I'm thinking about purchasing a used PC that has been operational since 2022. I'm interested in whether this setup is capable of running games like Arma Reforger and Forza Horizon Motorsport smoothly. Additionally, will these specifications hold up well for gaming over the next 4 to 5 years? Here are the details of the build:
- NZXT H710 Matte Black Case
- ASUS TUF GAMING X570-PLUS Motherboard
- AMD Ryzen 7 5800X
- MSI Radeon RX 6800 XT GAMING X TRIO 16G
- Kingston HyperX Fury RGB 4x8GB 3200MHz RAM
- Cougar GEX850 Gold 850W Power Supply
- Intel 660P 2TB NVMe SSD
- ASUS External DVD Burner SDRW-08D2S-U LITE
- Arctic Liquid Freezer II - 240 Cooler
- Microsoft Windows 11 Pro
- Asetek Premium AM4 Retention Ring Kit

If you're after longevity, you might want to consider a newer LGA 1700 build. The Ryzen 5800X could struggle with some of the upcoming titles, so it's something to keep in mind.
This build should handle those games just fine. It all depends on your resolution settings, though. If you're planning on gaming at 1440p, you might want to consider upgrading the GPU or switching the RAM to a 2x16GB setup instead of 4x8GB. What's the price you're looking at?
Just a note, the Arctic Liquid Freezer II isn't made by Asetek, so I'm confused about why the retention ring is listed as such. You might want to double-check that part.
Overall, the build looks solid for its age. That said, it's hard to predict if the 5800X will keep up with future gaming demands for the next few years. Just a heads up, the Windows copy may be gray market or pirated, so be cautious about that.
