgrade option

[Chalken]

I'll be upgrading my old pc soon (i3 3240, gtx 660, 8gb DDR3 ram) I've got a limited budget to upgrade with used parts and currently I have 2 options:

1. i7 3770 + rx 570/480 4gb
2. i5 3570 + rx 580 8gb

I'll be using the PC to play games at 1080p. Looking to play the latest AAA games. Which option would give me better performance?

2nd one. you can easily >100 fps on most games with a RX 580. I have the 480, and there is little to no bottleneck on older CPU's.

What games have you tested?

What games have you tested?

PUBG, Warframe, Fortnite, Just Cause 3 (got abt 90 fps on high), Little bit of GTA V on 2nd highest - got about 70 fps.

The RX 580 is a little better, so you should be able to get a little more fps.
On fortnite i managed to get max 240 fps, average around 180
