What to upgrade?

[KickAssKirk]

Hi guys!

I have a custom built PC. i use this to make and play games. I think soon i will need to upgrade it, probably the GPU first. I was wondering what you lot think needs to be upgraded at what to. I want to play modern games at full graphics with at least 40FPS. My PC is ok but what will be holding me back in the future? Here are my specs:

Windows 7 Pro
Intel Core i5-2400 CPU @ 3.10GHz
8 GB RAM
GeForce GTX 660 Ti

i know my power supply is 650W

these are all that specs i know, i would also appreciate it if you could tell me if any of the upgrades would require more power or more fans than i have that sort of thing.

thanks for your time and wisdom!

Really all you need is a GPU upgrade to max most modern games. Your CPU is fine.

What make/model PSU?

I would swap out the graphics card for a GTX 970 [ assuming you have a 1080p monitor ]

Yes I thought that would be the case. My PSU, its a Corsair CX 600.

Thanks, do you know if my current PC could support it or would i need to change some things?

Your computer can support it so don't worry about that... Your psu isn't the best quality so if you can get a gtx 970 and a seasonic/xfx psu at least 550-600w then you should be good
