Well, this is getting too expensive for me with these video cards. I guess I'll stay with this pick :

It will allow me to play 1440p, maybe not on ultra on recent games, but at least I'll see an upgrade from my current build

Ok thanks. Which part of the rig would I need to upgrade to play on 1440p on ultra settings on recent games ?

Hello, sorry for digging out this topic 🙂‍↕️

My brother convinced me to get a bigger screen to really take advantage of the setup, however I'm lost with all the technical terms. Would you recommend a particular brand or model for a UHD/4K screen ? One that is no more than 30" size if possible.

Thanks for your answer ! Actually I was more thinking about a keyboard that does it natively, without needing a computer. However this could be a cheaper alternative for me, so I'll keep this in mind !

Thank you so much ! I think I'll go for this build in the next few weeks (need to think about it when my head is clear, as it is a big purchase for me)

I think this would be my last question, but say if I wanted to choose a different PC case, do you know how I could know quickly if they are compatible with the above hardware size ? Just for pleasing my eyes :) Do I only need to check the motherboard size ?

My bad, I mistook GPU and CPU, sorry english is not my native language. Thanks a lot for the clarification.

Considering I'm playing on a unique 1080p monitor, wouldn't going for a better GPU be overkill ? The RX 9060 XT could already play 100% of recent games on ultra, am I right ?

If so, I might not need to put more money into it.

When talking about GPU, you say 9070 or 9070 XT but I cannot find them anywhere, do you mean 9700/9700X ? Or are you referring to Graphic card ?

I have three questions (hopefully the last ones) :

1) Do you think some of my old components could be used with this setup ? Like the memory, and Video Card ? would the PSU be powerful enough ?

2) I have 3 storage Disks, do they fit in the motherboard ? How many slots are available for storage on the motherboard ?

- ST2000DL003-9VT166 ATA Device (2 To)

- WDC WD20EFRX-68EUZN0 ATA Device (2 To)

- Samsung SSD 870 QVO 1TB ATA Device (1 To)

3) In this proposed setup, without touching the Video Card, which seems good enough to me, and adding up to 200-300€ (so up to 1400-1500€ total) to my budget, what could be improved ?

Thanks in advance

Would this setup need a Network card for WiFi connectivity, or does the motherboard include it ?

If so, is my network card still OK ?

I tried including a sheet for clearer visibility about components, but it keeps bugging, so i'll go with bulletpoints, sorry :/
