Hey everyone! I'm looking to enhance my current gaming PC setup, which includes an RTX 2060 12GB, a Ryzen 5 5600X, 16GB of 3200MHz RAM, 1TB HDD with no SSD, and an ASUS PRIME B450M-A II motherboard. I want to game at 240Hz on 1080p resolution for titles like Rainbow Six Siege and Subnautica 2. What components should I upgrade to achieve this without running into any bottleneck issues?

Your Ryzen 5 5600X is still a solid CPU. I recommend upgrading to something like a 9060XT 16GB GPU, which could boost your 1080p gaming performance by around 70%, and it's under $400. Also, consider adding 16GB more RAM for a total of 32GB, which is only about $30. Don't forget to get an M.2 SSD—these are now under $60 and can really enhance your overall experience. Stick with the HDD for less frequent files.
I've never used an AMD card before. Are they really as good as NVIDIA cards? I've always been a fan of NVIDIA. Thanks for the tips!
