Hi folks, my mates 12 year old son has inherited his cousins PC

i5 4670k
8gb 1866mhz RAM
Asus maximus vi hero c2

he has £250 to spend and was looking at another 8gb of RAM and needs a GPU, wasn’t sure if it should all go on gpu but then the older mobo won’t let newer gpus shine etc, so where should his money go?

he has bought himself an msi mag271c and was hoping to play fortnite at 144hz, but I told him not to worry about 144hz and just focus on a decent frame rate.

thanks!
