I built this computer with my son 6ish years ago for Christmas Now it’s lagging while playing battlefield 6 . Does it pay to swap parts or just start over?

You and me both. I built it at the end of 2017, it's showing its age sometimes. I got Ryzen 1600 on a decent MSI motherboard, but it's the very first gen so I doubt it can run 5600, at best it could be 3600 but it's old too by now. Still using good ole 1060 6gb, I could upgrade it but then CPU will be a massive bottleneck, plus nvidia jews are crazy with prices nowadays. I did get extra ram and storage at least while it was cheap. But then when I realize I don't play modern slop whatsoever, I put the idea of an upgrade on the shelf once again, lol.
