Hey guys,
I've been planning to upgrade my PC for a few years now. I currently sport a machine running on a 3.60 Ghz AMD FX-4100, 8GB RAM and a GTX 980.
Since The Divison 2 comes out soon and Cyperpunk is around the corner as well, I finally decided to pull the trigger and get a completely new PC.
I would appreciate any feedback, it's been a while since I've last built a PC - I am planning to use this computer for work and gaming (duh!).
PCPartPicker already indicates one issue which I am not sure how to solve - this is one of my main concerns. Should I just go with a single 2TB SSD (I want the 500GB one as a system drive and the 1TB one for games)
I could not find the monitor I picked on PCPartPicker, so I am linking to the manufacturer page:
