Yeah the only issue I'm seeing is 84% good. I would just replace the hard drive all together and go for an SSD. I did that not too long ago and the purchase was worth it. I only paid £16 for a 250GB NVME M2 SSD.

@Seldom Bucket : I have a bunch of things to do in Durban and surrounds with my kids over new years, but do you have a suggestion for fireworks? I understand the illegality of private fireworks and the kak they cause for domestic animals etc... but.. my kids have never seen a fireworks show.

PCIe 3 vs 4. So more future proof. Though admittedly whenever I buy something with future proofing in mind seldomly do I take up the option. In this case though latest GPUs can make use of it. I have a 2080 which is still fine on PCIe 3.

Hopefully you will be able to replace the 2080 with something to your liking when it no longer serves your needs.

I'm going to go with 12th gen. Intel. Outperforms Ryzen in their price brackets in pretty much everything other than file compression/decompression. ASUS B760 motherboard
