Hi forum members
Been a while since i was into PC gaming but slowly getting back into it. I like games such as ETS2, Minecraft and the odd bit of Fortnite.
To start me off i bought a ready built PC to replace a ageing small form factor Acer PC which wouldn't have been able to cope with Win 10, which was another reason for a upgrade.
So my starting setup is as follows:
AMD Ryzen 5 3400G using inbuilt Vega 11 graphics
AMD Wrath Spire CPU Cooler
2x 8gb adata DDR4 SDRAM
Gigabyte A320M-S2H Motherboard
Seagate Barracuda 1tb HDD
Aero Bronze 80 Gold 500w PSU
Currently running mostly ETS2 at the minute on 1680x1050 medium to high settings at 30-50 fps
What im wondering is which would be best to start to upgrade, would it be getting a stand alone graphics card? Or perhaps the HDD to a M2 NVMe as my board supports it.
And another can of worms to open, which graphics card would be best suited below the £200 mark AMD or Nvidia?
This is how it Benchmarked:
UserBenchmarks: Game 26%, Desk 56%, Work 44%
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3400G - 73.2%
GPU: AMD Radeon RX Vega 11 Graphics - 19.2%
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 1TB (2016) - 102%
RAM: Adata 2x8GB - 78.3%
MBD: Gigabyte GA-A320M-S2H V2-CF
Thanks in advance
