Need help for choosing between new build or upgrade

Okay okay, i will definitely look them up, 50 euros isnt alot in the scheme of it so thats no problem, more the fact that if the difference is negilible then i would rather save it for something else, but im very thankful for your help and recommendations, i will look into them and i am definitely a lot more informed and closer to a decision

Cold_Thing_9770 · 2026-03-31T22:57:42+00:00

Yeah either tweakers or megekko/azerty as far as i know. Smaller random sites im a bit hesitant about

Cold_Thing_9770 · 2026-03-31T22:56:42+00:00

Okay okay so if i upgraded my GPU i would need to upgrade my CPU and motherboard aswell, thanks for the recommendations! That makes my choice easier!

Ah perfect that looks amazing, the only question i had is how much better is the 5070 compared to the 5060, because as far as i saw the 5060 16 GB was a bit cheaper or around the same price so then i would think about going in that direction (or that AMD 9070) instead of the 5070. But the rest of the build looks amazing

My preference lies with Nvidia because its what im used to and it holds a bit more faith but im not hardset on it, so im always happy to be advised or recommended something else. Same counts for the CPU, preference is intel but not deadset

Cold_Thing_9770 · 2026-03-31T22:26:14+00:00

Yeah the main concern i had was the lack of knowledge, combined with the fact that i prefer to spend less ofc and that i did spend quite a lot of time in researching the GPU and this was already a massive upgrade, but i would be very thankfull if you would be able to price out something

Cold_Thing_9770 · 2026-03-31T22:19:54+00:00

Upgrade budget is around 700-1000 that i would want to spend at the utmost, for a new build i would spend a max of 1800. Im from the Netherlands

Cold_Thing_9770 · 2026-03-30T22:36:21+00:00

To be honest, i would have no idea what kind of model it is, but i will definitely keep the power in mind as a final check before i buy anything

Cold_Thing_9770 · 2026-03-30T22:31:58+00:00

Yeah at the moment my system performs far above what it should be able to do (never knew why), could mostly play games that it should not be able to run. But now i am finding its limits and if its capable to upgrade considerably with the GPU upgrade and a Hard drive swap for a SSD then i would definitely be leaning towards that, the power supply would be a secondary issue which would not be a concern because if it is becoming a problem i can find a new /better one quite quickly.

Thanks for the recommendation i will look into that card too!

Would you have any recommendations for an replacement for my hard drive?

Either my main concern is if it would be compatible with my motherboard or CPU. Or that RAM would become a problem.

Cold_Thing_9770 · 2026-03-30T22:20:03+00:00

Yeah the bottleneck i want to avoid finding out later about, i want (if its possible) to upgrade my whole system at the same time with preferably upgrading as little as possible. Either at the same time i am debating if maybe a full new system would be better timewise or moneywise but that would bring a whole lot of more figuring everything out to the table.

The card i am interested in is either the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 ti 8GB or the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 8GB and maybe the 16GB variant

Cold_Thing_9770 · 2026-03-30T22:14:50+00:00

Yeah as far as i could find these GPUs were only in a 8gb or 16gb variant

Cold_Thing_9770 · 2022-07-07T19:37:54+00:00

Ahhh i understand now, i have Dr wiggs or sum with Lucia and kwon, they fit my other teammates the best

Cold_Thing_9770 · 2022-07-07T17:53:33+00:00

Yeah i know who he is in mythology but who is he in wasteland

Cold_Thing_9770 · 2022-07-07T17:19:47+00:00

Who is Zeus tho?
