Greetings, my name is Pieter, and my computer has been around for approximately five years. I was considering an upgrade but am unsure where to begin. My primary games are *The Division*, *Miscreated*, and *The Division 2*.

Here’s a breakdown of my system:

* Operating System: Windows 10
* Processor: Intel Core i5 4590 clocked at 3.30GHz (running at an increased speed)
* Memory: 4GB of DDR3 RAM operating at 799MHz, using a single channel configuration.
* Motherboard: MSI H81M-P33 (MS-7817) – Socket 0
* Graphics Card: Acer V193WL with a resolution of 1440x900 at 60Hz and 1GB of ATI AMD Radeon HD 7700 Series memory (MSI).
* Storage: 223GB KINGSTON SV300S37A240G (SATA-2 SSD)
* Optical Drive: TSSTcorp CDDVDW SH-224DB
* Power Supply: 300w (Xilence XP100R6)

I would greatly appreciate any helpful suggestions, as I’m not particularly knowledgeable about computer hardware.

Let’s begin by outlining a financial plan for this project and determining your desired specifications. Are you hoping to run games at 1080p resolution or would you prefer 1440p? What shortcomings are you currently experiencing with your existing setup? It's clear that a new power supply and graphics card will be essential components of this upgrade.

I don’t have a specific financial plan since I prefer to make progress gradually, which means I can avoid spending a large sum all at once. Currently, I play games with reduced graphics and occasionally experience delays, so my goal is to improve the visual quality—aiming for medium or high settings—while eliminating lag.
