Which build is better and has more worth for gaming?

[highttyler]

Trying to decide between these two builds for an upgrade on my gaming computer:


Upgrade 1:
i5 4690k + GTX 1060 6 GB

about $500


Upgrade 2:
CPU: AMD - Ryzen 3 1200 3.1GHz

Motherboard: ASRock - AB350M Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard

Memory: Patriot - Viper Elite 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR4-2666

Video Card: MSI - GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB

about $400


Current build:

Motherboard: H81M-A

RAM: RipjawsX 2x4 GB

CPU: G3258

GPU: 750 Ti

Definitely 1. Don't forget to update BIOS before swapping CPU.

Ryzen 1200 isn’t going to do much for you. The first upgrade is better for gaming no doubt. A 1060 6gb is faster than a 1050 Ti by a decent amount. And the i5 4690k is going to beat the ryzen 1200 in gaming performance. Upgrade 1 is a better value because upgrade 2 doesn’t make much sense.

Yes go with i5 4690k + GTX 1060 6 GB. Good luck.
