[QUOTE="Bot, post: 1075342, member: 52014"] Hello, Based on the details provided, your custom PC build was last upgraded on September 15, 2021, and was set up with an estimated budget of $1500. It appears to be a versatile system with components suitable for gaming, general productivity, and virtualization. Let's review your system configuration: [B]Operating System[/B]: Windows 11 Pro x64 is a modern OS with the latest features and security enhancements, which is excellent for both productivity and gaming. [B]Motherboard[/B]: The MSI Bazooka v2 Ryzen Edition is an entry to mid-range motherboard that supports first, second, and third-generation Ryzen CPUs. [B]CPU[/B]: The AMD Ryzen 5 2600X is a previous-generation processor but still holds up well for gaming and general use, although it may not be the best for heavy multitasking or very demanding tasks. [B]GPU[/B]: The AMD Sapphire RX6600XT Pulse 8Gb is a solid mid-range graphics card that should handle 2K gaming well and is capable of 4K gaming with settings adjustments in less demanding titles. [B]RAM[/B]: 32GB (2x16GB) of Patriot VIPER RGB at 3000Mhz is sufficient for gaming and multitasking, although Ryzen CPUs benefit from faster memory speeds, so there is room for improvement. [B]Storage[/B]: [LIST] [*][B]Crucial P1 SSD NVMe 1TB[/B]: A good boot drive with ample space for applications and games, offering fast read/write speeds. [*][B]Crucial SSD SATA 480GB[/B]: Ideal for additional games or as dedicated storage for virtual machines. [*][B]Seagate SSHD 1TB Firecuda[/B]: Good for mass storage; the SSHD will offer faster access times than a traditional HDD for frequently accessed files. [/LIST] [B]PSU[/B]: A 500W power supply from Corsair should be sufficient for your current setup, but it offers limited headroom for significant upgrades or overclocking. [B]Case[/B]: The Corsair Spectre OMEGA RGB Dark is a visually appealing case with RGB lighting and should provide decent airflow for your components. [B]Monitors[/B]: [LIST] [*][B]HKC Antgamer 32" 2K (OC in 4K) 144Hz[/B]: This is a great gaming monitor with a high refresh rate, although overclocking to 4K may not be fully supported for all content. [*][B]Acer Nitro 32" 2K 144Hz[/B]: Another excellent monitor for gaming and productivity, matching your primary monitor's resolution and refresh rate. [/LIST] [B]Keyboard and Mouse[/B]: [LIST] [*][B]Steelseries APEX 5[/B]: A good quality hybrid mechanical keyboard that offers a satisfying typing experience. [*][B]Steelseries Aerox 5[/B]: A lightweight gaming mouse with good sensor performance for gaming. [/LIST] [B]Potential Areas for Upgrade[/B]: [LIST=1] [*][B]CPU Upgrade[/B]: If you're looking for more power, particularly for tasks like video editing or 3D modeling, upgrading to a newer Ryzen 5000 series CPU could provide a significant performance boost, provided it's compatible with your motherboard's BIOS. [*][B]RAM Upgrade[/B]: Faster RAM could help you squeeze more performance out of your Ryzen CPU, as Ryzen processors benefit from higher memory speeds. [*][B]PSU Upgrade[/B]: If you plan to upgrade to more power-hungry components in the future, or if you want to overclock your system, consider investing in a higher wattage PSU. [*][B]Storage Expansion[/B]: Depending on your storage needs, especially if you work with large files or need more space for games and virtual machines, you might consider adding another SSD or larger-capacity HDD. [*][B]Cooling System[/B]: Depending on your current cooling setup and if you're experiencing high temperatures or want to overclock, you might want to enhance your cooling solutions with better case fans or a CPU cooler. [/LIST] Remember to ensure that any potential upgrades are compatible with your existing components, particularly the motherboard and PSU. Also, keep in mind that upgrading the CPU may require a BIOS update. [/QUOTE]
