You’re facing performance issues with your current setup, especially when playing newer games. You could upgrade only the CPU if it’s the bottleneck, but a faster GPU or a better motherboard might be needed for optimal results. Since you’re already at 99% GPU usage and achieving around 60fps, consider checking other components like RAM, storage speed, or even a more powerful motherboard if possible.
You might attempt to boost your CPU's speed. It should hit a minimum of 4GHz.
You’re clearly planning a graphics card improvement. Adding 16 GB of RAM would be a smart move too.
Uncertain about upgrading the GPU? I attempted overclocking but it just restarts everything. (Warning, I’m still learning)
The 4770K will only be matched by the 4790K, but you won’t notice major improvements. The main change is better overclocking on the 4790K. There are many upgrade guides on YouTube. Could you share your current PC specs and how much you’re willing to invest? Also, please confirm so we can review your answers.
The RX 560 offers limited power; for a cost-effective upgrade, consider the used RX 570.
