It’s been 8 years since I bought it and it still runs like a champ but ideally I’d like to actually utilize the 4k portion of my monitors.

Current Build:
Processor: Ryzen 7 3700X
Motherboard: ASUS B550-F
RAM: 32GB DDR4
GPU: GTX 1060 6GB

Ideally I’d like to hit at least 16GB of VRAM since I’m of the opinion that if I’m gonna spend more than $500 on a graphics card, it better at least last the next decade of new releases gaming wise. My motherboard can probably stand an upgrade too since I have a bunch of unused USB-C ports due to the fact that the B550-F doesn’t have any 3.1 headers.

Don’t really have a budget but I’m posting this in the hopes someone will tell me “don’t buy the 4080 super you idiot” and inform me of a better, cheaper, alternative majima-dapper

.

obviously YES I will be running windows, linuxheads please remain calm dennis-stare

    I picked up a laptop last year with similar specs but a 3080TI and if those are coming down in price, would recommend. Absolutely tanks everything I’ve thrown at it so far on max settings.

    I had a 1070 for about 6 or 7 years that did really well! It was still chugging along when I got the new laptop, but other parts of it were breaking down so thats why I upgraded.
