Hello everyone,
I have a generic question as I recently build a new Desktop PC for gaming purposes (Last build was in 2010). I already have put together, imaged, and setup the machine but am considering upgrading my RAM / Graphics Card in the near future. Was hoping to get some opinions as to whether its worth it.
My Current build is;
Case: Thermaltake A500 Aluminum Tempered Glass Gaming Case
Processor: Intel® Core™ i9-9900KF Processor (8x 3.60GHz/16MB L3 Cache)
Motherboard: ASUS TUF Z390-PLUS GAMING -- RGB, 802.11ac WiFi, USB 3.1 (6 Rear, 4 Front), TUF Protection
Memory: 16 GB [8 GB X2] DDR4-3000 Memory Module - G.SKILL Ripjaws V
Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER - 8GB GDDR6 (VR-Ready) - Single Card
Power Supply: 850 Watt - Thermaltake Toughpower Grand RGB - 80 PLUS Gold, Full Modular
Processor Cooling: Thermaltake Water 3.0 240 ARGB Sync Edition RGB Liquid Cooling System
Primary Hard Drive: 1TB GB Samsung 860 PRO SSD -- Read: 560MB/s, Write: 530MB/s
Data Hard Drive: 2 TB Seagate Barracuda Hard Drive -- 256MB Cache, 7200RPM, 6.0Gb/s
External Optical Drive: ASUS USB 2.0 External Slim CD/DVD Writer (Black)
Sound Card: 3D Premium Surround Sound Onboard
Network Card: TP-Link Archer T6E AC1300 Wireless Network Card 802.11ac Dual-Band (2.4GHz/5GHz) up to 867 Mbps
USB Expansion Card: PCI-Express USB 3.0 Expansion Card (2x External Port + 1x Header)
Case Fans: 3x [RGB] Thermaltake Riing Trio 12 Radiator 120mm RGB LED Fan
What I am considering to change out would be the RAM to Corsairs 3200 32GB Vengeance sticks. (Is it worth it) https://www.newegg.com/corsair-32gb...+ram-_-20-236-454-_-2&Description=corsair+ram
I have read that my current graphics card, RTX 2080 Super will be falling behind sooner than later (Weakest Link) and was thinking about the difference between the RTX 2080 Ti....
Thoughts, opinions?
