Hi all, looking to possibly upgrade some parts with a view to potentially moving from 1140 to 4k monitor later down the line.
Current Rig:
Ryzen9 3900XT
3080 Strix OC
32GB DDR4
1000W PSU
AIO NZXT Kraken X63
Given my case, AIO,fans, m2 drives etc are fairly new I'm wondering whether upgrading incrementally is worth or whether it's a case of mobo, ram, cpu and GPU tp upgrade all in one go? Thinking of avoiding bottlenecks if there were a gap of say 6 months between GPU and CPU upgrades.
Been looking at pre builds, but don't think I can justify £6k when parts individually added to what I have now would have me 3-4k.
Ideally going ryzen to ryzen to avoid having to see if I kept the mounting bracket for the cooler, but not the end of the world were I do to intel. Mulling Ryzen 9 7950X3d or a 14900k (never been hot on intel so no idea if that's mega overkill).
Then either 4090 or whatever comes up later in the year if I did GPU 2nd.
Used predominantly for gaming, no streaming/editing or the like.
Any thoughts on what to look at first? Or even if what I'm looking at is complete overkill for my use case!
Thanks
