GarTech · Aug 4, 2015

I plan on upgrading my computer, My current specs are

CPU: Amd a6 5400k 3.6ghz (overclocked to 4.2ghz) with Stock cooler
Ram: 1x4GB Corsair 1600mhz (CM3B4G1C1600L11) 1x4GB Patriot (PSD34G160081)
Gpu: 1gb shared HD7450D (IGPU) Core 760mhz Memory:800mhz
Hdd: Seagate ST500M002 Barracuda 500GB 7200rpm
Motherboard: Asus A55BM-USB3

Budget 200-250 Max

Im not sure it is worth upgrading my cpu,but I definitely want to upgrade my graphics card
My plan is to get a Gtx 750ti and mabey a athlon x4 860k or an ssd.Does anyone else have any ideas

If i bought a 60gb ssd and just had windows (no games) will i still improve gaming performance

Buying that processor will add very little performance.
If you have a 64 bit operating system I would get anouther stick of the same memory, and just add the video card
Just the video card would help your gaming performance big time compaired to what you have..

But the athlon is quad core and i currently have a dual core. So are you saying i should dual channel my memory and get a graphics card ? Do you know If i bought a 60gb ssd and just had windows (no games) will i still improve gaming performance

Thanks

My bad yes the 860K paired with the video card and another stick of memory.

I have a micro-atx motherboard so I only have two ram slots, when you say add a stick do you mean for me get more ram or have dual channel. Do you think i could get away with not upgrading cpu and still be able to play Gta v.

Thanks
