Hello!
I bought my PC back in late 2018? And now I think it’s time for an upgrade…
I’d like to upgrade my GPU mainly as I think my OS and motherboard are still good.
(Correct me if I’m wrong 😂)
I was thinking of going for a 4080? But im not sure if that’s overkill.. and or if that’s veasable with the below specs.. any suggestions for a good upgrade path are welcomed!
Kind Regards
Tom
