Hello, welcome to the world of PC gaming! I see you're thinking about upgrading your system. Based on what you shared, your current setup includes a GTX 1650 and 8 GB of DDR4 RAM. If you're experiencing performance issues, it might be worth checking if your CPU is the bottleneck. Let me know if you need guidance on next steps!

It offers only a minor improvement for a significant investment. A Ryzen 5600X might be worth considering, but it won’t fit your motherboard. The optimal choice is upgrading the graphics card if possible.

You’d notice a clear improvement with the 3600, and it makes sense to aim for 16GB of 3200MHz RAM (or quicker). Using dual channels with 16GB plus higher clock speeds will make a big difference, possibly letting you skip the 3600 altogether.

What’s the problem? Which games are you using? Assuming 1080p, it seems your GPU might be the bottleneck—even with a stronger CPU it could still lag in certain titles due to its limitations.

I wouldn't waste time. Keep it simple and save for something more meaningful.

I enjoy CS:GO without problems, but I’m looking for Warzone upgrades. I need to understand which improvements would help.

Before upgrading your RAM, consider checking your current system compatibility and ensure you have the right type and amount for your device. Also, verify that your motherboard supports the new RAM speed and capacity.
