Additional Comments: I care more about the noise level than blingy fans. So, something that's relatively quiet would be nice.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: My current PC is about 8 years old. I mostly play strategy games with a little bit of shooters and RPGs. Baldur's Gate 3 is the main reason I'm looking to upgrade.
I've built my last 3 PCs. I don't have an issue doing that. But, if spending $100-150 more saves me the time shopping around and slapping something together; then I'm fine with a prebuilt.
Realistically, based on my past builds, I don't do a lot of upgrading. Typically, this has only happened if a component dies. I've also added RAM. But, I won't get much value out of future proofing.
Thanks
