May i know which GPU you're currently using ?
Oh i forgot to mention my bad sorry. Its R9 280X GAMING 3GB DDR5
Your current GPU is far better and it can run all the games with good FPS what's the matter?. Its better to change your CPU to Ryzen 5 or i7 series
I know its good its run almost all games but with lowest FPS with lags, i still want to upgrate my GPU. About CPU i am not intrsted to upgrate it since its cost more expensive than the GPU cost especilly Ryzen CPU
