Hello all,

I’ve built a spec for a new gaming PC and I’ve built it around being able to handle Cyberpunk 2077 on high settings in HD as I figured that would be a decent benchmark for the next few years. I’m hoping that it’ll last a few years before having to do any major upgrades. Could more knowledgable folk than myself confirm this will do the job?

It’s bang on my current budget of £1800, so I don’t really want to go above this unless it’s absolutely needed in order for it to do what I’ve indicated.

  • motherboard changed to MSI X870-P for better wifi (7)
  • RAM changed to corsair (virtually no different, but corsair's slightly cheaper for the same spec)
  • PSU changed from 1000W to 850W (1000W is excessive)
  • instead of a 1TB NVMe SSD & a 1TB HDD, a single 2TB NVMe SSD - much faster, and cheaper

lmk if you have any more questions

# fallen steeple Thank you very much! Not only is it now better, it’s cheaper. I know you can’t...

as games update their graphics (and new games release with higher graphics requirements), you may see small slowdowns, but your hardware's pretty good (in terms of futureproofing)

your GPU was released recently, and has a good amount of VRAM (16GB) to be able to do 1440p gaming for years (4+)

at 1080p it'll last even longer - 6 years or more IMO

it's a really good value PC and will definitely last for a while
