Soldato
This keeps itching at me.
I currently have a 5800x, MSI x570 board, 64gb 3600 RAM, AMD 7900xt, 1440p, 144hz monitor
System works great and has done for years.
It does everything I need really but....... There are two games PUBG and Cities Skylines 2 that I play that I know will benefit, even wuth the above system, my PUBG will drop down to maybe 100fps in action, down from 144 is somewhat significant.
And cities skylines 2 will literally eat whatever resources you can throw at it.
However, I'm trying to weigh it up, and as much as there are benefits, I also see a lot of negatives.
- my current 5800x CPU is a good one, it'll boost 5 GHz on all cores and doesn't go over 75c
- my current system is completely stable
- I'd would need to flash my bios, and there is always a risk doing that
- risk of changing hardware, damaging something etc - I am pretty experienced but there is always a risk
- risk of new CPU being a lemon (as in, bad batch/faulty)
- time (yes sounds lazy but taking your time to do it this will be a few hours)
- cost
- how ****** off with myself I will be if I do go ahead and something goes wrong
But........ I plan on keeping my system for years to come, this will ensure my current gen is basically maxed/future proofed as much as possible.
I need help!!!!!!!!
