Hi,
My current PC is 9 years old now, I have upgraded it over time, but it's got to the point where the CPU can't keep up anymore. I'm looking to buy a new PC, but move some of the newer components over from the old PC, mainly the RTX2060 and a 500GB M.2 drive to use as the boot drive (the hdd will probably come over too, just for storage space).
This PC will mainly be used for gaming, struggling to run Starfield being the main reason I've decided to upgrade now.
My current monitor is 1080p 165Hz, but my plan for this computer is to buy a 4070 (or next gen, 5070??/AMD equivalent) in 2-3 years time and upgrade my monitor to something like 4k 120Hz.
My budget is around £800-£1,000.
I'm unsure about too many things to put together an initial build, mainly whether I should go Intel or AMD for the CPU and whether I go for DDR4 or DDR5 RAM.
I'm looking for suggestions as I'm a bit out of the loop these days.
Thanks
