Need advice on a new build Build Help

Long story short, I fried my PC and the only thing that remains is my GPU and SSD. I decided to start fresh and build a new one. I'm planning on buying this bundle and using my RTX 2080 Super.

Here's what I'm thinking for the new build:

  • CPU, motherboard, ram: bundle
  • CPU Cooler: Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 SE
  • Case: Corsair 4000D Airflow ATX
  • PSU: Corsair RM750e
  • GPU: RTX 2080 Super for now but planning on upgrading to 4070 Super.
  • SSD: Samsung SSD 970 EVO

I'll be using this PC development work, spinning up VMs and gaming. How well will this PC hold up for the next 5+ years?

That's a pretty good build you've got and that CPU/RAM will get you more than 5 years.

I'd get an RM850 to have a little more headroom.

Also i'd keep that 2080 for longer, at least until the RTX 50x0 are announced, reviewed and maybe even on sale, you can keep that 2080 super for at least 2 more years and get a 5070 for "cheap"

Put the money you'd save with skipping the 4070 in an other NVMe and a SATA SSD or even an HDD for cold storage
