Hi! Thank you very much for taking the time to read (and hopefully respond) to my thread. I am looking for opinions on my next upgrade.
This is my current system:
AMD Fx 8320 (the 125w version) @ 3.8Ghz
Gigabyte GA - 970A - UD3P Rev 2
G.Skill Sniper 2x8Gb 1866Mhz
Sapphire Ati Radeon 280x Vapor-X.
DeepCool GamerStorm Maelstrom 120k Closed Loop watercooling (Keeps the Fx @ 47 C on 100% load)
Sentey ERP 650w Power Supply
So, I want an upgrade but I'm limited to a USD 500 equivalent plus what I could get selling my old parts and currently living in Argentina. I asume I can get about USD 400 by selling my old CPU/Mother/Ram and about USD 120 by selling my old VGA card. The parts that I don't replace now, I'll change probably around June/July.
Without further ado, this are the options from which I cannot decide:
Replacing only my VGA
Rx 480 8g Asus Strix USD 465
Rx 480 8g Sapphire Nitro USD 382
Gtx 1060 6Gb Asus Strix USD 497
Gtx 1060 6Gb Gigabyte USD 446
Gtx 1060 6Gb Zotac AMP! USD415
Replacing Mother/CPU/Ram
Intel i5 7600k 5300 USD 338
Asus Strix z270e USD299
G.Skill TridentZ RGB 3200 USD 318
What do you think? Should I go for the VGA now and hold on the CPU/MoBo/RAM for now, or the other way around?
Again, thank you very much for your time and forgive any idea that might be lost in translation!
