I'm looking to improve my computer setup and could use some guidance on upgrades. Here's what I currently have: 932 GB of storage, an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 graphics card with 8GB, 16GB of RAM running at 2666MT/s, and a 12th Gen Intel Core i5-12400F processor at 2.5 GHz. My operating system is 64-bit on an x64-based processor. I'm pretty sure I need to upgrade my RAM and possibly the processor, but I'm not sure which specific parts are good and reasonably priced. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Your setup actually looks pretty decent overall! I'd recommend boosting your RAM to at least 32GB if you can. It helps a lot, especially for gaming or multitasking. After that, consider upgrading your GPU since your current one is good but not top of the line. By the way, what type of storage do you have—HDD or SSD?
What's your budget and what resolution are you aiming to play at? Knowing that can really help narrow down your options for upgrades!
Ideally under $600 for everything.
