I have a
gpu: 1050ti
cpu: pentium g4560
ram: 8gb ram
I would want to upgrade both my cpu and gpu just wondering which one first, I'm eyeing on a 3300x and a 3600 however I could immediately buy the 3300x with a a320 mobo for 210 usd. Should I take or should I save some more?
I also would want to upgrade my gpu to a 1660S since I'm not really familiar to amd gpus

If this system is for gaming then I would hurry and grab the 3300X, almost same gaming performance as the 3600 at a lower price point. Used mobos are iffy I would stay away honestly but it's up to you, if you're getting it from a reliable source go for it.
1660 Super is good but you're sitting at a 1050ti so even a 1650S is a good upgrade. 1660S is great value for money...

i agree with Tioym.The cpu is the main flaw in your build and a upgrade from 1050Ti to 1660 super isnt really a "upgrade".Sure it would serve you better than 1050Ti,but its not worth the money.I would much rather stay with 3300x and 1050Ti and buy a SSD and 16gb of ram (i mean buy ram so it makes 16gb of total).8gb is really not that anymore since many modern games eat ram for lunch.Also a SSD bassically relives your system and its the most noticable "cheap" upgrade.

Yeah, I think I'm just gonna get 16 gb of ram first instead of the 1660

you can get ram later, you cant buy a good gpu everyday. It is what it is but it's up to you in the end. If I were you I'd happily get 8gb and spend more on a better card and then a month later upgrade to 16.
