Hi guys, need some advice. If I wanna upgrade my rig? Should I do a complete overhaul (new mobo, cpu, gfx card, ram, PSU, casing)?
Any specs suggestions for a $1.5-2k budget? (assembles at shop).
Mainly use for gaming (BF1, Titanfall2, Dishonored 2, etc) on high settings. Will be using back same samsung monitor.

Current setup
AMD Radeon R9 200 Series
8gb ram
Intel i-4570 CPU@3.2ghz
Windows 7 (64bit)

Thanks alot for help!

I think just upgrade GPU to GTX1060 3GB version, will be good for quite awhile.

Get a SSD. Get either a 1050Ti or a 1060 and you are set to go.

Save the rest of the money.
