Hey everyone! A while back, I built a decent budget PC for gaming at 1080p, and it's still performing quite well with recent titles like Avowed and KCD 2. However, I'm looking to level up my gaming experience to 2K at 60 FPS, and possibly start streaming or recording my gameplay. I'm a bit lost on where to begin with upgrades. For instance, I'm not sure if I can upgrade my GPU without also upgrading my power supply. Here are my current specs:
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600G
- Graphics: AMD Radeon RX 6600
- Mainboard: A520M S2H
- Memory: 2 x 8 GB RAM DDR4
- Power Supply: 500 W
Any advice on the order of upgrades would really help!

I’d suggest upgrading from your RX 6600 to something like a used RTX 4070 or even a 9060XT for better performance.
Do you think my 500W power supply could handle either of those GPUs?
