I want to upgrade my current PC because during a game, I start off with 90-100 fps on fastest settings but mid game to late, I’m down to 40-80 FPS. I’m currently using a Ryzen 3 2200g with no GPU and 16GB of RAM. I thought of buying a RX 570 / RX 580 but watching benchmark videos on youtube, I don’t really see any difference in FPS. Should I just buy a newer processor or should I go through with buying a GPU?

Note: I cannot afford to buy a whole different PC. I could only afford to replace parts one by one. Thank you for reading and thank you in advance for answering.

    You need a GPU. Not a high-end but somewhat decent one–I’m thinking 3060. Then rest should all go to CPU upgrade

    Buy a cheaper GPU from the 2000 series on sale and rest buy at least ryzen 5 5600x (cheapest for the buck processor as dota is very heavy CPU game and not GPU). anyways gl hf

    No GPU is the biggest issue. If you replace that CPU, you will have to replace MB and RAM too. GPU you can consider something like 6650XT or around that.
