You can upgrade your graphics card to a GTX 1650, but check compatibility with your ASUS M5A97 R2.0 board and AMD FX-6300. The motherboard should support the new GPU, but ensure the CPU and RAM match the requirements for the GTX 1650. If everything fits, you’ll likely see better performance without needing a full system overhaul.
the fx6300 works fine, i’d expect around 1660. once you’re ready, you can upgrade the board and install the necessary components. the ram can be repurposed similarly to the drives.
It varies based on whether it's am4 or a newer model; otherwise, you might need to upgrade RAM too. Am3 works with DDR3.
