How long will it last?

Actually I was just going to say I completely agree with a small SSD, as you need it only for programs and the OS, since games won't run faster, they will just load faster (which is a useless feature if you play online games). And yeah the GPU will be your only bottleneck in 2 years, and even then it should actually still work well at 1080p. Your one option would be going for a better motherboard and a bigger PSU and adding a second r9 390 when prices drop, but personally I am against that. Just run with the r9 390 for 2-3 years, sell it second hand and get a new high end GPU, the CPU will still be plenty by that time.

And all it would be is a GPU upgrade? Right? Or should i just slap another r9 390 in there ?

PS. Don't worry about the SSD that's just for the OS. I'll get a bigger one for games soonish.
