So I currently have a dated system with a few items I'm looking to keep but a new cpu/mobo/ram combo in mind. With a budget of roughly 300 dollars (US).
I mainly use it for gaming like overwatch, pubg, total war warhammer 2.
I have a 1050ti, 2tb hdd, 650w psu.
First, how difficult is taking out my current parts to replace the mobo? Should I just get a new case?
Also I'm looking at the 1300x and I like amd's am4 model being supported for the next few years. However, Intel 8th gen has the better gaming capabilities I believe but the mobo is expensive and limiting. Will there be new Intel mobos that are cost effective enough to rival amd? Also should I wait for the 2nd gen ryzen line? Not sure what cost will be and in general will the current line of ryzen go up, down, or stay the same once the new ones are out?
