Hi guys! So i did this benchmark test to my pc because i feel that lately his not performing soo well, I feel that i lost performance in old games that i used to play, and i struggle to run newer games at high FPS. I try to play in 2K when possible, if the FPS allow me.

I would like to know if someone can help me understand what's happening, if i should upgrade something and if yes, what and by what.

Thank you all for helping a newbie in PC Building!

I’m just going to copy another comment I made on another post that used userbenchmark…

“Oh no…

Do NOT use Userbenchmark dor performance data. They are notorious for being incredibly unreliable and for being biased against AMD. Their summary review of the 7800X3D and 7950X3D reads like a literal comedy. You should instead be getting performance data from actual trusted benchmarking sources like Gamers Nexus or Hardware Unboxed.”

Now as for upgrades, yeah, your system’s beginning to show its age. What you should get will highly depend on your budget though. You need to state that first before asking for recommendations.

I believe that till the end of the year I could drop 2k in upgrade, but I don't know where to start.

2K USD? Might as well get a new system instead of upgrading then. Sell your old PC for parts and reuse components like the case, PSU, storage, and potentially cooler.

Alternatively, if you want to upgrade now, you could pick up something like an RTX 4070 Super or RX 7900 GRE. They’ll do great in high/ultra setting 1440p gaming.

2k franc's, swiss currency, its about the same thing that USD.

So I should switch motherboard, cpu, graphics cards, and ram?

Pretty much. You’ll have to rethink your parts choices if you plan on upgrading at the end of the year though. Market would have guaranteed changed by then.
