Does This PC Build Look Good for Long-Term Use?
Asked by

Hey everyone! I'm thinking about upgrading my current setup, which is an RX590 and a Ryzen 2700x from 2019. It's been struggling lately, lagging even with simple tasks like browsing Facebook, and I can only play League of Legends. I have a connection at a PC repair store who can get me the parts without tax, so it would cost around 4k instead of 5k in Europe. Here's what I'm looking at for a new build that I hope will last 8-10 years:
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D
- GPU: ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 5080 16GB GDDR7
- Motherboard: ASUS TUF Gaming X870-PLUS WIFI
- RAM: 64GB (2x32GB) DDR5 6000MHz CL30 AMD EXPO (like G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo)
- Primary SSD: 2TB Samsung 990 Pro NVMe PCIe 4.0
- Secondary SSD: 2TB Samsung 990 Pro NVMe PCIe 4.0
- CPU Cooler: ASUS ROG Ryujin III 360 ARGB 360mm AIO
- Power Supply: ASUS TUF Gaming 1200W Platinum
- Case: Fractal Design North XL (Charcoal)
What do you think? Will this setup serve me well in the long run?

Looks like a solid plan! Your current issues might stem from needing a cleanup rather than an upgrade. But if you’re making a big investment, this new build will certainly future-proof you for at least a decade.
