Hey everyone! I'm planning to upgrade my gaming PC to get ready for BF 6. My setup is about five years old and I'm not sure if I should upgrade some parts or if it's time to consider a whole new build. I'm also in the market for a new gaming monitor, and I want to make sure my hardware can fully support it since my current monitors are around ten years old. Here are my specs:
- Motherboard: ASUS ROG Strix B550-F Gaming (WiFi 6) AMD AM4
- RAM: 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR4 3200
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3800XT
- Storage: Intel 660p Series M.2 1TB PCIe NVMe 3.0
- GPU: EVGA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER BLACK GAMING
- Power Supply: CORSAIR RMx Series RM750x
I'm looking to game in at least 1440p or ideally 4k. Any advice on what to upgrade or consider would be greatly appreciated!

For 1080p gaming, I’d recommend grabbing a Ryzen 7 5700X3D and at least a 5060 Ti with 16GB. If you’re leaning toward AM5 for future-proofing, just know it’ll be pricier since you'll need a new motherboard and RAM too. You could also check out bundle deals at Micro Center to save some cash!
So if I got that 5700X3D and paired it with a 5070 Ti, would that be a wise investment? I’m thinking about waiting for AM6 for a complete rebuild later.
