Hello,

I have been upgrading this PC for years now, and the CPU is way behind. However I’m not sure what to put in. I planned on sticking with AMD, I’m running Linux Mint, and I want to spend $200-300. My monitor is capable of 165 FPS but nothing I play tends to reach that (Counter-Strike 2, Doom: The Dark Ages, Control, other big-budget games). So I’d like something that could help get this thing up to speed.

I’m also interested to hear what other components ought to be prioritized for upgrading in the future.

Thanks

    On a whim recently I upgraded the ram to this 32GB actually, from 16GB. Paid $115 and as of today it’s still climbing, at $300.

    Thanks for the advice, the CPU upgrade is more of a want than a need anyhow.
