Hey, looking for affordable upgrades near you. You could consider budget-friendly options like a mid-range i5 or an older but reliable processor that fits your case. Check out refurbished deals or local used store options.

I'd go for the 11th i5, while you'd likely choose the AMD option with the 5600x.

If you want an upgrade from that you will need cpu motherboard and ram. A good upgrade would be ryzen 5600x if they are available in your country and a b550 motherboard. If you want to go intel, right now there's the i5 10600k that is interesting to pair with a z490 motherboard. Not as powerful as the ryzen 5600x but it might be at a more interesting price in the current situation. You can always wait for the next gen intel if you want too, supposed to be there first quarter of 2021. For a bid lower tier than those two in gaming you could get a ryzen 3600 and a x470 or b450 motherboard. As for the ram 3200 or 3600 is about the sweetspot for the price and you can always try to overclock it. It's about as general advice as it can be ... hope that helps a bit.
