Here is my Old build

ryzen 1500x

msi mortar b350m

1TB Seagate hdd

500 gb Kingston ssd

stock cooler

8 GB of Crucial ram - 2400

asus gtx 1060 3g dual

fractal design R6 chassis

seasonic focus plus gold 550

 

Currently, I am planning to build a new rig that can play AAA Titles as well as video editing,I kinda got a few parts already but I am not sure if others needs to be changed to meet this requirement.But surely I would need a graphics card recommendation.

Here are some items I might plan to reuse to save cost, R6 Case, Storages.

I currently bought

Cpu : Ryzen 3700 X

Cooler = stock( I suppose is good enough(?))

motherboard : MSI B450 Gaming pro carbon Ac

Ram :(32GB) 16GB x 2 of Trident Z Royal 3200

PSU : I think I can continue using the old build one (?)If not what should I get?

GPU : I would need some recommendations for this.

I have also added 3 x Corsair LL120 fans to the existing case.

Any recommendations are greatly appreciated! Thanks!

PSU is good quality so you can use it in the new build no problem.

 

As for the GPU recommendation: What is the budget and what resolution and refresh rate are you gonna be playing at?

 

Also: If the PC doesn't start when you build it you probably have to update the BIOS (which you need an older CPU for...). I think that this is unlikely as manufactures have loaded the new BIOS on boards that are newer, but sometimes stock in stores can be quite old and have boards with the old BIOS.

Please mention or quote me if you want a response. :)

So really you only need a gpu now?

 

What resolution/refresh rate do you play games at?

I have flashed the new bios into the motherboard for the ryzen 3000 series compatibility.As for the gpu,my Budget is around 650-700 usd,Sadly my monitor is not 144hz but 4k 60 hz.

Yep, I have bought the rest of the new parts as stated, I actually don’t mind the resolution or refresh rate as I am not that of a hardcore gamer even if I were to go for high refresh rate, my monitor would be a problem cause it is a 4K 60hz monitor. Do you recommend me to save Budget and not to change the stock cooler or just maintain it ?

Ok. I'm thinking someting like the RTX 2080 Super for the GPU.

2060 or RX5700 can do 4k at 60fps. It should be enough.

That's the only thing you need right now i assume.

Would 2070 be overkill or not worth it?

Why not? Gaming industry always advancing, overkill today maybe under performing tomorrow.

every 2-3 years the games will demand more performance from the system.

How about RTX 2070 Super or 2070?

That would also be fine. I was just trying to find someting that hit the roof of the budget. :)
