I currently own a system with a:
Ryzen 7 5800x (cooled by a Noctua U12A CPU Cooler)
32GB DDR4-3200
GTX 1080 Ti
2TB PCI-E 4.0 NVMe SSD
250GB PCI-E 3.0 NVMe SSD
850W Power Supply
Fractal Meshify-C case
I use this system mainly for gaming. Two things I want to upgrade are the CPU and video card. However, depending on what I want to upgrade to, I might also need to replace my DDR4 with DDR5 and my motherboard. For the CPU, it will be either a 7700X, 7800X3D, 13700K, or 5800X3D. For the video card it will most likely the RTX 4080. For the RAM it will be 64GB DDR5-5200 or 5600 (I know I can get faster RAM but I want to stick with the officially supported speeds according to the respective CPUs) if I end up replacing my RAM. Of course the cheapest route out of this situation would be just to upgrade to a 5800X3D and a RTX 4080 and keep my motherboard and RAM and be done with it for a few years, however I don't mind spending more money, replacing my motherboard and RAM, if the performance difference is worth it and is within by budget. My budget is ~$4000 including sales tax for a new pre-built PC. Of course if I get a new pre-built PC I will have some hardware that comes with it being redundant as I don't need to replace my SSDs, power supply, and case (if the 4080 FE will fit inside my current case without extreme bending of the power adapter in order to close the case). However, basically the majority of the cost of a new pre-built PC with the specs I want come from that hardware I want to upgrade to. If I go for the 5800X3D now then I won't be waiting for the 7800X3D and skip it which I read in an article online that it will be released in April. So should I just buy a new pre-built PC or should I just upgrade to the parts I want even though it would be nearly equivalent to buying a new pre-built PC at that point unless I upgrade to the 5800X3D?
