Thanks you guys went above and beyond with your advice -
Do you think this rig will last me 2-3 years? Run modern games at least at medium settings 60fps
-
Thanks, for the next 2-3 years I will play in 1080p but I like my graphics to run at least on medium and I'm picky about the frame-rate. I like the performance of the 1060 even if this version has fewer CUDA but I'm worried about the Vram. Maybe I'm overthinking it and I should just make a decision, buy or wait probably won't go wrong either way.
-
It's definitely a good deal but as some have pointed out the new series isn't far away and I think my purchasing power will improve over the next 6 months. The motherboard is a ASUS Prime Z370, is that upgradeable? I'm lost when it comes to motherboards tbh
-
That was my first thought but the only parts left would be the HDD and chassis, and it would actually end up costing a similar amount as this new package, outside my budget if I were to get the 6GB version and a better CPU. What do you think about getting the deal from the OP and the upgrade my GPU in 2 years or so, will I be CPU bound at that point you think?
-
Yes I believe so though I actually don't remember more than that it's an old i5 atm.
-
Yes that crossed my mind but I have no experience selling parts, I'm not sure how long it would take to find a buyer willing to pay given that this card is... well not necessarily the most future proof.

Exactly in Sweden, we got taxes on taxes.
-
Great effort compiling that but I'm based in a high-tax country where this package I'm looking at really is a good deal. However I won't be able to afford 1170+ this year and I don't know when the 1160 will drop. If I do decide to wait though I think I will hold off on everything and build a proper rig around the new card I choose. Really on th fence about this whole thing both you and App4 make a lot of sense.
-
Yeah I'm inclined to agree but then again the new GTX series is rumored to not be far off so maybe it would be a better long-term investment to save up
-
8GB RAM and 240Gb SSD no operating system though but w/e
-
Well my current rig is old the only salvageable parts would be the HDD (yeah no SSD) and the chassis so I'd rather just get a new build. It's about time tbh
-
Weird, maybe I should save up for a 1160 build next year although the wait will be agonizing.
-
I guess I can always upgrade in the future, but then again if I chill for a couple of months the price might drop as nVidia launch their new series Sry I don't follow what you're asking about the i3?
-
It's a complete build for about 600 in US dollars which is great where I live. Good point, maybe I should wait and see it's just this offer really got me hard
