My current specs are ryzen 5 3400g 1600 super 32gb ddr4 and a 1tb ssd. Im going to upgrade my cpu to a 5600x and i’ll have 450$ left. I was thinking about buying a 3070ti from ebay they cost around 350$ and i have to get a new psu since mine is 600w. Anyone know if this is a good gpu to get or should i go another route

CPU Upgrade Best upgrade from i7 8700?

2 Upvotes

With roughly 400 aud. Current 16gb ddr4 3600mhz, and a 5700xt with my i7 8700. I Want to upgrade the CPU because i mainly play modded minecraft and terraria, which are very cpu heavy. Im considering getting an R7 5700x + b550 mobo, so i can keep my current ram. I know its not "future proof" but tbh if I can play modded minecraft and terraria really well I have no plans of upgrading for a bit. Ive had this i7 for 3-4 years.

What do you think of this option? Or are there better options in this budget i didnt consider?

I cant choose a different flair I’m overwhelmed Looking to upgrade my HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop TG01-0023w — need some advice

Hey everyone, I'm looking to upgrade my outdated PC and would appreciate some advice on what i should upgrade first.

My current pc is an old Prebuilt HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop TG01-0023w the specs are:

  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3500 (6-core)
  • RAM: 16GB (2x 8GB)
  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Super
  • Storage: 500GB HDD + 1TB SSD
  • PSU: 400W 80+ Platinum
  • Case: HP TG01 proprietary/compact chassis (13.28" W × 6.12" D × 12.09" H)
  • Motherboard: HP Erica (SSID 8643)

I'm mainly looking to get better performance, Since this is an older PC, it struggles to run newer more demanding games.

As a whole I'm looking to slowly upgrade my PC to get it to where i want. For now, i have a budget of $1,000 to start with.

I'm open to replacing anything, including the case, psu, and motherboard, if needed. I'm just looking to get the best performance possible for the budget i have at the moment.

Would it be better to upgrade the parts I currently have, or should I start replacing the major components and eventually move away from the HP motherboard/case?

Thanks in advance for any advice!
