    Yeah, and even still I wouldn’t notice a difference cuz I’m using a really old gpu and yes I will be changing monitor when purchasing a gpu.

    I understand what your saying, but whether I get the i5 or i7 I’m still going to be held back by my gpu for a while so during that time I’m not getting much value from it, and tbh the last triple A game with amazing graphics I remember getting excited about was the Witcher 3 (hence the 970 lying...

    Basically I just want a system to play on where I will only have to upgrade the gpu at a later time. Ik it says on a thread that if I want to upgrade in the next 2,3 years then the purchase isn’t right. But this gpu shortage/ market thing is confusing and sounds like a bit of a joke and I have...

    Okay I think I have been sold to the intel i5 12600k in competition to the ryzen 5600x. This is for 1080p gaming atm to spend around 950 hoping to play atm then upgrade the gpu and monitor at a later time? Is this a good switch? If it is will my motherboard support the new ddr5 if I ever made...

    Really appreciate it! Just one more thing, in your opinion how long do you think my 970 will last inside ? It’s got a solid rep for an old card but I know it will bottleneck the cpu to some degree, I hope that’s the right terminology? I enjoy games such as Tarkov and Rust if that helps put it in...

    Thank you! Yes this will be for 1080p gaming, I really like your suggestions however it seriously pushes the budget I had in mind of around 800£. However, if this is a low expectation should I make the extra push for a higher budget if it will really help it survive in the long run as well as...
