It’s time for me to build a new gaming computer. I’m looking to build something that will last me the next 5 years, my last 5 year build is at its end.
My planned build:
6000MT/s 64GB 32x2 gskill trident z5
PCIe 4.0 m.2 nvme 2TB mushkin vortex
Asus prime z670p
AMD Ryzen 9 7900x
Case, PSU, water cooling are just fun extras.
I use a lot of VMware, hence the memory. And I game a bunch, mostly EFT (tarkov) of late.
I like AMD, I’ve always had an AMD CPU, usually with Nvidia GFX.
I’m want to try AMD for graphics. I run 2k graphics, but I see myself getting a 4k 27inch freesync monitor in the future.
I’m looking at the 7900 xtx, it’s just super pricey. It’s about a year old, so it doesn’t feel like a good decision.
I’m looking for a graphics card recommendation, I’d appreciate any other comments or suggestions for the rest of my build.
Using a 6650 xt and FSR balanced to play Baldur’s Gate 3 at 4K looked pretty good on a 4K TV, although a monitor is gonna be closer to your face and you’re gonna need more vram if you’re playing those really new AAA games at 4k and 1440p.
