Long story short, after some problems with my current build, which you can find under my previous posts, I've started thinking about building a new one. Talked with my friend about it, and we don't have a 100% winner here, because there are still some variables such as specs of 3060 Ti, for example.
Basic info:
Approximate Purchase Date: Q4 2020;
Budget Range: $1000-$1500;
System Usage from Most to Least Important: gaming, surfing, movies;
Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080;
Current theoretical build:
PSU: Seasonic Focus Gold GX-650 650W;
MB: Gigabyte x570 Gaming X;
GPU: Sapphire RX 5700 XT 8GB or new RX 6800 XT or upcoming RTX 3080 TI; - is first option too old for this build? Should I buy the upcoming 6800 XT or wait for the 3080 Ti?
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X or AMD Ryzen 5 5600X or AMD Ryzen 7 5800X; - is third one worth it? It costs almost 50% more.
RAM: HyperX DDR4-3600 2x8 GB;
SSD: Samsung 970 Evo Plus M.2 500 GB;
HDD: WD BLUE 1 TB;
Coolers: none? I'm stupid with that part.
What options are obviously with the most value? I'm not looking for 4k 60 fps gaming, more or less I don't care about 4k at all, I just wanna chill and play upcoming next gen games even on medium settings. The most important question is whether these options will be worth it overtime or not, so I don't have to think about PC builds for the next 2+ years. Also, maybe you find some of my choices to be not so good? Moreover, maybe you have much better parts in mind, that are more reliable?
Wanna hear all of the opinions.
To be honest, hoping to cheapen down the build a bit, since, once again, I'm looking mostly for 1920x1080 gaming.
Thank you!
