Hi guys! just new here but ive been reading a couple of threads on this site to expand my knowledge on building a good gaming PC. Just want to ask suggestion what would be the best upgrade option for me to get better fps with dota 2. also planning to play other games in the future but i dont have any specific game on my head right now..

I currently have A58M-E(fm2+) for my motherboard and have A8 5500(fm2 socket) as my CPU. My GPU is an r7 250 1GB w/c is a PCIE 3.0 but only runs at PCIE 2.0 due to my CPU.

my options are upgrading my CPU to an A10-7850K w/c is the best CPU right now for Fm2+, since my MOBO is really an fm2+ in nature or

I upgrade my GPU to either GTX 750TI, GTX 950 or GTX 960..(upgrading to 950 and 960 i will be needing to upgrade my PSU as well since the one I have now is only generic, thinking of getting a seasonic s12ii if i decide to upgrade my GPU to 960 and 950)

what do u think? thank you!

I would get a gtx 950 if you were just looking to play Dota 2 but if you want to future proof your PC and be able to play other new titles i would recommend getting the gtx 960
