Hi guys,
It's been nearly five years since i built my current computer, and it's starting to really show its age now with newer games struggling to run well on high settings. It's also struggling with streaming and recording/editing video now, of which the video editing is sometimes needed for my work.
Ideally, i'm looking for a machine that can play new games on as close to maximum settings as possible that will also be good for streaming and video editing. The budget will be £1,500-2,000, and as i already have all the peripherals i'll need the budget doesn't need to go into things like monitors. I also already have storage sorted. My current build is below, and aside from the case i'm not sure if any of it is salvageable given that we've had some architecture leaps since i built this, but i'd love to hear if my thoughts on that are true or not!
MSI MAG X570 TOMAHAWK WIFI (AMD AM4) DDR4 X570 ATX Motherboard
Corsair RM650, RM Series, 80 Plus Gold Certified, 650 W Fully Modular ATX Power Supply
Phanteks Eclipse P500A
AMD Ryzen 7 3700X Processor
MSI RADEON RX 5700 XT GAMING X Graphics Card '8GB GDDR6
Corsair CMW32GX4M2E3200C16 VENGEANCE RGB PRO 32GB
ARCTIC Freezer 34 eSports DUO
If any of this aside from the case is useable, that would be great, but i'm not hung up on keeping old parts so if something like the RAM is technically useable, but easily upgraded then i'm happy to upgrade and sell my current parts.
I don't have any strong feelings towards Nvidia/AMD/Intel for any of the parts, so there's no restrictions or biases here.
Thanks for the help, it's greatly appreciated!
