What Should I Upgrade Next for My Gaming Rig?

-

Hey everyone! I’m looking to upgrade my gaming rig and would love to hear your thoughts on what I should focus on next. Here’s my current setup:

**PC Specs:**
– Nvidia RTX 3060 12G
– Ryzen 5 5600
– Corsair 32GB (4x8GB) DDR4 3200MHz
– Corsair RM1000X
– ASRock X870 Pro RS
– Corsair H100i Elite Capellix

**Peripherals:**
– 24″ Viotek 144Hz 1080P Monitor (Primary)
– 27″ Samsung 60Hz 1080P Monitor (Secondary)
– Logitech G502
– Corsair K65 Pro Mini
– Steelseries Arctis 7+

I do a lot of virtual photography and I love playing games with stunning graphics, usually at their highest settings. I’m mainly considering upgrading my GPU, CPU, and primary monitor since my secondary one is just for Discord and YouTube. I don’t have a strict budget, but I’d like to keep it around $800 if I can. Would appreciate any suggestions!

With a setup like yours, I’d suggest upgrading the monitor first. Your CPU and GPU are both solid enough for now. A better monitor will really enhance your gaming experience, especially for virtual photography! What kind of features are you looking for in a new monitor?

I’m considering a 1440p display to take advantage of the visuals. Any specific brands or models you think are good?
