What should I upgrade first?

shadowman248 · Aug 29, 2017

I currently have a GTX 960 for my graphics card and an AMD 8120 for my processor.
What should I work towards upgrading first and what should I upgrade it to if I even need to upgrade at all

Depending on the motherboard, the CPU.

I'd upgrade the CPU, and RAM 1st if your going to upgrade, and hold off on upgrading your GPU until this crypto mining crazy ends and GPU prices return to normal.

Any recommendation for for a cpu to upgrade to for an msi 960 gaming motherboard and i already have 16 gb of ram

Did you mean MSI 970 Gaming motherboard? If so, grab a FX-8370. That's the best you can do.

I would get a new Ryzen setup instead of put more money on an old obsolete system.

If you just want faster framerates while gaming, upgrade the gfx card first. If you want everything else to be faster, get the CPU first. You really need both for gaming.
