I'm trying to figure out the next upgrade for my PC to enhance my gaming experience. Here are my current specs:
- Power Supply: 850W
- CPU: Ryzen 7 2700X
- GPU: RTX 3060 12GB
- Storage: 1.5GB SSD
- RAM: 16GB
- Motherboard: MSI B450 Gaming Pro Carbon Max WiFi ATX AM4
I initially thought I needed to upgrade my CPU, but according to UserBenchmark, my GPU is lacking. I'd appreciate any advice or insights!

Honestly, don’t put much stock in what UserBenchmark says; it’s generally considered unreliable. Your CPU is likely the weakest part of your setup. A BIOS update and swapping to something like a Ryzen 5700X would significantly boost your performance.
Skip UserBenchmark for real insights. I’d recommend targeting the CPU first. Upgrading to a Ryzen 5600X could give you a huge jump in many games. Your RTX 3060 should still handle things pretty well at 1080p—just make sure your CPU is up to speed!
UserBenchmark's credibility is often questioned. It's wise to always cross-check with more reputable data sources to make informed decisions about upgrades.
