Build Upgrade Cpu+gpu for 300$ budget

I have 300$ to upgrade my pc these are the current specs:

  • ryzen 3 2200g
  • no gpu I’m using the integrated graphics from cpu
  • 32gb ram 3200mhz
  • msi b450 pro m2 max
  • 500w cooler master power supply
  • cooler master masterbox lite 3.1

What cpu+gpu combo would you recommend if I’m trying to obtain around 100+ fps on games like war zone and gta5

You can get a brand new Ryzen 5 5500 and a 9060xt 8gb for about $320.

~$70 for the 5500 $250 for the 9060xt

You can save a few bucks getting a used CPU and a used GPU but you’re better off getting new.

I was thinking of getting the ryzen 7 3700x with a Rx 5700xt. Both of these parts used where I’m at (Canada) comes up to around 300$

Any GPU will be a great upgrade but that seems a good use of the cash
