So, the time has come to upgrade my i7 4790k and GTX 760.

I’m looking at getting the following, but I’m stuck on what graphics card to get (this is something I am happy to replace in a couple of years, if I was to get something like the 4060)

PC specs that I have landed on.

  • AMD 7800X3D
  • 32gb of DDR5 6000Mhz CL36 rammy boys
  • Gigabyte B650 ATX motherboard
  • Noctua 140mm CPU cooler

I am carrying over the following from my old PC

  • Case (Fractal Disign Pop)
  • SSD storage
  • EVGA 850w gold PSU

I am having difficulty picking a graphics card, I’m looking at the 4060, is there anything as good as from team Red that I could consider? I do plan on upgrading in a couple of years time.

    Take it from me: buy 2nd hand, especially noctua coolers, their older ones are a quarter of the price 2nd hand, yet still offer adequate cooling.

    Also, just generally go AMD or Nvidia rtx 3000 for graphics, again 2nd hand of you’re comfortable with it.

    What I’m trying to say is: don’t overspend on brand new hardware, spent more on a good power supply and a good ssd
