Hey folks, I'm looking to upgrade my current PC setup and could use some recommendations. Here's what I've got: a Xigmatek Phantom case, Itek 650W power supply, stock AMD CPU cooler, R5 5600G CPU, RTX 4060 graphics card, 2x8GB DDR4 RAM, and a B550M DS3H motherboard. I'm also using a Koorui 1080p 165Hz monitor but plan to upgrade to a 1440p OLED monitor for around €400. I have a budget of about €1300-€1400 for the rest of the upgrades. What would you suggest? Thanks in advance for your help!

Before you upgrade, think about why you want to make the changes. If it’s for better graphics and performance, then going for a more powerful GPU could be in your future. However, make sure your power supply can handle it!
If you're looking to make the most out of your budget, upgrading to a kit of 32GB (2x16GB) RAM could really help with performance, especially for gaming and multitasking. Alternatively, if you're after a boost in processing power, consider swapping your R5 5600G for a R5 5600X, which offers better performance. Overall, your build is already pretty solid, so these upgrades could make a noticeable difference!
That's a great point about the RAM! Definitely worth considering, plus it might help keep things running smoothly for future games.
I appreciate the thoughts! I want to maximize what I get for my budget, so it’s nice to know where to focus.
Good point! I have been wanting to play the latest games without hiccups, so I’ll definitely consider a more powerful GPU.
