I'm new to building computers and I need some suggestions. I built a computer recently and I'm looking to upgrade it cuz I wanna be able to play muh games on max settings. I'm not sure what to do though, better graphics card? More ram? I'm a poorfag so nothing outrageous please. Any help would be very appreciated my dudes. My specs are as follows

I5 quad core processor @ 3.0 ghz

8 gb ram

Nvidia geforce 740 gt graphics card

1 tb hdd

new graphics card

Your GPU is dragging the whole system down.

A 1060 would be perfect for your system, but it is $250. You can get the 3GB version for $200, but it's probably worth spending the extra $50, especially if you're planning to keep the card for a long time.

You can't get a decent GPU for under $200. Below that price point it's all toy GPUs that give you 10% of the performance of a real one, and no real advantage over your onboard graphics.

Is this the card you're talking about?

also, if you can afford it, try to get a GTX 1070. It would be even better, you'd be able to play more games at max settings (I'm assuming 1080p because ur poor) at better FPS
