Hello everyone, My PC is about 3 years old. My PC is as follows.
4.00 gigahertz AMD FX -8350 Eight-Core
M5A97 R2.0
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 Ti

Should i upgrade my CPU or GPU first.
For CPU i was thinking - Core™ i7-6800K Processor, 3.4 GHz w/ 15MB Cache
GPU I'm just looking at
GTX1060 GAMING X GeForce GTX 1060 6GB PCI-E w/ DVI, HDMI, Triple DP

honestly you will get more performance changing the CPU. at to what do you need you PC for.... if you are considering such a high end CPU and a middle range GPU tells me you are doing something more than just gaming.

the GTX780Ti still has pretty good performance and if you are able to OC it you can squeeze a little more out of it.

I would go for the CPU refresh every time.
