Upgrading PC
Hi!
Currently looking to upgrade my desktop.
Heres my actual build:
GPU: 980TI
CPU: Ryzen 2600
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 2x8GB
PSU: Corsair 650w
Motherboard: MSI Motherboard B450 Gaming Plus Max
Looking for a upgrade without spending tons of money and still runing new games mid/high graphics.
Did a little bit of research:
Upgrading 980TI to 4060
Upgrading 2600 to 5600X
Upgrading from 16GB of RAM to 32GB (adding 2 more sticks of 8GB each).
Looking for recommendations.
Thanks
PSU: Corsair 650w Corsair is the manufacturer of this PSU, and the advertised wattage is 650W. Could you provide the model number and its age? I’m searching for an upgrade that lets me play new games smoothly even with high graphics settings without breaking the bank. Please include your budget, location, and preferred retailer.

It's not the worst PSU, but think about swapping it out in a couple of years.
the entry level 4060 offers limited benefits with RT. Consider trying 6650XT or the 7600 GPU. If possible, get the 5700X3D. This is the last upgrade before the platform change.
Consent was given, an RX 6650 XT is also a solid option, matching the RTX 4060 in terms of performance without ray tracing for roughly 30 euros less. The RX 7600 is only about 10 euros cheaper in Portugal compared to the RTX 4060, leaving the decision somewhat uncertain between the two.
