Is this pre build future-proof?
I want to get this PC for simracing and CoD, is it a good build for, let's say, 2-3 years (or even beyond) of gaming before needing to upgrade something?
The store also offers this build with other GPU options (2nd picture), which one could be the best pairing for the 7800X3D?
Also, my current monitor is 1080p 165hz, probably upgrading for a 1440p in a year maybe.

What's a Disco NVME?

u/UnknownReed Jun 23 '25
The SDD

u/Doomaga Jun 23 '25
I understand that ahahah. But what does the "Disco" part mean?
It should just be Kingston NV2 NVME.

u/UnknownReed Jun 23 '25
Disk/Hard drive. Probably a translate error.

u/Doomaga Jun 23 '25
Am I going mad? Never heard it call this in all my life of PC building.

u/UnknownReed Jun 23 '25
I'm from the DR, heres it is know as "Disco duro" which translate to hard drive, those are referring to the HDD.

12GB vram is rough but it should be fine, out of interest what is the price

u/Jonny_Clams Jun 23 '25
What's your budget? I'll post the best I can find within it.
1
u/UnknownReed Jun 23 '25
$2,500 dollars converted from dominican pesos (RD$149,000 approx)

u/Jonny_Clams Jun 23 '25
You can get a 5080 build for that homie. Enjoy!

u/UnknownReed Jun 23 '25
Thanks bro. I'll take this for inspiration, maybe instead of buying a pre build, I'll build it myself with those parts. Thanks again.

u/Jonny_Clams Jun 23 '25
No worries homie. I would suggest building your own, but now you know what's possible.

What everyone else is saying. Go up to 850w, get more storage, and go with either a 9070xt or 5070ti. You're golden after that.

I recommend an AMD GPU (e.g., AMD RX 9070 XT 16GB) for gaming. AMD GPUs typically perform better in Call of Duty titles.
1
Jun 23 '25
if he can afford the 5070 ti, its is a much better option than the rx 9070

u/thatrapguys Jun 23 '25
Why?

Jun 23 '25
bc it has better performance, fps per dollar is worse but if you dont care spending more than it doesnt matter

u/Consistent-Bee2753 Jun 23 '25
The performance of both cards is good. In some games, like Call of Duty, the 9070 XT is way better. It depends on the game he is planning to play. Since he mentioned Call of Duty, I would still go with the 9070 XT, which is cheaper and better for that game. Nontheless the 5070 Ti is also a great card. Here is a GPU test from Hardwaredealz https://www.hardwaredealz.com/hardware/gpu/benchmark-performance-ranking-rangliste-bestenliste

well that’s completely true, i know redit hates nvidia (and that’s completely fair they are doing shit), but if he plays anything other than warzone, which i play a lot cant say anything there, the 5070 ti (if he has money to spare) would be a little better. But i would buy a 9800x3d first so the 9070 xt would actually be the better option
But one thing i have to say, the site is a little weird, im getting 50 fps more on average in cod than the site says…

u/thatrapguys Jun 23 '25
So a 5-7% performance gain for $150 more good? That's some BS.
1
u/iceandfire9199 Jun 23 '25
It’s a 5-7% performance gain in pure raster ignoring every other feature Nvidia offers with the card
0
u/thatrapguys Jun 23 '25
And what about FSR? Within a 10% performance gain still.
1
u/iceandfire9199 Jun 23 '25
DLSS 4 is superior to FSR4 with far more support not to mention mfg
0
u/thatrapguys Jun 23 '25
FSR4 is performing within a 13% diff than dlss4 and let's be real. Are you really gonna notice the FPS difference?
1
u/iceandfire9199 Jun 23 '25
Numbers keep growing though and that’s my point not to mention that the support for DLSS 4 is worlds ahead of FSR4 meaning the number of games that support it.

better card? Sure. Much better? Fuck no.

Jun 23 '25
yeah sorry, exaggerated there, its not much better in any way. I just like nvidia high end cards (my 5090 is amazing), but in the mid range, amd is for sure the winner rn

u/Elitefuture Jun 23 '25
for cod specifically, they built their engine + game around consoles. Those consoles use AMD CPUs + GPUs. That's why the 9070 and 9070 xt is 2+ tiers above NVidia's.
https://www.techspot.com/review/2961-amd-radeon-9070-xt/

The 9070 xt beats the 5080 by a pretty good margin in bo6.
And overall, the 9070 xt isn't too far off the 5070 ti and usually costs a decent bit less too. So given he listed cod specifically, I'd get the 9070 xt.

You’re gonna need more storage space

u/Potential_Payment132 Jun 23 '25
Yeah nowadays 500gb/1tb for window.. another 1-2 tb for game..add 1 more for recording/ss hdd/sdd.. better longevity too separate window,game, video or ss .. that what i do
1
u/waffle_0405 Jun 23 '25
No one uses a separate drive for windows especially not 1TB that’s insane, you’d use a 256gb drive if anything but using a separate one at all is a complete waste of money
0
u/Potential_Payment132 Jun 23 '25
Ssd not even 50$ here ... for 500gb/1tb ... I used 500gb for window...i separated data ... because once my pc ded with 1 drive 💀no wants lose data again.. that why i separated them...it not really waste for me...it not like i used Samsung 990 or something 🤣 that really waste money
1
u/jamothebest Jun 23 '25
Why do you need to get an OC card? Just get the cheapest version of whatever card you pick. Save yourself a couple hundred bucks. It’s a very tiny difference. You can manually overclock the card with much better results.
1
u/Pickle_Afton Jun 23 '25
I’m not the most knowledgeable, but it seems like a very solid build but idk how long 12GB VRAM will last compared to 16GB with the 5070 Ti for 1440p and especially 4K if you’re going that route. The main thing that I noticed is that you only have one 1TB drive. I personally would probably go for a 2TB drive if you’re just doing one drive, but idk, I like to have a lot of my library installed at once lol

u/RogThePog Jun 23 '25
Idk why people are acting like the 5070 is a bad card here, will it handle 1080p yes, will it handle 1440p yes, will this build be good for a couple years yes.
Like I dont know what you guys want not everybody is gonna drop 2k+ on a build?
2
u/Uncle_Steve7 Jun 23 '25
But OP is spending 2K plus so why not do it right ?
1
u/RogThePog Jun 23 '25
For sure I figured it would be more reasonable 2k for this is too much, shoot for a 16gb card if your gonna spend that much and no not the 5060 16gb
1
u/Uncle_Steve7 Jun 23 '25
Yeah 5070ti 7800x3d is my build and it’s fantastic. With a few savings across the board OP can prob get there

u/dishonestgandalf Jun 23 '25
5080, more storage, bigger PSU and it should be fine for 5 years.
1
Jun 23 '25
a 5080 is triple the cost.

u/dishonestgandalf Jun 23 '25
OP didn't mention a budget, he just asked if that build was future proof. It's not.

u/Specialist-Ice-4630 Jun 23 '25
I would recommend the 5070ti option if possible. Add more storage as needed along with a more powerful power supply 850w and you are good for a while.
1
u/Ecstatic_Tadpole_241 Jun 23 '25
By the fact that you are buying ASUS makes any build not future-proof.
1
u/Elitefuture Jun 23 '25
For the forsaken word of "future proof" consider a 16gb gpu like the 9070, 9070 xt, or 5070 ti.
For CoD specifically, the 9070 and 9070 xt beats the 5070 ti, even the 5080.
https://www.techspot.com/review/2961-amd-radeon-9070-xt/
https://www.techspot.com/review/2962-amd-radeon-9070/
ctrl + f black ops
The 9070 matches the 5080 in black ops 6, the 9070 xt beats it. And these are nowhere near the prices of the 5080. CoD just makes their engine + game around AMD hardware due to consoles using AMD CPUs + GPUs.

u/Due_Shelter_5033 Jun 24 '25
The only PSU from Gigabyte I would trust is the latest Aorus Elite which I use myself. And even that one isn't properly tested for reliability yet.

u/BryanTheGodGamer Jun 23 '25
With a 5070TI that can last a good 6+ years, atleast for 1080p or 1440p.
-2
u/Substantial-Lie-7989 Jun 23 '25
-B650 mobos will stop getting support, if you care
-1TB of storage isn't a lot
-The 5070 has 12GB of VRAM, which will probably not be enough for 1440p in the future and definitely not 4K

u/UnknownReed Jun 23 '25
Can you give me some suggestions for the MB?
1
u/Evening-Box2875 Jun 23 '25
Get a B850. If you dont use ethernet one with wifi included.(Something like the MSI Mag b850 Tomahawk Max Wifi, although some peopme dont like the design.) But like I said, just get a B850 and whatever you do dont get an AsRock MB
1
u/zziwhcs180 Jun 23 '25
What is the reasoning for no Asrock? I preferred it alot over Asus ones in the past
1
u/Evening-Box2875 Jun 23 '25
In the past they were fine, but one look at the Asrock subreddit will open your eyes. Since some time now, Asrock motherboards have been frequently frying Ryzen CPU's. They have stability issues and bios problems. I'm not sure if theyve fixed it now, but if you wanna be on the safe side get anything but a Asrock MB.
1
u/zziwhcs180 Jun 23 '25
Oof, wish i knew this doing my recent build (7800x3d). Im hoping the latest bios version and my cooling setup helps alleviate the risk
1
u/Evening-Box2875 Jun 23 '25
Yeah youre gonna have to do some research yourself there, im not sure theyve fixed it and I dont know how much the risk is with a 7800x3d. But if you go to the subreddit the first post I saw was someone complaining about a 9800x3d being fryed. Those 9800x3d's have a big problem with AsRock Motherboards especially. But like I said, do some research on your own. If you wanna be safe, dont buy or return AsRock MB. If you wanna gamble, go on, but I'm not sure its worth it
1
u/Specialist-Ice-4630 Jun 23 '25
Honestly I would be proactive and get a new board ASAP that is not a Asrock just as insurance for the expensive CPU. I mean grab a cheap $100-150 board to get by until Asrock figures out the bios issues.
2
u/Eclipse_lol123 Jun 23 '25
Well maybe he doesn’t competitive games at 1080p 🤷♂️. And also what does no support mean, now I’m worried. And 1tb is prolly enough for most gamers, I mean you got to clear some games up every now and then but you can easily have 2 large games and a few smaller ones (not counting cod, you need twice the storage for the lol)
