I’ll provide a list of existing parts, comparing old and new items, and I’d like you to assess whether this configuration is suitable for 1080p gaming at 60 frames per second with maximum settings, assuming shadows can be reduced and anti-aliasing settings adjusted.
My current setup includes: an older, budget-friendly MSI motherboard; a Gigabyte Z370 HD3; a FX8320 processor; and an R9 390 graphics card, with plans to upgrade to an RTX 2070 next year. My existing memory is 2x4GB of HyperX DDR3, and I intend to replace it with 2x8GB of G.Skill Aegis 3000MHz DDR4. I’m currently using a Fortron Hyper 700W power supply, and am considering whether to upgrade it. My hard drives and SSDs are remaining the same.
The estimated cost for the motherboard, CPU, RAM, and power supply is approximately $800, considering that electronics are generally more expensive in Europe.
The R9 390 remains a dependable 1080p graphics card, and if the RTX 2070 is unaffordable, the Navi option represents a viable alternative.
I don’t know if I should replace my power supply unit, although I could save $150.
Next year, 2070 is anticipated to arrive. Currently, I'm utilizing a 2017 Radeon RX 390 Sapphire tri-X, which I acquired last year following the failure of my previous PC’s 610W Seasonic power supply after a decade. Over the past year, I’ve experienced no issues with it. My concern is whether it might damage my processor or other components, though this outcome is improbable. I intend to refrain from overclocking until I obtain a new Seasonic power supply and a more advanced graphics card.
The Radeon RX 390 remains a dependable 1080p graphics card, and if the RTX 2070 is unaffordable, the Navi option can be considered.
WildCard999:
The Radeon RX 390 remains a respectable 1080p graphics card, and if the GeForce RTX 2070 is too expensive, the Navi option remains a viable alternative.
However, this new AMD product isn't likely to appear quickly. Based on the information I’ve gathered, AMD probably won’t unveil the Ryzen 3000 series or Navi during CES, and even after that announcement, it will take another couple of months before these products are actually available for purchase. Nevertheless, if the original poster intends to buy in a year’s time, it won’t be a significant concern, as Navi will most likely be revealed at Computex regardless of its CES debut.
I haven't yet learned to properly cite sources, but yes, this year’s finances were tight. However, acquiring a 2070 next year will be a worthwhile investment, offering solid performance for approximately five years at 1080p with 60 frames per second on maximum settings in a wide range of games – excluding inferior early access titles.
I’m still unfamiliar with quoting, but yes, this year’s finances are strained.
