Your current specs are listed in your profile, and you're weighing whether to upgrade now or later, and what components to focus on.

I’m curious if my current setup can support newer games such as bf5, shadow of the tombraider, far cry 5 and the upcoming metro exodus. Additionally, I’d like to know how long it would take to play the latest games at least on high settings with 1080p at 120fps. Thanks in advance.
. Thanks for your response.
I could wait until next year or the following year to evaluate whether the new RTX graphics cards would be significantly superior to the present ones and if they could handle ray tracing effectively. I’d also have more funds then . Thanks for your response.

RAM prices seem unusual right now, possibly dropping or staying the same. Overall, you're at the end of your options with this setup. As mentioned before, future-proofing doesn't make sense. Instead, focus on timing your upgrade and considering how easy or cheap it will be when you decide. In your current setup, you could opt for an i7 and overclock it, which might extend its usability compared to an i5.
