Price is not so important but I can only upgrade one thing before Legion. GPU or a new i5 (+ motherboard if there's a socket change). I have a 21:9 main monitor with AMD FreeSync, so I'm mainly looking for an AMD GPU.
- What is the bigger bottleneck here? The i5 is overclocked to 4.5 GHz, GPU lost the silicon lottery and doesn't OC.
- What will get me 100 FPS or more at the new Legion ultra open world?
