Hey everyone! I bought my PC in 2022, and I'm feeling like it's time to make some upgrades. Here's what I have: an AMD Ryzen 5 5600X with 6 cores running at 3.7 GHz, a 1000GB SSD, 16GB of DDR4 3200 RAM, and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti with 8GB. My power supply can handle up to 650 watts. I'm considering starting with adding more RAM, but I'm open to other suggestions too. Any thoughts? Thanks!

You might also consider the type of monitor you're using. If you're on a VG259QM, that's a decent monitor, but if you're planning to upgrade it, getting something with a better refresh rate and resolution could really complement a new GPU upgrade. Let me know if you need suggestions for monitors!
If you're looking to upgrade, I suggest focusing on your graphics card and maybe your power supply if you decide to go with a more powerful GPU. Your CPU and RAM are solid for now, but an upgraded GPU can really enhance your gaming experience!
I recently upgraded my build with a 70 Ti and a 1000W PSU, plus I added 32GB of 3600 RAM. It runs games like Avatar at around 350fps at 1440p ultra settings, and the experience is just amazing!
Wait, are you talking about the upcoming 5070 Ti?
What resolution are you gaming at? That definitely factors into what upgrades are most beneficial. If you're at 1920x1080, your current setup should be handling it well, but there are some great GPUs out there that can take you to the next level!

Thanks for the advice!
