I've been using a Dell Optiplex 9020 Tower for about a year or two, and I upgraded it with an EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB graphics card and a Thermaltake Smart Series 500W PSU. Right now, I'm able to play games on low to medium settings at around 30-60 FPS, which is fine, but I'd like to bump that up to around 50-80 FPS. Should I invest in a whole new PC or just enhance my existing setup?

Can you share the rest of your specs? That way, we can help you figure out if an upgrade is feasible or if it's time to start from scratch. If it's running a 4th gen Intel CPU, you might need a whole new setup.
Honestly, a new build might be the way to go if you want a significant boost in frame rates. The Optiplex is pretty limited in what you can upgrade effectively. Starting fresh could save you future headaches and give you plenty of room for better parts.
Sure! Here's the link to the specs on Newegg: [Dell Optiplex Specs](https://www.newegg.com/dell-optiplex-790/p/1VK-0001-53XW1?Item=9SIADFMJK47872). Let me know what you think!
