Hey All,
I am getting back into pc gaming a bit more after being AFK for some time, and I feel my pc's age when I started playing Helldivers. So I have come to find some purchasing and build guidance in this sea of overwhelming options. I have one budget, but two PC's to upgrade since my Wife's PC is also a bit old. Find below the details:
My Current Rig:
GPU: RTX 3070 Ti 8gb
CPU: Ryzen 5 2600x
Mobo: Asus PRIME X470-PRO
16gb RAM
PSU: I think its a 750W
Resolution: Twin screen 1080p
Use Case: Gaming
My desired upgrades: I think the GPU should be fine, so just looking for some quality advice on the rest. Unless there is a more than significant price to value increase in upgrading the GPU.
My Wifes current Rig:
GPU: GTX 1070ti
CPU: Ryzen 5 3400 (3.6ghz)
Mobo: Asus Prime A320M-K
RAM: 32 GB
PSU: 600 or 750W
Resolution: Twin screen 1080p
Use Case: Gaming, Rendering/Blender etc
We think probably a GPU upgrade should be enough, but not sure how big of a bottleneck the CPU is, it would just be a bit costly to do an AM5 upgrade for both of us.
We both really want to get into ARK: Survival Ascended, and she plays a lot of Minecraft. I'd really like to play something like Cyberpunk or Dragons dogma and Helldivers and enjoy myself doing so.
Budget wise, we're probably looking at around 12k - 20k for both of us combined. Would be awesome to get some informed suggestions.
Thanks in advance for those who can make the time for a reply
