Gratz! That seems like you got really good timing to upgrade and then hold on for a bit :)

I intended 32 GB DDR4 2400 but got a Deal for 64 GB DDR 4 2100 for 10 Euro cheaper. The whole system was only 1k to built myself and the only Upgrades I got was a NVME and SSD over the years. I got really lucky to have a Mainboard from that era with an NVME and USBC slot.

But on the other Hand a AM4 Ryzen chipset would have been nice instead of the dark Age Intel Chipset without being able to Upgrade much…

Strangely enough even in 2017 the CPU was the Bottleneck for VR with strange micro stuttering in some games. But most played really well (Moss, Walking dead, Half Life Alyx, Holopoint, Beatsaber, Elite Dangerous etc.)

I got a good deal where it was cheaper than the 32gb I intended to have :D It’s DDR4 btw. So it might be worth the whole system soon (1000k for the whole computer in 2017)

It still works fine most of the time with a 1080p Monitor :)

Sad thing: It is even older from 2016…mixed up the dates. But it got me through around 5k hours of VR including Half Life Alyx.

I still haven’t upgraded my 2018 old system as the 1070 is still running fine for 1080p gaming :D

I switched two Months ago to Mint and have no issues with a 1070. Even G sync works :)
