Upgrade for the next 3-4 years

Kasenumi

Hi everyone 

Would Radeon Rx6800xt + Ryzen 5600x be a good value to performance improvement for ultra settings 1440p for the next 3-4 years? 

For Radeon GPU I think I need to buy a Freesync or Adaptive sync monitor.

I'd love to have new RTX 4000 GPU but it costs a fortune, so guess cheaper options for me. 

Or maybe wait till November for new generation Radeon GPU?

 

RTX2080 Gaming X Trio 

Ryzen 7 2700x 

16 GB DDR4 3200 MHz RAM

MOBO: Gigabyte AB350 Gaming 3 

1440p 144hz Gsync only monitor

Noctua NH-D15S cooling 

Fractal Design Torrent PC case

BeQuiet 700W PSU

 

I think Radeon might be a more reasonable option right now, considering GPU prices and lower power draw but then the new monitor cost...

Thank you

GPU: MSI GeForce RTX 2080 GAMING X TRIO 8GB;
RAM: G.Skill Flare X, DDR4, 16 GB,3200MHz, CL14;

Free-sync and G-sync are NOT needed for a monitor to work on those Graphics cards.

Its just a way of syncing frames between GPU and monitor, making it so that tearing and frame-dips don't look as bad.
A non G-sync or free-sync monitor would still display all the info fine. Just at fixed fps instead of adaptable.


And yes that system would surly work for that long.
But since you don't give a use-case we could say that about a very much slower PC too.

 

 

 

There's a reason the post was pre-filled with these questions!!

 

Budget (including currency): 

Country: 

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: 

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 

When i ask for more specs, don't expect me to know the answer!
I'm just helping YOU to help YOURSELF!
(The more info you give the easier it is for others to help you out!)

Not willing to capitulate to the ignorance of the masses!

Hi,

PC is for gaming and music only, nothing else. No streaming. No work tasks for a gaming PC, not even Office installed. Just gaming and music. I have a laptop for work purposes and everything else than games and Tidal.

But in brief I want it to be the best possible performance upgrade for the least money spent. Want to try ray tracing, especially in Cyberpunk 2077, with my current hardware I'd have to choose between 60 FPS and ray tracing. Can't have both. 

Country: Poland 

Budget: hard to say, in general if I had money for top end hardware I wouldn't create a topic like this 🙂
