Should I build a new system or buy a new GPU?

[Pumba217]

Hi,

 

So I currently have a 4770k, Noctua CPU cooler, 16gb DDR3 Corsair ram, GTX 770, 128gbSSD for boot and 600W corsair PSU.

 

It is now 6 years old and i just play games and have upgraded to a 1440p 144hz monitor and want to harness all that goodness.

Is my CPU/Ram combo good atm and will it bottlneck a 2070 or 3070? Or should I build a new PC altogether. Most likely go Ryzen CPU.

Cheers

depends on what budget you have and what games you play

 

you could go with a GPU upgrade first, then up the CPU if it's not up to snuff for what you want.

 

the 4770k is still ok for games, tho some require more cpu core and freq

Yeah makes sense. For me its most AAA games. Getting back into gaming after a few years

Horizon zero dawn looks good although i heard optimization is bad

yea it's badly ported

 

most AAA games are fine, you can upgrade your CPU if you think it's not good enough anytime
