Hi guys,
I've been looking into having some fun with upgrading my old PC, I wonder how to approach this topic and what would be the best start, I'm thining about cheap second hand parts that I will be using to replace current ones over time.
I have:
I5-4670K 3,4GHz
GTX 970 4GB
16 GB RAM DDR3
Motherboard MSI Z87-G43 (MS-7816)
SSD 250 GB and HDD 500 GB
I was thinking about starting with GPU. My ideas were RX580, RX590 and GTX 1660 SUPER, I'm not sure how much my CPU could bottleneck them.
Other option I considered was changing a motherboard to AM4, one of the Ryzena 5 models and 16GB RAM DDR4 and then in the future looking or fitting GPU.
Any thoughts? How should I start? Which option will give me a better performance boost? How much my CPU will bottleneck newer GPU's? Maybe there are other options I never thought about?
Thanks in advance!
