What part to be upgraded? Please help.

[New In Malware]

OK, so a week ago, a bought my first desktop pc, before I had an laptop you know, so I obviously wanted to upgrade, so I can get into gaming.

Well, this pc I got was on a very good price, used before, so that's why.

It's an full tower pc, custom built first in 2011, and upgraded latest in 2014.

I can get pretty solid fps in most games, but when it comes to games such as Saints Row The Third, I get 30-50(+) fps, mostly around the 40 one. On medium graphics. I tought I was going to get better performance from a older games like that, but I overestimated my pc I guess. Also I have to play on 720p, which doesn't bother me alot, but you know, 1080p would of course be much more nicer.

It's still enjoyable, but I'd really want to get those graphics, and that performance.


Here's a detailed list of my stuff (also the guy seemed to like AMD i guess lol):

Processor AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 955 Processor
Manufacturer AMD
Speed 3.2 GHz
Number of Cores 4
Video Card AMD Radeon HD 6900 Series
Manufacturer ATI
Chipset AMD Radeon HD 6900 Series
Dedicated Memory 2.0 GB
Total Memory 4.0 GB
Memory 12 GB
Operating System Microsoft Windows 10 (build 10586), 64-bit
Service Pack 0
Size 64 Bit
Display Maximum Resolution 1920 x 1080
[I grabbed this of systemrequirementslab]


I even took the time to check the recommended hardware, and I had as good or better than everything.


WHAT would I need to upgrade?
Also, I am only able to upgrade 1 thing.




Thanks.

Not enough info really. Need to know exact motherboard, ram configuration, and what power supply you are using. Oh and of course a budget.

Hold on, getting it.

Also, I'm on a max 200 euro budget.

Motherboard
Manufacturer:
ASUSTeK Computer INC.

Product:
M4A87TD

Version:
Rev 1.xx

Ram should be 2x4 gb and 2x2 gb. All ram slots are used. At least the 4 gb ones are HyperX.

The PSU is a 600 watt Xilence XP600.

Hope this helps.

Also, for the "I can only buy 1 thing", it's pretty false, you know.
Well depends on what I'm getting, of course. If it's a video card (which I'm thinking of getting), it's probably just one.

But I could get a CPU and a PSU for probably 200 euros too.

I'm sure you understand.

Well, cpu wise you can't really do much better, without getting a new motherboard as well. PSU is questionable, and that GPU is not longer getting driver support, from AMD. A GTX 950 would be a pretty decent upgrade, and uses far less power, so that would put less stress on that power supply.
