Hi Guys, looking for some help to upgrade my system, currently running on the system within my signature. Working within the confines of my case, if possible, can I upgrade to a newer system? Push comes to shove, I am happy to spend circa £3k for an upgrade case and all.

Games of description, currently of note, to consider:
  • Escape from Tarkov
  • God of War: Ragnarok
  • Cyberpunk 2077
  • Nioh 3
  • Final Fantasy VII remake
I want to future proof, 2.5 years as a minimum. This boy has some house selling money to spend, but also a car and life to pay for.

Thank you, love you.

For context for the group, I do wish for OCUK to build this system, I am not confident enough (please do not express how easy it is, for you it is but for some fella who can't handle failure not so much).

Purchase Timeframe: within the next 4 months

Budget: <£2.5k at 14440p (I do not need monitors)

Usage: Effectively daily, it matters on football and boxing requirements but I do get at least 4 hours per day, including extra work use.

Preferences: No preference, current system is intel but I do know AMD is better for CPU better gaming profiles. Im open and easy.

Current Hardware:

Corsair Graphite Series 230T | i5 4670K @ 4.3GHz
MSI Z87-G43 Gaming Series | Sapphire AMD R9 290 Tri-X 4906MB
TeamGroup Vulcan Gold 2x4GB 2133MHz | Samsung 840 EVO 120GB
Seagate Barracuda 1TB HDD | Super Flower 550W PSU


Peripherals: None needed

Special Needs/Requirements (inc Wi-Fi): Wi-fi build into system, I am not luxurious enough to have ethernet connections. I would love windows 11, mainly becuase my current OCuK system refuses to upgrade (Y).
 
I'm going to take the above as you'd prefer 2.5k but can stretch to 3k if necessary as long as it doesn't eat into any build fees.

It's arse-o'clock right now but shall get back to it tomorrow (later today), but I'm sure that others will chip in prior.

Yeah essentially, preffer budget is <2.5k but can defintely run into the <3.5k range if it future proofs for longer. Appreciate any support anyone can give.
