My PC specifications are as follows: CPU Ryzen 5 3500, GPU RX 7600, RAM 16GB, PSU 650W, monitor LG MK600M at 75Hz.
I mainly use GTA V Online and FC 25.
- In GTA V Online, CPU usage frequently exceeds 90% (this game is demanding).
- In FC 25, GPU performance is strong but the lower refresh rate causes lack of smoothness and minor screen tearing.
Which improvement should I prioritize first: a CPU upgrade to Ryzen 7 5700X or a monitor upgrade to 144Hz/165Hz?

Welcome to the forums, newcomer! Here are your PC specifications formatted as requested: CPU: Ryzen 5 3500 CPU cooler: Motherboard: RAM: 16GB SSD/HDD: PSU: 650W Monitor: LG MK600M (75Hz) Please include the age of your PSU along with its make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this time. Users are encouraged to present their questions clearly; *How to Ask for New Build or Upgrade Advice* First, it's important to show respect for the rules here. This adaptation comes from the original *How To Ask For New Build Advice* post on Animal. I made it since many people are seeking upgrade advice both in this thread and on CPU forums, and I believe... forums. which adds context to your situation, helping the community offer useful suggestions. Moved the discussion from the Components section to the Systems section.
