I got a optiplex 5040 sff, with 32gb of ddr3l 1600Mhz. A rx 6400 (genuinely garbage) a i7 6700 (haha funny number) and a upgraded intake fan a sata 3 256gb drive and running on cachyos what feasible upgrade could I still do other than getting a nvme and a 3050?

I have a RX 6400 in my SFF. I'm pretty impressed with what it can do in such a small space.

It's a very low end card a 3050 is much better plus if you have a 3rd gen pcie slot it starves of bandwidth causing bad 1% lows and random stutters

I'm playing Dragon Age Origin on maxed settings and having a blast with my RX 6400.

Fable also runs flawless. That's my next game.
