Is this system moderately future proof ?

[samiur]

Nothing is future proof all thing ages i know but can this system perform admirably for the next 5-6 years ?

My Primary works are graphics designing , editing mostly 720p videos , Photoshop works , Gaming at 1080p at 50-60 fps , Content consumption (lots of) 

Cpu : i5 9400 upgraded from g5420 Pentium 

Ram : 16 GB DDR4 2133 (Upgraded from 8)

Motherboard : Gigabyte H310M M.2 2.0

SSD : 128gb Transcend 110s

Storage : 2.5tb drives (some usb one Sata) 

PSU : Gigabyte P450b 80+ Bronze  (i know its a suspicious unit but its running fine for 1 year so no complain )

GPU : Asus TUF gtx 1650 Super 4GB DDR6 (not gonna oc )

for 5-6 years? Unlikely

First i would recomend getting another internal hardrive or tear the external drive apart and put that none inside (Less chanse of someting going bad physically to the drive.

My assumptions
GPU: 2-3 Years (AAA Games 1080p med/high 60fps)

RAM: 4-7 Years
SSD: NOW (128gb in my opinion is way to smal for a os drive in 2021)
PSU: After CPU and GPU upgrade probably.
CPU:  2-7 Years (6 Cores that can boost at ca 4ghz will be good for a long time for 1080p i believe but you can never totally know)

i would get faster memory i was running slow memory like that and switch and worth it but that all a bigger psu like a 650w but that would last awhile

Well considering the 9400f already stutters in new AAA games I'd say it's already not current proof.

 

So if you want a part by part list:

Cpu: Already not enough
Ram: Sure fine

Board: It's a motherboard not a good one and cannot handle the only relevant cpu on the platform which is a 9900 so well not a good board

Ssd: Extremely small not great at all

Hdd: Yeah those are not going to be usable when the ps5/xbox series become the main consoles

Psu: Sure it runs for now. These WILL die at random you are literally running on luck. The amount of people that I don't come across with the yeah it works fine for me and then it breaks is too damn high

Gpu: Fine for now probably going to last a couple of years at 1080p

Doesn't matter on 9th gen. Barely a difference.

 

Psu wattage means little it needs to be a GOOD QUALITY psu too. 450w is plenty good for this system as is but not on that psu they have.

psu get hot to... and good quality psu ok ya but you want it to last and keep your pc cool if you play games for hours at a time it will get hot and bronze is mea gold is like the new standard
