This is mostly just for discussion, but this is my PC's current state. I do want to do a full custom watercooled setup sometime but I'm wondering if anything is screaming out "upgrade me, I'm old". I mostly game and do CAD design/3D printing. Some photoshop and After Effects work every now and then. What would you upgrade?

OOh, now there's an idea. I'm always looking for new things to play around with. Thanks!

I mean, if you want to future proof you could go with ddr5 ram but then you would need to change your motherboard and a bunch of other stuff I imagine.

To be clear you can probably already run some medium-sized models on 32GB using llama.cpp, as it's been optimized a ton in the past few months - but I know that early on some models were eating up 48GB of my RAM.
