(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I have been told many times by a few people that my Pc is not very good (It is 3 years old). So i am wondering if I should at any point upgrade
or rebuild a new one? and should I go for AMD or INTEL for both gaming and rendering?

My Pc Specs:
CPU: AMD A8550 APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics 3.20 GHz
Ram: 8GB
GPU: GeForce GTX 750 Ti
Power Supply: 450Watt Corsair

The two things that have been upgraded are the power supply and the GPU.

Are you satisfied with your current PC? If yes, ignore those people and keep on doing what you do.

Your PC is good for low-end games like CS:GO and League of Legends. If you want to play demanding games like Battlefield 4, GTA V, The Witcher 3, etc. and/or be able to stream, then I would recommend building a new PC from scratch. I wouldn't recommend putting any more money into your current PC because your motherboard uses the FM2 socket which is dead now; there are no more upgrades on that motherboard that would be worth your money.

Ok thanks for that, I can run games like GTA V but not at the highest specs. But thanks for the help.
