RAM - go for 8GB (around 3.5k ata ang 2x4GB)
then yung natira pwede higher video card (depends on what you do with the PC)

SSDs are good para mabilis ang boot but its not really that critical (and baka hassle pa since you have to migrate your files and OS to the SSD)

BUT if your OS is 32 bit, then there is no point in getting 8GB RAM, your system can only use 4GB. in that case, dedicate all that 10K into video card, maybe a GTX960 or R9 280 (brand new), or sell your GT740 and maybe have enough for maybe R9 280x, or even GTX970

dami kase sir issues sa r9 2xx series kaya namimili pa din ako kung nvdia or amd

balak ko kase ngaun ram,gpu upgrade as sir bodie said, next time na siguro si ssd total pure gaming at minor multitasking

eto pinagpipilian ko so far sa gpu kung mag bnew ako na palit gtx 960 for 9450php,kung mag amd ako ano pipiliin ko sir kenj?or counterpart ni 960 sa amd?
tsaka ano ba diff kung amd>nvidia gpu combo ako kesa sa amd>amd combo?pasensya na po newbie pa masyado.

yung potential kasi ng gpu di lumalabas pag di intel yung cpu

I dont know maybe i was too picky about my build...I notice that amd perform well kapag naka pure amd ka

although an amd card can performer well too kapag naka intel i5 or i7 ka na procie which is commonly use by builders who want good fps

r9 290x yun lang kasi kaya makipag compete with nvidia cards

i have an ssd too...actually i just learn that i cant keep a 128gb ssd anymore so its a learning experience for me so i have 512gb for my games so yeah save some money if you want to own an ssd but its getting cheaper now a days

definitely GPU upgrade, either gtx 960 or a r9 270/270x. plus an after market cooler for the CPU para ma overclock mo yung fx-6300 mo.
