gollark: As I said, the RX 570 is a pretty good budget GPU as long as you have a spare PCIe power connector.
gollark: That doesn't matter for GPU upgrades though.
gollark: It's LGA1151 (v1), given the CPU.
gollark: The best CPU you could get on that board is probably then the i7-7700K, which is at least two generations outdated at this point so probably horribly expensive.
gollark: That CPU's still okay, I think, so you could just get a better GPU for now.
