Hey everyone, I hope you're all doing well! I'm trying to figure out some cost-effective options to improve my PC's performance without breaking the bank. I'm hoping to grab a good deal during Black Friday.
Here's what I'm currently working with: Intel i5-10400f, RTX 3060 12GB, 16GB RAM DDR4 at 2300 MHz, and a 1TB NVME drive.
I'm wondering if upgrading my CPU might be worth it, but I'm still uncertain.

Honestly, most of your parts are a bit outdated, except the 3060. It might be better to save up and do a full build down the line rather than piecemeal upgrades. But if you're set on something now, I’d think bigger rather than smaller.

I totally get that, but I just bought my first car, so I’m tight on cash at the moment. I was hoping for a small upgrade that might boost performance a bit until I can afford a whole new setup. Thanks for the input!
