This setup works well for high-performance games such as BoO3 and above, especially those demanding fast frame rates.

Intel i7-11-700k Corsair vengeance LPX with 32gb RAM, 2x16GB SSD, Samsung 970 Evo plus an extra 1TB SSD, ASUS ROG Strix Z590 E-gaming graphics card with Wi-Fi, Corsair RM750X 750W power supply, Cooler Master Hyper 212 Black Edition, and a GeForce RTX 2080 Super.
BO3 has been around a while, and you should be able to reach around 100 FPS with this configuration. I think I was consistently hitting 100 at 1080p using my standard GTX1080 back then. Even in more recent competitive titles, I’d expect solid performance from you.
I spotted this rig on the marketplace for $500. The seller mentioned he originally built it for around $3k—definitely a big investment, though it doesn’t seem unreasonable. I’m upgrading my current setup: 10th gen i7, Dell G5 5000 motherboard, 16GB DDR4, 650W power supply, and an RTX 3050.
Fits well with the era of price increases—probably better than before. Keep an eye on your temps with HWMonitor; the thermal paste might need a refresh now. The Cooler Master 212 works, but it isn’t perfect for the 11700K, so consider swapping it out based on performance.
Sure, I’ll explore a promising upgrade route unless you have any better ideas. And yes, I’ll replace the cooler with a more efficient one and fit it into a larger case I found.
