I would avoid building a PC right now, but if you can’t, here’s our best advice.

    I was on an Intel 7700k. With Windows 10 coming to an end this year my choices were:

    A) switch to gaming on Linux B) build a new pc

    Given its age I picked b), getting it in January this year. 9800x3d, 32GB ram. It’s been 11 months and no regrets.

    (I could have gone c) and built a new computer AND switched to Linux, but I often play non steam games and didn’t want to deal with WINE myself)

      Lutris is wonderful, they have many scripts to assist in game installs, for when you decide you are ready to take the plunge
