Currently thinking for the future about not getting a next gen console apart from the switch and going PC only. Not really into FPS Shooters, but do enjoy the Forza series on my Xbox 1X so will be using the Gamepass and hoping to get the new flight sim.

My Current Pc which plays all that stuff fine at 60 FPS mostly at 1080p is the Following.

I5 7600k overclocked to 4.5
Rx 480 8gb
8gb Ram, can’t remember what speed.
250gb Ssd
2Tb hdd.
Worth upgrading or totally new build. Don’t want to spend more than £800

Save yourself some money, Just upgrade the Graphics card for now. No Idea what to though as the new slight sim isnt out yet & there's conflicting advice out there on what the recommended graphics card spec is.

If you play mostly older games then that CPU will do decently.

Though that 8GB of memory is too little and another 8GB should be added.
It was already minimum when that CPU was new.

For that low resolution you don't need to buy any expensive graphics card.
Anyway current GPUs won't hold their value well or long for future games, no matter the price.
