3000$ GPU/CPU/RAM upgrade for Cyberpunk 2077 and Real Estate related work

trzasku

Hello. I am from Poland. I am looking to upgrade my PC to make my work feel smoother and to play Cyberpunk 2077 on ultra at at least 60 FPS @3440x1440. I am an Real estate developer and work mostly from my PC using variouse websites with terrain/satelites, big Excel spreedsheets, Google Maps, Google Earth, Maps, big PDF files, Photoshop (big files). I also use virtual machines. I run a 3 monitor setup with two 2560x1440 and one 3440x1440 100hz monitor.

 

My main goal is to make the work as smooth as possible (no lags, long pdf/excel/photoshop loading etc.) and to play games. I can spend as much money as nessesary, but I do not want to throw money out of the windows if It only benefits me very little in comparison to a cheaper part (for example the slight fps boost of the RTX 3090 is not worth the money difference between the RTX 3080 for me).

 

GPU upgrade options that I consider (GTX 1080Ti OC atm):

  1. RTX 3080: Gaming X Trio or Asus ROG Strix

CPU upgrade options that I consider (i7-3770K OC atm):

  1. i9-10900K - I read this is the best one. I only had Intel CPU's all my life. Will it benefit to the work mentioned?
  2. i7-10700K
  3. Ryzen 9 3900X
  4. Ryzen 7 3700X

Motherboard  upgrade options that I consider (MSI Z77 MPower atm) :

  1. No idea, anything from the rankings that looks good for my build?

RAM upgrade options that I consider. I have no idea how I should choose RAM, do I go with looks or are there any major differences in this sticks. I also consider 64 vs 32 GB (DDR3 RAM atm):

  1. Corsair Vengeance LPX
  2. Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro
  3. Corsair Dominator Platinum RG
  4. HyperX Fury RGB
  5. TEAM XTREEM ARGB
  6. G.Skill Trident Z Neo

SSD upgrade options that I consider:

  1. Newest Samsung m2?

 

I have a Corsair RM 650x PSU, will it be enough?

 

Thank you very much for your time and help :)

I'd suggest listing your budget in Euros, assuming you can order from Germany or another European country on PCPartPicker....$ pricing isn't at all relevant to you.

As for your parts options, I'd look for a 5600x/5800x, 32GB of RAM, and a 3080. Though good luck finding a CPU and GPU, they're in high demand.

As for what kind of RAM, go with the cheapest CL16 3600+ mhz kit you can find. Brand doesn't really matter.

SSD, I'd look at the cheapest m.2 in a large capacity. The SX8200 Pro is usually a good bet.

if your playing games at 1080p and 1440p then get the 6800 xt
if your playing game at 1800p and above then get a 3080

for whatever reason the 6800 xt doesnt like 4k as much as the 3080 does but at the same time the 6800 xt ends up beating the 3080 in lower resolutions like 1080p and 1440p

another thing, a r5 5600x performs just as well or better than a r7 3700x due to its 20%~ ipc uplift over zen 2 

 

as far as ram goes i personally recommend the G.SKILL Trident Z Neo 16gb (2x8) 3600mhz ram kit if you go the zen 3 route (get either 2x8 or 4x8, but 64gb will be overkill)

and when it comes to ssd's and how well they perform in windows 10 boot times and loading times in games sata ssd's perform exactly the same as m.2 ssd's BUT because you work with bigger files you have a real reason to get a m.2 ssd

and that psu should be okay with a reference 3080, and it will definitely be okay with a 6800 xt

Ok, I will read about the 5800X vs i9-10900K. I see the 5800X has 8 cores and Intel 10. Are the 10 cores not better for work in several program at one time?

Yeah 10 cores, but slower cores, that's why 5800x beat it.

10900k is no longer the best.

AMD have no 10 cores, only 6, 8, 12 and 16.

Ryzen 5700g @ 4.4ghz all cores | Asrock B550M Steel Legend | 3060 | 2x 16gb Micron E 2666 @ 4200mhz cl16 | 500gb WD SN750 | 12 TB HDD | Deepcool Gammax 400 w/ 2 delta 4000rpm push pull | Antec Neo Eco Zen 500w
