We have up to 1200 if there is anything that could be upgraded for a longer use supernova g2, focus gold, txm, formula gold, whisper m, rmx, or psu's like that could even last 10 years if you do it right. that might be a nice upgrade, you could go higher on the cpu, but if it isn't strong enough down the line, there will probebly be better am4 chips out by then, you could add an nvme ssd if you want things to load faster, add a more silent case, a stronger gpu if other workloads than the one you mentioned can use it more, a bigger harddrive, or 2 for raid, You can do all of that inside your budget, but this one would do too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
