Here's my current gaming rig; I built this about three years ago, and I'm looking to make some upgrades:


  • ■ CPU: FX-8350 4.0GHz 8-Core
    ■ Cooler: Hyper 212 EVO
    ■ RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws X 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600
    ■ GPU: Asus GeForce GTX 770 2GB
    ■ Storage: WD 1TB HDD
    ■ Power: XFX 550W 80+ Bronze

If you had about $250 what would you suggest I get or change to make this rig perform better? Trying to get optimal results for 1080p gaming.

Thanks!

I'd overclock that 8350 as far as it will safely go and then upgrade the GPU to the GTX 1060 6gb. Then the next upgrade I would suggest is the CPU/MB/RAM.
