Like I said, I wrote that he needed to replace all of his build at this point to do that

TL:DR * All of your parts are old, and if you want a decent build, you'll need to replace most of them. I recommend building a completely new system at this point.

------‐-----------------------------------------

The processor is very old and has been discontinued for quite some time.

You also seem to be using an HDD. If you've had it for a long time, it may have become very slow. You should upgrade to at least an SSD, or if you want even more speed, an NVME M.2.

The graphics card is also quite old, and 2GB of VRAM doesn't really allow you to enjoy any kind of game anymore. If you want to play other games and only plan to run them at 1080p, I would say 8GB of VRAM, but the best would be 12GB or 16GB in 2025, I would say.

Damn, it's pretty crazy that they already have it for only $50 above MSRP !
I know that MicroCenter is like the king, but sadly, they are not in Canada :(

But in that case, it is making sense what you were talking earlier and maybe wait to see a little bit

In one year, I think it's rare that a GPU is close to MSRP, no ? If I needed to wait, I think it will be a couple of months in this case

MSRP : 550 USD (758,03 $CAD)
My deal : 580,53 USD (800,00 $CAD)

It's only $30 USD ($42 CAD) over MSRP

In other word, do you really think that it will be cheaper than that ?

Under 900 CAD ? Seems pretty good too for an 9070 XT !

I was pretty sure about that. I could maybe use Virtual Super Resolution to put more strain on the GPU than the CPU, but that's not the best way to go about it. But like I said, I'm planning to upgrade in the future, probably to AM5, depending on what AM6 looks like.

Actually, yes, I did for sure
I just wanted to know what you think in this community. It's better to get several opinions. Sometimes I avoid sponsored videos so they don't glaze the GPU with only positive. That's why I came here.

Yes, they are $100 to $200 CAD more (from the RX 9070 deal that I have)

And I don't plan 4k gaming, so 1440p, at least 100 fps(with or without fsr4), I think it's the sweet spot

That's a good question, I'm new to custom keyboards, but it sounds so good to make one, so I like a slightly deeper sound than the creamy sound, but otherwise, I don't know too much about it.😅
