The setup you have is suitable for moderate to high graphics and multitasking, but it may need some improvements for smoother performance.

Identify the software tools for recording and editing. Review the listed hardware needs for each. Most options include categories like "minimal," "recommended," and "best." Avoid minimal choices and aim for the highest quality available. What is your budget?

Based on what I've learned, mainly using OBS and Adobe Audition along with running games. My present budget is around 1.5k, but if possible I'm open to swapping useful components from my old setup into the new one. I'm also wondering if upgrading the motherboard or switching to an SSD-based format might be a better choice right now.

You can utilize Nvidia's encoder to capture through OBS. A $3k investment is sufficient for a completely new setup, remember that Intel, AMD, and Nvidia are all introducing new models this year. If you prefer not to wait, there are still viable upgrade choices available on your existing system.

I genuinely think it's best to start with an SSD and perform a full wipe plus OS installation before deciding on further upgrades. This way, you address potential issues early, avoid unnecessary bloat, and keep your PC running efficiently without wasting resources. If you still decide to upgrade, an SSD will complement both your new and existing systems effectively.
