    Would like some advice on upgrade options on my PC to help it play newer titles at decent frame rates.

    Current Spec:

    CPU: AMD FX 6300
    Motherboard: Gigabyte 970A-UD3P
    GPU: Radeon HD 7770 1GB
    Ram: 8Gb Corsair Vengence DDR3
    Power Supply: Corsair CXM 600W

    Looking at CPU/ Motherboard/ GPU upgrades

    Budget would be €500 --> €700

    If you're looking to spend the budget, a B350M motherboard, Ryzen 5 1600, 8GB DDR4 3000mhz and a GTX1060 6GB/RX580 8GB would be good.

    But while the FX-6300 isn't a brilliant CPU, it should get you by for now with just a card upgrade as the HD7770 is very obsolete.

    Have you thought about just selling that PC for €250-300 or whatever and just building a new one from scratch all together?
