Hey bois, in the market to upgrade my gaming PC. I however am less than stellar when it comes to PC tech. Was wondering if anyone had any Ideas of what I could do to improve performance for modern gaming.
SPECS:
OS:Windows 8.1
Processor: AMD FX(tm)-4130 Quad-Core Processor (4 CPUs), ~3.8GHz
Memory: 8192MB RAM
Vid Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 3GB

definitely kys will improve your gaming experience
Since you already upgrade your GPU which is one of the major factors in games performance, you should generally next upgrade that CPU of your and a speedy SSD .

In luck that you got an AM3+ socket. Get any secondhand FX8XXX, Then save up for a ryzen build.
Also feel bad that you got a 3gb 1060. Even the 6gb is trash. But it'll hold you out till you get a big boy PC.
Could do with a lot more RAM I suppose.

The cheapest route would be what >>59507709
said, but you'll still have a meh CPU.
If you get a new modern CPU you'll have to upgrade your motherboard and ram.
That should total around $350 at least.

Not really. 12 would be the best for a gamer. Basically allows you to have breakthroughs up and other web tabs while you're playing. But what ya got id fine for now. Just throw a 8xxx chip in and save for your next PC. Then sell this one. It'll be worth more with the 8xxx chip, so it's a all around gain.
