Hey everyone! I'm stuck with a pretty outdated PC and I'm looking to upgrade it as much as I can without building a whole new one since that sounds overwhelming. I'm hoping to run Sekiro at least on medium settings. Here are my current specs (I might have missed something—I'm a total newbie):
* CPU: Intel Core i5-3470, 3.20GHz
* GPU: Intel HD Graphics 2500 (honestly, it's pretty bad)
* RAM: 12 GB
* PSU: 250W
What components should I consider upgrading to achieve better performance?

What’s your budget looking like? With the specs you've shared, I think you could potentially manage to play at 1080p. You might want to look for a low-profile GPU or an older but efficient one after checking your PSU. A 1050 or 1060 6GB could do the trick, and you can find a 1050 for around 40-60 GBP. However, this would be for lower settings. If you’re open to spending more, check out some budget build guides from TechTubers for inspiration and tips!
Honestly, if you're looking for a decent upgrade, you might just want to consider building a new PC if you can swing it. For $500-600, you could get a solid setup with something like a 3060 or 3070 which would run Sekiro smoothly.
Do you need more info about my PSU, or is what I have enough?
