Hey Chaps,
Just wondering if there is much to gain, aside from itching the upgrade bug, to getting my PC refit with some new parts. I play a lot of games, at 3440 x 1440 with a monitor that can do 120hz, as well as photoshop work and general business related stuff.
Current system is:
4790K, not overclocked but could do
1080
850w Psu (an expensive one)
4 x 4gb DDR3 Ram
I currently have a small loop with the CPU in it, the GPU keeps nice and cool on its own. Looking at possibly going for Ryzen 3800X and sticking 2x8gb sticks in side it to get me going. It would be nice to get full use out of my £800 monitor, as I only get maybe 60 FPS on most games with the thing. Do I need to look at getting a new GPU as well? Is SLI still a thing?
Thanks,
Grady
