Hello everyone, I hope you all are doing well.
I need some advice upgrading my build while I save money to make a complete new build with DDR5 and whatnot in the future, which I plan to do around 2023/2024. In this meantime I wanna enjoy as much as possible of the games that I already own with medium-high settings and the upcoming ones with low-medium settings without investing too much (if possible).
So here's a listing of my current build (made in 2017):
I've seen the benchmarks and the 3600 put up a good fight with the 3700x but should I expend more and I go with the 3700x for the long run?
What's really difficult for me to pick is the GPU, what option should be good?
Games I've been playing: CSGO, Hunt: Showdown, NieR: Automata, Sekiro, Code Vein, Nioh, DOOM.
Upcoming games I want to play: Cyberpunk 2077, The Medium, Hood: Outlaws & Legends, Outriders, Bloodlines 2, Elden Ring...
The prices where I live are outrageous right now (pandemic + devalued currency) a GTX 1660 Super is like $370 and the 3700x $450 :/
I really appreciate all your advices.
