This is my current hardware configuration.
I’m a novice in this area, and I want to know if my motherboard is suitable for future upgrades? Or should I consider purchasing a completely new PC and selling this one?
I'm considering upgrading to a Ryzen 3700X processor and an AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT graphics card with 16GB of memory, and I’m also looking at 3200MHz RAM.
Could you please advise? <3 <3 <3
Considering your location in Eastern Europe, I've explored German offerings within your budget. Here’s a potential build:
You might consider selling your processor, memory, motherboard, and graphics card, then upgrading them. Additionally, what is your location and what is the amount you plan to spend?
A storage capacity of 16 gigabytes should suffice at this time. The 3700X processor is exceptionally impressive, and your motherboard currently supports it; you can upgrade its BIOS to version 4801, which will then enable compatibility, and subsequently replace the CPU.

The 5600 XT performs quite similarly to the 5700 XT. I recommend considering either a 5700 XT or an RTX 2060 – with NVIDIA being the preferred choice. You could also explore a 2070, which is an outstanding graphics card.
It would be challenging to market items like these. I'd prefer to focus on supplying a full team, which would simplify the process.
Due to my location in Eastern Europe, costs could potentially be somewhat elevated compared to areas further west.
To illustrate: a GeForce RTX 2070 Windforce 2x 8G currently costs approximately $440, while a Ryzen 3700X is around $250. I’m unsure if Western markets offer significantly lower prices than these figures.
My available funds are roughly $1300.
While it could suffice, I frequently hear that 2400 is considered inadequate...
Yeah i guess but for now he can focus on the CPU and GPU first.
Since you live on middle eastern europe, i tried German region. here what could i pick with the budget you got.
