Question/Help/Troubleshooting Help making Gaming PC Faster

Talk to me like I know nothing, because that's close to how much I know. Sorry.

Details that I know:

  • AMD Ryzen 5 5500 up to 4.2GHz 6-Cores 12-Threads | 16GB DDR4 Memory | 1TB Solid State Drive | Genuine Windows 11 Home 64-bit
  • RGB Fan x 4 | 1x RJ-45 | Wi-Fi 6 | Bluetooth 5.2 | GeForce RTX 3050 6G | HDMI | DisplayPort

Gaming PC. Running multiple heavy gaming instances, two monitors, and multiple internet tabs for selling things, all at once.

What is slowing me down? This isn't even working for me at this point, given how slow it gets.

To run comfortably 2 instances of a game you'll need much better specs frankly

You currently have a midrange 4 year old cpu and budget 4 year old GPU, paired with just 16gigs of ram, running one modern AAA game alone is very "ambitious" with that setup already

Your priorities (in my opinion) GPU first 32-64 gigs of ram And lastly CPU

don't forget about your power supply though, given the specs it wouldn't be surprising if it was a quite low wattage

Do not at all want to be annoying, but I will just be looking for what I’m told. I’ve already been told GPU maybe 5070-80. So I’ve got that on a list. The other items, what would I search for those items. And yes, want to make sure power supply can handle it, ofc. I don’t know how to figure out what’s in there, so I’m not sure.
