Consider upgrading if your system feels slow or outdated.
3 years ago I felt accomplished when I saved enough to purchase the system: AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X with 32GB RAM, 1080ti Quadro P2000, and an NVME Samsung drive. It came in a nice Corsair Air cube case, and the two graphics cards work together seamlessly. As an engineer, I use it for SolidWorks and architectural rendering tasks. Gaming was also a part of my routine—mainly Overwatch, but also COD, BF, GTA V, and I’m eager for CyberPunk. Although I’ve checked the specs for CyberPunk, I don’t think an upgrade is necessary. However, considering my job’s demands and the typical upgrade cycle in my field, I’d expect a refresh every few years. At work now, we’re aiming for at least a five-year refresh period. Upgrading would only make sense if I were a high-end gamer.

Early extractors struggle with games, but the 3000-series solved that. The newer 4000-series versions appear even superior, eliminating the 4c ccx

Sure, the 1080 Ti remains a solid GPU for gaming and performs well today. If you're looking for something newer, keep an eye on upcoming models like Ampere and Big Navi to see what they bring.
