This is mostly just for discussion, but this is my PC’s current state. I do want to do a full custom watercooled setup sometime but I’m wondering if anything is screaming out “upgrade me, I’m old”. I mostly game and do CAD design/3D printing. Some photoshop and After Effects work every now and then. What would you upgrade?
What games?
Honestly unless your seeing performance issues, I’d just keep the cash and buy more games.
But you ou could go to a 5800x3d on the same mb/ram. It’d be a drop in cores, but depending on the games it could be beneficial.
Or upgrade cpu/ram/mb to the newest gen
Yeah that’s the only thing on the list that I could see a possible improvement in performance in. I’m waiting on a good price for an x3d and I’m coming from an 5600x. Outside of that there won’t be much of an improvement anywhere.
Nah, no issues. This was mostly just for discussion really. I guess I could have worded it better. Like “This is my setup, if you had it and wanted to upgrade something, what would be first?”.
I mostly play single player story stuff. Right now playing Breath of the Wild on Cemu. But usually stuff like Fallout, Tomb Raider, Sony’s games, Resident Evil, and VR on a Valve Index.
I do feel like cpu/mb/ram would be the thing to upgrade next, but I’d probably do that later. I’m probably going to end up doing water cooling the more I think of it.
