Your PC is fine.
Just wait if you can find a cheap GPU upgrade within the next 2 years.
That GPU with 3GB of VRAM is NOT fine

op has already decided to wait till 2022 , rtx 5xxx will be worth it
4xxx series is for this year , no?Nvidia relases their GPUs every 2 years so 4xxx
4xxx series is for this year , no?
oh well , then he should wait for 5xxx series cuz i have a feeling the ray tracing performance will be much improved by then and will be the normNo, this year they are going to release 3060, 3050, 3070ti, 3080ti and "new" no mining V2 versions of current gpus.
Kind of silly to wait, apart from maybe waiting until the 3000 series goes back to normal prices.oh well , then he should wait for 5xxx series cuz i have a feeling the ray tracing performance will be much improved by then and will be the norm
1080pThat GPU with 3GB of VRAM is NOT fine
1080p
Its fine.
I have an overclocked 1070 with 8GB on 1440p
Just choose the settings accordingly.
You can do that on pc too.When port a game to a set hardware like a console. You can customise on whole other level. You are not just setting the settings for the game as a whole. But you can change the settings for a specific part of the game. For an example you can remove the transparencies in the fire cave that put to much of a burden on the system in the fire cave. But you can keep them in the rest of the game where they are not a problem.
whereas on pc you have to dial down it completely or suffer bad framerate in the cave. This is what good porting is.
I got my current PC around three years ago and I thinking of upgrading parts of it. I would like these upgrades to allow my to play the latest releases for the next three years or so. I don't need the latest releases to look the best they could possibly look - as long as the rig can comfortably play the games smoothly that is good enough for me. Here are my current specs -
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700K CPU @ 4.20GHz (8 CPUs), ~4.2GHz
Memory: 16384MB RAM
Available OS Memory: 16318MB RAM
Card name: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 3GB
Manufacturer: NVIDIA
Chip type: GeForce GTX 1060 3GB
DAC type: Integrated RAMDAC
Device Type: Full Device (POST)
Display Memory: 11146 MB
Dedicated Memory: 2988 MB
Shared Memory: 8158 MB
Current Mode: 1920 x 1080 (32 bit) (60Hz)
Any suggestions?
Edit- I am happy to play at 1080p 60 frames a second
God, you people are so full of shit it almost stinks to read.Technically, yes, you can. If you are willing to buy a whole new PC every six months
But yeah, basically a good PC is a WIP. If you want a static configuration, buy a console.
A 2070 will outperform an XSX/PS5.You can't. Thank me later.
Edit: On a more serious note, assuming your resolution stays the same, look at what current gen console hardware roughly equivalates to in the PC space. An RTX 3060 Ti should easily outperform a PS5/XSX in most scenarios. Your CPU is fine.
Is this a parody post or genuine delusion?The only card that will keep up with the consoles is the 3090.

32 is the new 16wats up with the 32 gb ram suggestions? i thought 16 gb is fine
Is it worth getting a PCIe 4 compatible motherboard you think? I'm wondering will we even see games utilize ssd's that fast in the next 4 or 5 years.NVME drive is a must going forward.
I would wait, just upgrade your MB later with the same socket as your current processor, or I'm sure you could get a MB/CPU combo in 4-5 years. Who knows what will be on the market.Is it worth getting a PCIe 4 compatible motherboard you think? I'm wondering will we even see games utilize ssd's that fast in the next 4 or 5 years.
32 is the new 16
It's not really games, I mean you will do fine with 16GB, but I do have a lot of shit running, and it consumes RAM, so I always get 32 minimum, it's mostly a personal preference. You can get 16GB and upgrade later if needed.What games eat more than 16GB of RAM?

Custom ultra low graphics. xD
For 1080p/60fps, no matter the graphics and loading times as OP want, there can be future proofing.Future proofing =/= PC gaming.
In like 2-3 years PCIe 5.0 will shit on all PCIe 4.0 HW.
I still doubt that an 7700k at 5Ghz will not be enough for 1080p/60fps for current gen games. Maybe some CPU killer games like Assassin's creed late gen could melt it.If he wants to keep up that spec for the next 2 years when the crossgen bullshit stops then he absolutely will need it. Unless he wants to play old games or play new games on a mix of low/medium.
You can do that on pc too.
Plus this "solution" in consoles doesn´t help when it´s not enough and the game still has poor performance (every game at 30 ou less fps). You can upgrade or turn down graphics settings on pc, while on console you can only cry.
Yeah, you're gonna need like 11.34 PB at LEAST for that.Well then 32GB is far far too little.
My multi multi million polygon CPU renders with cloth, softbody and fluid simulation will eat through that in no time.
tf is a PB?Yeah, you're gonna need like 11.34 PB at LEAST for that.
PetaByte. 1 PB = 1,024 TB = 1,048,576 GBtf is a PB?
might as well use my dated rig only for neogafPetaByte. 1 PB = 1,000,000 GB
