I’m not great at understanding a lot of the technical aspects of the different pc parts, and especially figuring out where any potential bottle necks are. I’m thinking that the gpu is my biggest issue right now, but I’d hate to spend the money and not get a huge improvement in performance.

p.s. I’m leaning towards the RX 6600 for a budget friendly upgrade, but I’d be open to other similarly priced suggestions.

Update: thanks for all of the advice y’all. I ended up spending a bit more for a 6650xt.

    The RX 6600 is really nice for the price. Nvidia wise that would be a 3060 (which goes for a lot more and is actually slower at times, though also has DLSS).

    As you play at 1440p60hz it would be a really nice upgrade. Your CPU won’t hold you back at 60hz :)

    Depending on the type of games you play the 16 GB RAM might sooner or later become limiting (Absolutely zero issues with 32 GB), but it’s going to be fine for most games. Especially if you’re not a power user (like lots of browser tabs, Discord, several launchers, …).
