Question (Budget) PC Overhaul [pt. 2]

[Wedod2]

EDIT:

I want to build a new PC in early (~March) 2024. I have not yet gotten into 4k gaming but I would like to play 1080p (or 1440p) games on max settings with a decent framerate (100+ not necessary). That would be the most strenuous use-case. I do not plan on overclocking etc but would like this PC to not need upgrades for at least the next few years.

In case any of my old components are reusable, here is my current build: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Wedod/saved/#view=ZBpJxr

I would like to spend $1000-$2000 ($1500 would be ideal).

Thanks!

I think I could reuse the PSU

Even if the PSU was brand new, I'd have suggested to throw it into the bin. That unit is the cause of a lot of headaches.

case
The sort of heatware you will have in 2024, might be a little too much for that case, with inadequate airflow.

and maybe memory (w/ addition)
DDR3 will not work with anything today. Even hardware from 2020 are on DDR4. We're now on DDR5.

Can you specify he use case scenario's for your PC? It'll help us tailor your suggestions.

Question - (Budget) PC Overhaul

I have a PC that is significantly old, and any upgrading will require replacing many components. Here is my current build: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Wedod/saved/#view=ZBpJxr I think I could reuse the PSU, case, storage, and maybe memory. I would like to keep the whole build under $800...
