We reached the milestone and it was just the nudge I needed to finally invest in a new gaming rig that will hopefully last a long time.
The new PC "Spaghetti Monster" is now ordered and it should be delivered within a week or so. I will probably spend time between Xmas and New Year to really set it up. The intention is to run all video editing and streaming from my current/old PC so the new gaming PC is purely for gaming.
"Spaghetti Monster" specs:
- Intel Core i7-8700K Processor
- Corsair hydro Series H115i CPU cooler
- Fractal Design Define C Temp G
- EVGA GQ 750W Hybrid Modular 80+ PSU
- MSI Z370 Tomahawk, Socket-1151
- Corsair Vengeance LED DDR4 2666MHz 32GB
- Asus GeForce GTX 1080 Ti ROG Strix Gaming
- Samsung PM961 SSD 1TB M.2 NVMe
- Seagate Barracuda 4TB 3.5" HDD
