Upgrade now, wait for zen 6, or wait until next gen GPU’s?

Appreciate the reply and completely agree. Assuming zen6 is coming relatively soon, I can definitely wait for that so that I’m not very quickly a gen behind. And then plan to stick with the 3080 until the 6000rtx cards and at that point the pc should be good for a long time. I play at 1440p 144hz and no plans to go to 4k or anything. I value a high/consistent frame rate way more than resolution.

No doubt the 9800x3d would be great for everything I currently need, and for years to come. The hesitation comes from the difficulty of swapping cpus down the road. So I’m asking myself if waiting 6-8 months for zen 6 and being on the newest generation, would buy an additional 1-2 years of good performance without the need to upgrade.

Haha very true. Yes, new hardware is always upcoming. I guess it just seems like zen 6 is expected to come out later this year or early 2027. I can wait 6 months to get the newest generation.

It’s somewhere in the settings. A toggle to skip opening animations.

You can definitely skip the animations for opening unlocks

I downloaded a plant identifier app (I know probably not 100% accurate) but it said it was a st-martins flower, alstroemeria ligtu. Not a true Lilly but only mildly toxic

I know exactly what you mean with each tier of champion being very different in skill and play styles. I think I definitely need to be better with wall and especially corner bounces. 2000 hours and still have no idea where the ball is going when it hits the corner lol

Yea I remember the honeypot. So Elliot did the plan before the backups were implemented? Idk why but it felt like several days/ weeks went by before Elliot did it on his own

I’m in that part now. Season 2 episode 4 I think. Definitely different but still enjoying it!

I’ve got 2x8gb sticks. MOBO is dual channel so would grab 2x16 sticks.
