What to upgrade first?

[stekkerbox]

I have an fx6100, gtx 750ti, 4gb ram, 600wpsu. What should I upgrade first?

[Hehe]

Ram

[Rumpelcrutchskin]

RAM to 8 GB, GTX 750 Ti to GTX 1050 Ti.
Other then that there is not much to do without replacing the CPU, motherboard and RAM.

No.. Gtx 750 ti is better then 1050 ti

GTX 750ti is on par with a regular 1050 at best.

The 1050ti is much better

I'd upgrade the CPU first. The FX-6300 is pitifully slow

What are you smoking?
The 1050Ti is a lot faster than the 750Ti, almost twice as fast.

Agreed, but requires a larger investment as it would require a new mainboard and new RAM as well.

new video card as mentioned 8gb ram and oc the cpu if you can

thats the best you can do and it should be decent on a tight budget the cpu can really only handle about 1050ti

GTX 1050 Ti is pretty much equal to GTX 770 and GTX 960.

750ti performs about the same as the gt1030, the 1050ti is far more powerful.
To the op, sadly, the best bet is to save up for new CPU, mobo and ddr4 ram, as buying more ddr3 won't really do you any good when you come to upgrade properly.

[Rumpelcrutchskin]

Well the upgrade to 8 GB is pretty much essential if you plan to keep this rig since 4 GB absolutely sucks for gaming currently with many games giving you out of memory errors or simply not working at all.

[Monk]

I agree, I just feel it's worth sticking it out and keeping the cash towards a full upgrade.

The problem is upgrading your ram will be a waste if you plan on upgrading your cpu shortly.

The thing is if you do upgrade your cpu you will need a new motherboard / ram / cpu heatsink / and possibly a new computer case depending on your current case.

You will also need to ad the cost of a new OS if you are using a oem version of windows as a new motherboard will do that.

If your current computer is that old it may be time for most new things like a power supply also as they are not that expensive and will help with a newer build especially if your power supply is getting old.

Tough call without knowing what games you play, or what games you want to play.

If you're struggling with games from the dragon age, just cause, or (insert any game with high IPC name here) series, a new cpu / ram / mobo may be a better first upgrade. Otherwise a GPU may be a more sensible / budget friendly upgrade.

GTX 750 ti is a lot slower than a GTX 1050, i'd recommend getting the 1050 ti

TBH, ^ the GTX1050ti is the new entry level card and the GTX750ti is about half that so if you're going to keep the GTX750ti there's not any point swapping out anything else.

I'd start with the GTX1050ti the FX6100 should manage it within reason then dig up some cheap used ram from recyclers or buy/sell forums.

An old GTX 750ti bench ^ and a GTX1050ti would be around or slightly below the HD7970 so the GTX 750ti is very weak.
