Upgrades

[Capt_Monk]

 

Hello,

So I built my gaming pc almost a year ago, and I'm starting to look at upgrades for it. I'm definitely going to get more RAM and Storage, but I was wondering whether it would be more beneficial to upgrade my GPU to a 4070 or my CPU to 12900kf. I use my PC mainly for Gaming/streaming, video editing semi-professionally, and Blender. Any thoughts would be welcome!   

 

Current Specs:

12600kf

Nvidia 4060

16GB G. Skill Ripjaws V

1tb SSD

MSI Z790 Pro DDR4

Corsair Rm750e

Thermalright Peerless Assassin

Montech X3 Mesh

Mostly FPS and Rendering times in Davinci Resolve, which uses a lot of CPU and GPU power

FPS and GPU rendering performance would be improved by upgrading the GPU.

Knowing your budget and country you are located would help. With that said the first thing you want is 32GB of RAM.

Definitely for the RAM, it is between a 4070 and a 12900kf. I was wondering which would see more gains in performance based on my system. Budget is the max price of a 4070. From USA
