New Build Help

[Jdevonport]

Hi All

My eldest needs a new PC - however, I too have been thinking I want to upgrade my own Rig. So rather than spending a £1000 on a decent system for my son, I thought why not treat myself - and pass on my old system as the spec is still pretty good.

Currently I have;

3090FE
AMD 5900X
32GB DDR4 Ram
Gigabyte B550 VISION D-P (AMD AM4) B550 ATX Motherboard
Corsair Force MP510 series 1920GB NVMe PCIe M.2 Solid State Drive
850W PSU

Thoughts on my old system for current gen games? Is the CPU a bottleneck?

---

I am looking at a 5080 GPU and the AM5 chipset with an X3D cpu, AIO cooler. For this, I am hoping to keep under £2000 - just the system, no monitor etc needed. Your recommendations would be greatly appreciated as I have not kept up to date with current tech specs. Primary use is for gaming, potentially some streaming too. I hope I have covered everything???

motherboard not available at ocuk, but available elsewhere for the same price - google
unless you specifically need to stick to the nvidia ecosystem, would recommend to drop the 5080 for the 9070xt which would save £400 - the 9070xt is equivalent to the 5070ti

Thank you for the suggestion - I think I want to tweek the build for 64gb RAM and maybe an AIO water cooler. Budget is an issue though, so I was thinking that if I hold off on the GPU for now - so replace everything expect my 3090. then run with this until the new Nvidia super cards arrive? Any problems with this that I am not thinking about? I can then set my kid up with my old parts and he will have to make do with the 5700xt he has for now???
