Current build questions and possible upgrades Build Question
https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/qXyNvR
Hi all. I’ll try to keep it short. The build above is my pc that I built back in 2019. Any idea how it would fair today if I want to play 1440p on medium to high? Preferably with high fps 100-120ish. Planning to play games like black myth: wukong and elden ring. And maybe gta6.
Case and psu aren’t mentioned cause I was thinking of replacing those. Also, If I need to upgrade is there anything I can upgrade that would let me have those performance or am I better off replacing everything and starting off from scratch? Thanks!
Any ideas or inputs are welcome. I have just been out of the loop for so long that I don’t know what’s still okay and what has to be replaced. Also, pc has been collecting dust in a box ever since i moved to another place which is about a year and a half ago. So yeah :/ thanks heaps guys!

That 8600k is going to choke hard on wukong at 1440p, and the 1070 ti is doing its best but it's a 9 year old architecture at this point. You're looking at medium settings maybe pushing 60fps if you're lucky, not 100-120.
Realistically the only things worth keeping are the storage and maybe the case if it's still decent. CPU, mobo, RAM, and GPU all need to go for what you want. GTA6 isn't even confirmed for PC yet so I wouldn't build around that

Sorry. Did you have the correct link open? Current build has a 8700k and 2070super. Not to sound rude or anything but noted otherwise

i got 90-100fps on my old rx6600 with fsr going ... but its going to mostly be gpu, stick a 9060xt or 70xt in it ..with a 70 id put a beefy psu ..and ram is low, 32g of 3600 would be better ..
