I have an older PC setup and I'm trying to figure out which components to upgrade for improved performance and higher FPS. Here are my specs: Intel Core i5-10400 CPU, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 GPU, and 16 GB of RAM. Any advice on what should be my priority for upgrading?

It really depends on your budget and the types of games you're playing. If you're into competitive shooters at 1080p, upgrading your GPU could give you a significant boost in performance, especially for newer titles. Your CPU is decent, but if you find that it's holding you back in certain games, it might be something to look at later on.

Definitely consider upgrading your RAM first. Going for two 16GB sticks can give you that extra bandwidth you'll want, especially if you're multitasking. After that, keep an eye on your GPU too, since the RTX 3050 is a solid card, but depending on the games, it might be the limiting factor.
