should i upgrade my PC?

In my humble opinion. Id recommend you either a 7995WX if you're into productivity because it's a business class gpu that ain't that much optimised for gaming or a 9950X3D wich is more gaming focused. Intel rn's kinda ass. I'd wait for their new gen. For the gpu. Don't get a 5090. If you want THE gpu. Get a RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell. It's the even better 5090 using a the full gpu chip (the 5090 is a nerfed and weaker variant of the pro 6000) pair this gpu with one of the two cpu's i've mentioned with a board that fits the largest amount of ddr5 Vram and you're good to go.

The pro 6000 blackwell is like 12k
And the 7995WX around 10K
With the remaining funds. You can get your board, storage, ram and stuff. For around 25k ish(i didn't do the precise math
Or the 9950X3D is around 1k
I hope i could help you a bit. It's up to you at the end of the day. But that's pretty much what i would go for if i was you.

 

That's not a realistic upgrade for anyone.
Yes a 5090 isn't needed.........in fact anything RTX 3090 and up in performance is enough GPU horsepower to run Beam at max settings at 4K. My 5070Ti can run any map ultra settings and everything maxed out without going below 60fps.

a 7995WX is a stupid recommendation because people just can't admit that intel ISN"T ass right now. In fact their arrow lake CPU's are the best CPU's to use for beam because:
1. The fastest single thread performance in a consumer CPU
2. The Hybrid architecture with E-cores is fully exploited in Beam allowing for superior frame rates when lots of AI cars are spawned.

Single thread performance is king, having a ton of cores doesn't do anything if they aren't fast enough.

Arrow lake has the quickest single thread performance, and its even more interesting how the lowest end arrow lake CPU has better single thread performance than the 7995WX you linked.



It would be a complete waste of money to buy any type of threadripper or epyc CPU for Beam.

Even intel's lowest end Arrow Lake CPU (10 cores 10 threads) is better than a 16 core AMD X3D chip........because superior single thread performance

 

I want you to try 9950X3D not laptop 7945HX3D
You looks like have lot of money to buy cpu, then buy just one 9950X3D you will find out why ppl calling intel 15 gen ass
but yea 5090 is don't needed I agree with that
