Current setup includes a strong configuration with high-end components. If you're aiming for higher FPS in titles like Valorant, MK1, and OW2, consider checking if your GPU can keep up. The i5-9400 GTX 1650 is capable but may struggle with newer games at higher settings. Upgrading the GPU to a more recent model or adding more VRAM could help. RAM and storage are solid, so they’re not likely limiting factors unless you’re pushing very demanding games. For SSDs, your current setup is decent for speed. Think about whether a faster drive or additional RAM would improve performance further. What part should you focus on improving?
Everything is fine. You're stuck on a platform with just two CPUs that can handle modern games without problems. But used prices are high, so switching to an AM4 setup might be just as good or even cheaper for better performance. Upgrading the GPU could boost FPS, but your CPU will likely limit you right away. A 500W PSU also restricts upgrades, probably an EVGA W1 500W model—consider replacing that.
A GPU upgrade should likely last you a year. The best choice depends on your gaming needs—sticking with the same model lets you play right away and enjoy smoother performance. The RX5700 currently offers a solid used price. You might also consider older Vega 56 or 64 cards.
