Does it have a good upgrade path for gpus null

This a starter to mid cpu . If you’re looking to upgrade your gpu , then I would recommend you update your cpu and motherboard too. Just remember that everything you update a component on your rig, you also have to upgrade a few other things so that your gpu is not being held back from performance and also vise versa for your cpu

Wouldnt reccomend upgrading this since its an am4 board and not much upgrade path if your budget is more that 750 i wouldnt reccomend going with an am5 board and cpu

For mid-low range gpus absolutely and maybe even a slightly high end gpus with a slight bottle neck. However don’t let that discourage you from getting a better gpu, you’ll lose out on those extra frames in some cases it can be 2-5 fps or even 10 fps either way depending on the games but if you just don’t have the money then this is a overall great cpu for those on a budget gpu or don’t mind those small amount of frame losses.

This CPU only supports PCIE 3.0, and not 4.0. So newer GPUs will have reduced performance. So overall, no, not really.
