[size=4]I’m in a dilemma, to buy now or hold off first?
Should I go with the purchase this month, and if so, what’s the recommended specs that can last me for another 10-year-plus period?
Good enough for max 1080p or solid 1440p gaming, while most of them are for general computing usage & watching/streaming >1440p video.
Budget-wise, let’s say about ~RM6-7k? Previously, my rig was bought at RM2k.
Crazy seeing the current price differences now. [/font]
Now isnt really a good time to buy (when has it ever been really?) but looking at how old your PC is, coming to 15 yo, its time to replace moreso when WIN11 isnt supported and your system is failing.Should I go with the purchase this month, and if so, what’s the recommended specs that can last me for another 10-year-plus period?

Can try the other parts:
7500F
MSI B650/B850 Gaming PLUS Wifi
Cooler, PA120/ SE or Frozn 620 whichever you can get cheaper
Any RTX 5070/ RX 9070 (nonXT)
WD 850X/ Sammie 990pro 1TB (ideally 2TB but these prices going up too!)
Any decent airflow case ie Corsair 4000D or Techware Nexus Air or Montech Air 1000
RAM is the big question, grab any 2x16GB 6000MHZ CL32 or below if you can afford it into your budget. Otherwise I would reco super budget method of getting used 16GB pisspoor valueRAM DDR5 at the lowest price and hang on to it until RAM prices stabilise in a year or 2, then replace it with 6000MHZ CL30 dual RAM kits.
