Hey everyone,
I’m looking for the best upgrade path for my PC with a budget of around $300.
Current specs:
● GPU: GTX 1060 3GB
● CPU: Intel Core i7-4790
● RAM: 16GB DDR3
● Storage: SSD
● Case: Large case with plenty of room for upgrades
● PSU: Not sure of the wattage yet (can check if needed)
I mainly play at 1080p and want the biggest FPS increase for the money. I’m open to buying used parts.
What would you do with a $300 budget:
● Upgrade the GPU only?
● Upgrade the CPU, motherboard, and RAM first?
● Sell some of my current parts and save for a larger platform upgrade?
I’m looking for the best value and longest-lasting path forward. If you have specific part recommendations (used or new), please let me know.
Thanks!

60k miles on a Kia Elan, that's actually kind of incredible. Most of those things got scrapped ages ago so you got a unicorn whether you realize it or not

if it were me I'd keep it. Parts are gonna be a nightmare for anything you swap it with but the Elan is basically a rebadged Lotus so the suspension and handling are already solid. A Challenger in Lebanon sounds like a headache with parts and fuel costs and I doubt many mechanics there are familiar with them

you could probably get decent money for the Elan from a collector overseas but building it into something weird and fast would be way more interesting than just buying another car

I’m 17 and live in Lebanon. I currently own a 1996 Kia Elan with only around 60,000 miles on it.
I’m trying to decide whether I should keep it and modify it or sell it and buy something else. I like the idea of doing an engine swap or building it into something fun, but I’m wondering if it’s worth the money or if I’d be better off starting with a different platform.
If I sell it:
How much do you think a 1996 Kia Elan with 60k miles is worth? (Keep in mind I’m in Lebanon, so prices are different from the US.)
What cars would you recommend buying instead if I want something fun, reliable, and easy to modify?
One of my dream cars is a Dodge Challenger, but I’m worried about maintenance and finding parts since I live in Lebanon. Is owning one there a bad idea, or is it manageable?
My budget would depend on how much I could sell the Kia for plus whatever extra money I save.
What would you do if you were in my situation?
