So, this woeful tale starts with my PSU failing. I decided to buy something decent in preparation for an eventual upgrade (1000w Seasonic) in order to replace it.
I then (partly on a whim) managed to bag a 3060 last week at launch.
I've installed it and i'm.... underwhelmed. The performance increase compared to my 1070ti currently seems fairly average. I'm now guessing my ageing i5 4690k needs replacing - I'm assuming this is causing a bottleneck?
I think I could probably stretch to a 10850 with a good Motherboard, Cooler and 32 gig of fast RAM.
Any advice or recommendations?
PC is purely used for casual gaming (Warzone, Metro Exodus, GTAV). I have a good in-win case, and SSD's. Budget Max of £900 really.
Thanks in advance
