PC Drivers & Software

Hi Everyone!

I had a question about maybe upgrading some parts as I feel maybe it's time. I'm looking at getting a few new components. Below are specs I'm rocking with now. I like playing the newest games like Black Myth Wukong, Delta Force, COD Warzone, Spider Man, and a few RTS games. I'm looking for components that can support the 5000 series GPUs, in particular the 5070 or 5080. Any suggestions?

Current PC Specs:

CPU: Ryzen 5 5600x

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-A320M-s2h AMD A320 AM4 Max-32gb Ddr4 Micro ATX Pcie16 GA-A320M-HD2

GPU: EVGA RTX 3080 FTW 10gb

Ram: 16gb 3200mhz

Power supply: NZXT c850 Gold (850w)

Monitor: Alienware OLED ultra wide (3440 x 1440)

At this time for what I can see from your PC, its best to just move on to AM5.

the A320 is a very low end board that doesn't go well with higher CPU's like the 5800X3D, even for a 5600X is kinda low'ish.

Avoid unbalanced systems, get a B650 top tier like RoG Strix B650E-E or a mid X670E. Then its a no brainer, 7800X3D or 9800X3D fits just as good for your games and next gen GPU.

32Gb should be enough but you can go 64Gb if you please, you won't see any fps increase in the vast majority of games but do get a 2x stick CL30 6000 at the very least, look it up if its in the Board QVL. EXPO is a nice to have. Avoid 4 sticks.

And that is it.

Good Luck

If it isn't in your budget to upgrade to a AM5 Motherboard which would include new CPU and RAM beside a new motherboard I would suggest upgrading your AM4 Motherboard to a x500 Series Motherboard that support your processor and RAM.

As noted by @johnnyenglish your A300 series Motherboard is a low budget motherboard for the type of hardware you have installed on it.
