I've been using a Ryzen 5 3600 and a GeForce RTX 2060 6GB for the past four years, and I'm starting to struggle with newer games. I'm experiencing longer load times and frame drops, which is pretty frustrating. I'm interested in upgrading my setup without spending a fortune. Ideally, I want something that will keep me going for the next couple of years. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

If you're looking for the cheapest upgrade, consider going for a Ryzen 5000 CPU in the $100-$140 range, and maybe look at an RX 6800XT if you can stretch your budget towards $500. If you're sticking with 1080p gaming, a Ryzen 5600, 5600X, or 5800X could work great. Also, remember to update your BIOS before you swap out any hardware!
Thanks for the tips! I can manage around $500 and I definitely play at 1080p.
