    Hey all,

    I'm looking at upgrading my 2017 build. But I'm not sure what I'd change

    What would you suggest changing?
    • NZXT S340 Elite Gaming Case - White
    • Ryzen 5 1600X 6 Core AM4
    • Be Quiet! Pure Rock
    • GIGABYTE AB350 GAMING 3 - AMD Ryzen
    • Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2x8GB) 3200 MHz DDR4 Memory
    • 1TB Seagate Barracuda Hard Drive 3.5 SATA III
    • Samsung Evo 1TB
    • 250GB Samsung 850 EVO Series M.2 SATA 6Gbps
    • Geforce GTX 1070 8GB
    • 700W Aerocool Integrator 80+ Certified
    • TP-LINK 450Mbps Wireless Dual Band PCI

    Thanks in advance!

    What resolution and refresh rate is your monitor?

    Could go up to a Ryzen 3600 or 3700/3800 for the processor.

    The gpu upgrade will be the hard part. Join the queue of people who can't get 1.

    What's your budget for upgrades?

    Main is 144 and 75 for second, and yea GPU is a pain but willing to wait for that. When they do start to fall can look into it.

    A 3600 would let you max out your current setup. After that you can join the rest of us waiting for the graphics card market to settle down. Everything else is fine
