      I have a old pc. Built atleast 6 years ago maybe more. It has a 1080 FTW2 GPU in it and that still plays everything at 1080p and 120-144fps no problems at all. I only have a 1tb HDD and a 240gb sdd. The sdd has windows and then one or MAYBE two games im playing a lot on steam. Everything else is on a HDD. It’s kinda just getting to the point where it’s annoying and I want more sdd space. But I’ve made it this far. Whenever I upgrade in the next few years it’s gonna hurt. But I honestly don’t think I’ll go to 4k. Maybe 1440. 4k just doesn’t seem worth it and doesn’t look that much better if at all really. I think we peaked at 1080p and 24inch computer monitors. Sorry lol

        Resolution matters a lot less than pixel density. 1080p above 24" looks like shit so if you’re happy with your monitor size, definitely no need to upgrade
