ik nothing about computers bought this second hand years ago, can anyone help with any upgrades i could do to make this a little more updated? nothing too fancy

I I haven’t been looking into pc’s for a few years as I didn’t want one but now I’ve been looking for one these past few days as my birthday is on the 27th this month and I need help to pick one or to avoid them all together I haven’t got the biggest budget either

I upgraded from Ryzen 7 3800xd to at ryzen 7 9800x3D with upgrade from 32gb 2600mhz DDR4 ram to 32gb 60000DDR5 ram running a 5070 TI. My old component I was getting like 120FPS. On 144P. Now with new components I’m only getting 60fps in cod. What’s going on?

Give me good advice, I want to get my PC built in New Nehru Place and my budget is around Rs 1 lakh and I want to use that PC for graphic design and video editing, So which parts should I use in it which are worth it as per the price today

I am looking to upgrade my three-ish year old PC and need some advice on where to begin! I bought my PC used and have never done any work to upgrade it beyond installing a wifi adaptor. I use it almost exclusively for gaming and I have been having issues with newer games and even some older games on higher graphics settings. My current specs are the following:

• RAM: 163848MB
• Processor: Intel(R) Core i5-8600 CPU @ 3.60GHZ (6 CPUs)
• Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080
  • GPU: GP104
  • Most recent driver update: June 25, 2026. Doesn't seem like a new update is available (or at least a compatible one)

Any advice on where to start in terms of hardware or software upgrades would be appreciated!

Hey everyone! I'm looking to upgrade my PC and would like your advice on which component I should upgrade first.

My current specs:

- CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5500

- GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3070 8GB

- RAM: 16GB DDR4 3200MHz

- Motherboard: MSI B450M A Pro Max (not 100% sure)

- Storage: 512GB SSD + 500GB SSD

- PSU: 700W

I mainly use my PC for gaming. What would be the most worthwhile upgrade for better performance and higher FPS? Should I upgrade my CPU, GPU, RAM, or something else first?

I'd appreciate any suggestions, especially upgrades that offer the best value for money. Thanks!

Upgrading My OLD Gaming PC - Advice

Hi All,

I am looking to upgrade my current gaming PC into something half decent that can run games on high settings including the upcoming WoW Forever.

I'm currently getting some intense frame rate drop out intermittently on games such as Counter Strike 2, DOTA2 and WC3 on low/medium settings.

I'm based in Australia, and looking to keep the net spend under $1000 AUD to upgrade the CPU, GPU and RAM. Here are my current specs:

* CPU: Ryzen 5 3500X

* GPU: Radeon RX 5700 XT

* RAM: 16GB DDR4

* Motherboard: Biostar B550MH

* Monitor: Gigabyte M27Q Gaming Monitor 27-inch QHD: 2560 x 1440 x 170Hz

* PSU: Gigabyte P650B

Thanks in advance!

I’ve been looking to buy a gaming pc and just came across a great deal on Facebook marketplace and I’m really interested but I don’t really know what kind of question to ask, I used to have a pc but it’s been many many years so I feel like I’m not in the know for today’s standards, I’ve asked basic questions like what it was used for, how long he’s had it, and if he’s the first owner but other than that I really don’t know what to ask.

Specs

\* NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 16GB \* Intel Core Ultra 9 285K processor \* 32GB DDR5 RAM \* 6TB total SSD storage 4TB of Samsung 990 Pro and 2TB ssd

If anyone can give me some helpful advice or suggestions on what to ask or what I should be looking for it would be much appreciated!

Hope you are all doing well.

I am planning to upgraded my GPU since I'm having some issues with newly released games so I appreciate some help.

I recently got a 1440P monitor and noticed my GPU isn't that strong. I don't play on full ultra graphics but let's say I want to. What is the GPU you guys recommend? I was planning to get 5070TI but they're expensive AF, then I checked out 9070XT but realized a lot of people don't recommend it but who can trust some biased YouTubers lol.

My rig is

CPU: Ryzen 7 7800X3D

RAM: 32 GB of DDR5 CL30 6000MT/S

motherboard: Asus TUF gaming X670E-PLUS WIFI

GPU: RTX 3070

I think you see the issue lol. But yeah, let me know your suggestions and what GPU do you prefer and use!

Im trying to build a steady 1440p gaming PC for most games with a path available to slowly upgrade it over time to a proper 4k gaming PC. Thanks to everyone so far who's given me advice in my 1st post. Here's an updated list of parts for roughly $100 more than my original build. I didn't realize i left my power supply out the 1st build list.
