Which parts should i upgrade?

[Ratbag2]

I want better fps in games but I don't know which parts to upgrade. My pc struggles to get stable 60 fps on low settings with newer and more demanding games so i want an upgrade but I don't know what's the better option here. Any advice? I currently aim to play @ 1080p 60hz.
intel pentium g4560

This is my current pc build:
Msi H110M PRO-D
GTX 1050Ti 4gb
Crucial DDR4 8GB CT8G4DFD8213.C16FBD2 ram
1tb hdd western digital
120 gb ssd
500 W psu FSP500-60APN

What games do you play, specifically? My gut feel would be the dual-core nature of the Pentium, if you're aiming to play newer/more demanding titles - although a G4560 is still fairly respectable as a budget CPU.

A 1050TI is plenty capable for low-medium 1080p/60Hz most of the time.

Are you monitoring CPU/GPU/Memory utilization in game? Is anything hitting 100% usage?

That PSU is pretty dated at this point, and nothing specific. Regardless of upgrades, you might want to look into replacing that sooner rather than later anyway.

What kind of budget are you working with?

Well....you might be able to go to a 1060 and not bottleneck....but that doesn't get you much more than the 1050 Ti.

If you go higher than a 1060 you definitely will bottleneck and you will have PSU issues as well.

You can go to a 7700k with that MB and get TONS of CPU speed. Then maybe up the PSU and get a 1070 or 1080.

My pc struggles to get stable 60 fps on low settings with newer games so i want an upgrade but I don't know what's the better option here. I can go for a new cpu like the i5 7400 or a gtx 1060 or a 1070. Any advice? I currently aim to play @ 1080p 60hz.

What’s the budget? An i5 or even i7 if you want it to last a few years would help minimum FPS in cpu heavy games.

Around 220 euros. I want to run games like Hunt:showdown or Monster Hunter World with med graphics. Pubg runs at low/ very low at like 50 fps right now. Newer games with poor optimization mostly is the problem.

200 euros. I saw a i5 7400 for 160 euros. Would that be a good option?

While testing with dark souls 3 my cpu was at around 70% usage and my gpu was 90% so i guess going for a rx 580 8gb or a gtx 1060 6gb would be a good idea for now. Could upgrade mobo+psu and cpu later when i have a bigger budget.

Honestly, your GPU is fine, maybe OC it if you can. Maybe go for an i5 8400 with the corresponding mobo. It might seem like a big investment but it will serve you for a great many years, trust me you won’t regret it.

Monster Hunter World and PUBG will definitely benefit from a stronger CPU. The 1050 Ti should handle a mixture of around Medium settings in most the games you mentioned fine, but MH:W & PUBG are notoriously CPU hungry, even your average i5 gets pushed pretty hard. Try looking around for i5 8xxx / Ryzen 5 2xxx they'll do great. Although, if you can find a cheap i5/i7 6xxx/7xxx i wouldn't entirely overlook that considering you could re-use your current Motherboard. And i'd personally take an i7 6xxx/7xxx over an i5 8400 if you can find one, maybe locally second hand. Otherwise you'll need a new Motherboard for Ryzen/Intel 8th gen and as mentioned, Power Supply might be worth upgrading for reliability sake. Hope this helps!
