Hello guys,

My pc is now 2 years old.... I was wondering if it would be worth to upgrade some parts like gpu or if it would be better to maybe wait another year and then just get a new pc.
Keep in mind that my computer knowledge is very limited.... I can figure out how to change a gpu but I would assume that changing motherboard or cpu would be very hard/impossibile...
Anyway let me know what you think:

You could always upgrade your GPU now then carry that over to a new build later down the line.

What Boozad said.

But I'd suggest giving PCS a bell and seeing if you can actually add a high end GPU to your motherboard. But as for the CPU its fine, well, i hope it is cause I have one too!
