Hello, your Dell G5 is a great choice for gaming, but you're right to question whether it's the best investment. With your current setup—8GB DDR4 RAM, an Intel i3 processor, and a GTX 1650 GPU—it’s likely time to consider upgrades. Spending $600 now could pay off later if you want better performance. Since you have a $300 budget for upgrades, prioritize the most impactful changes first. Upgrading your CPU or GPU would give you the biggest boost, as they directly affect frame rates and game performance. RAM is also important, but with 8GB you’re already in a solid range. Check reviews to see if adding 16GB of RAM is worth it for your budget and goals.
