GPU would be my first upgrade, but obviously can't recommend anything without knowing your budget and currency.

IM Uk based and max budget is £100. I have been asvised that conan reuires 16gm memory to run properly. Also im hearing and intermittent buzzing from the case, im thinking this is the processor fan are these easy to change?

Advent - so we're working with an office machine.

With that, I'd recommend a new power supply if you're planning on going for a more powerful graphics card. Potentially a new case too to circulate some air. You'd need a good £250 for these upgrades.

You can see if you need more ram by opening task manager whilst you have Conan open. When you are lagging, tab out and see if you are hitting your max memory usage. I suspect you'll be maxing your graphics card out first before this.

I recommend turning down the settings in your game and saving some more money before upgrading.
