I that’s part of it… The 9700K is like 7 years old at this point, and I’m all for holding off updates if it does what you want, but eventually you’ll have to if you want to actually take advantage of that 4080
Well aware of that, but no game has ever had issues with it so far, so…
And I even run it without any OC, because it handles everything I throw at it juust fine.
Edit: plus, to be honest… if things keep going the way they’re going, I can see a clear cut-off point for me around gaming… Very few new games I’d actually want to play, and I own every game I’ve ever enjoyed playing.
Edit 2: as an example, I can run Cyberpunk 2077 with everything cranked up to 11 and my system’s actually chillin’.
