What components should be upgraded? Monitor or CPU?
planning to modify my PC... not sure which upgrade would be more useful. I own a 60Hz IPS 1080p monitor, a Ryzen 2200G CPU, an RX 570 GPU with 4GB RAM, a 128GB SSD/HDD drive. I’m torn between upgrading the CPU to a Ryzen 5600, getting a 120Hz monitor, purchasing a Ryzen 3600 and a 512GB SSD for more game storage, or buying an SSD and a new monitor while leaving the CPU unchanged. I don’t have much money for a GPU upgrade right now and worry my current 2200G might struggle with a newer one... any advice?
Welcome to the forums, newcomer! The question is why you need an upgrade? What kind of tasks do you run through the system? Users are encouraged to format their threads with information relevant to this discussion; *How to Ask for New Build or Upgrade Advice*. Initially, it's important to acknowledge where proper respect should be shown—this adaptation comes from the Animal's *How To Ask For New Build Advice* Sticky. I developed it since many people are now seeking upgrade guidance here and on the CPU forums, and I believe... forums. the community will offer helpful suggestions.
