Upgrading my PC

[vaioman]

I want to upgrade my PC and I need some help.I need someone to tell me what to keep and what should I replace first.I want to upgrade it so I can play most games at 60 fps.
My current build:
Motherboard: Gigabyte Technology Co. Ltd. 970A-DS3P (CPU 1)
Ram: 8.00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 803MHz
Cpu: AMD FX-8320
Graphic Card: Asus Radeon r9 200

Its a good move to buy AMD Ryzen 5 1600 Box?

You can barely use your old parts to get decent 60fps.may be just psu or case

You need at leasr gtx1060 or above . And at least i5 cpu or ryzen
Better build a whole new.rig instead of upgrade

Thanks for the answer!
I want to play games like (example) Dark souls 3 and PUBG at 60 fps.

 

[vaioman]

So should I get something like a Gigabyte GeForce GTX1060 6GB and AMD Ryzen 5 1600 Box?

Giga wf is nice with backplate r5 1600 or 2600 are also great .
You may also consider giga b350m gaming3 and any pair ddr4 ram 3200mhz

No worries.

I got above 60fps on PUBG on High with these specs. (It's an older PC that I don't use anymore). You could upgrade your system to something similar like mine:

CPU: Intel i7 4790S
GPU: MSI GTX 1060 6GB
MOBO: MSI Z97M Gaming
RAM: 16GB DDR3
PSU: SilverStone Strider Gold 850W (overkill, but you will be fine with 500W)

So is it necessary to change my motherboard?
and MSI GeForce GTX1050 Ti 4GB is a good choice?

4GB of VRAM in your graphics card should be ok, yes.

If you are upgrading to the 4th gen Intel CPU that I listed, then yes. You'll need to upgrade your motherboard that either has the Z97 or H97 chipset.

Last questions and thanks you in advance:
MSI GeForce GTX1050 Ti 4GB , AMD Ryzen 7 1700 Box (im still gonna get a HyperX Fury Blue 8GB DDR3) is going to be ok with my current MOBO?
and AMD Ryzen 7 1700 Box is a good cheaper choice or do you suggest something else?

 

[Ztdutxjgxgtu]

1700 is good , good oc, good cooler.
But you need a pair ddr4 ram, 3000+mhz

So you said I need a ddr4?
My motherboard supports only ddr3 , so can I get a ddr3 instead or not?

Ooo, this is interesting.

So Ryzen 1700 uses the AM3+ socket, which is available on your motherboard.

What's not available on your motherboard is the X370 chipset, which is what Ryzen needs to run on.
Unless there is some way you could use the Ryzen CPU on your current board with some BIOS updates and bottlenecks, I'm not really sure.

Ryzen CPUs also rely on high frequency DDR4 memory, but your motherboard only supports DDR3.

So my best bet is that you will need to upgrade your motherboard.

Can you suggest me another Processor around the same price as Ryzen 1700 to run with my current MOBO?
