Question Want to upgrade my PC.

[Gonzoyd]

Best regards everybody, I'm thinking in upgrading my PC. Right now I have a Thermaltake Overseer RX-I case, a 800w power supply and 1TB hard drive that I can use for the upgrade because the motherboard, graphic card and processor are old, also mY ram is DDR 3. So I need your support choosing the right RAM, processor, motherboard and graphic card for my PC (Gaming) and maybe where should I buy, B&H photo or other place. My budget is 1200 dollars at least. Thanks for the help

What 800W PSU? If it's older or a low end unit then I would avoid using it in the new build. Reused the Case & HDD in the price list as $0.

This would be a good 1080P/1440P gaming system. The budget would also allow for the Ryzen 2700 if desired. The store links via PCPer are reputable.

It looks like Wildcard has everything covered. It's a nice build for the price.
