My current pc specs are:

  • Asus Prime H310M-K r2.0 (pcie 3.0 x16 max)
  • I5-9400f
  • Deep cool i35 cooler
  • AMD Radeon Rx 580
  • Kingston ddr4 1x16gb
  • Corsair TX650
  • Gigabyte G27Q monitor
  • And two ssd's and a HDD

I have two options I have a budget of about 400 euros and I am thinking of upgrading as the PC is getting a little unresponsive in general use and gaming. Leaning towards option 1 as the cpu is almost always above 50% usage at idle as I use my PC as a server for jellyfin and some other services ,but with them off in-game the cpu is almost at 100% in tf2 and pretty much any other game and the gpu is at 70% unless in cs2 ,then if the quality is set any higher than low it is a literal slideshow.

Option 1:

  • MSI Pro b650-s wifi
  • AMD Ryzen 7600
  • Crucial/Kingston ddr5 2x8gb

Option 2:

  • Nvidia rtx 3060/3070 with broken HDMI output (both used)

Requirements:

  • Motherboard Atx
  • Cpu am5
  • Must be available in Lithuania/EU for used parts only skelbiu.lt or eneba.lt

What framerate are you targeting?

I find it highly unusual that your CPU is reaching 100% in TF2 of all games.

Your system also shouldn’t be “unresponsive in general use” with these specifications.

Based on paper specifications alone, I’d be leaning towards the 3060/3070 as the most meaningful upgrade in gaming performance. However, I suspect there may be an issue with your software environment or an undiagnosed hardware issue.

I mean with a pcie 3.0 x16 motherboard a rtx 30 series gpu would be extremely bottlenecked .And that's because I have docker running

It’s not. I have a 4090 in my pcie 3.0 system and it’s like a 5% performance hit. On the 4080 or 30 series (especially a 3060) the hit is negligible.
