So I have a prebuilt that I've used for sometime. It is a gaming computer by CyberpowerPC. I know a lot of this community and the pc community tend to look down to prebuilts, but it makes sense. Anyways, I believe I was told my processor, gpu and maybe power should be upgraded. My price range is 400$-500$. Hopefully I get everything down of my specs for you all to help, and I also provide the link to where I bought the prebuilt+monitor.

Brand: CyberpowerPC

Model: GUA1200BST

Processor: AMD FX 4300 3.8 GHz processor | x64 bit Quad-Core

Memory: 8GB DDR3 SDRAM

Hard Drive: 1TB 7200 RPM SATA

Graphics: AMD Radeon RX 460 2GB GPU

Power Supply: 350w (Not sure, not specified in site but found a review with this #)

OS: Windows 10 Pro

My current 60hz Monitor

I would advise against it not for the fact that it's prebuilt but because the FX 4300 is on a dead platform. It has no upgrade path and still uses DDR3 ram. You'd be better off 1. Building your own system 2. Investing in Ryzen or a Pentium system.
