Hello, I am looking for help/opinions on my upgrade this summer. I am going to be putting together my first "proper" build and will be buying parts one at a time because I am 16 and just starting a job. My current rig has a gt 1030 paired with a phenom ii x4 945 overclocked at 3.6GHz. After buying a new PSU and case, I am either going save up some money to put towards a 1060 3gb, or swap out my mobo and ram and slap in a ryzen 5 1600. I will eventually be doing both but it might take awhile, and I'm wondering which upgrade would be better for gaming in the mean time.
Also, would a ryzen 3 1300x be worth getting instead of the 1600 to save 50-70 bucks? I will mostly be gaming but I also use Photoshop and Autodesk 360 frequently.
The games that I will be playing the most include:
Rainbow Six Siege
Dirt Rally
Dead by Daylight
GTA V
Thanks for any help I appreciate it!
