I want to build a new computer, but I have no idea how values or levels of benchmarks would really apply to computer parts.
So my question would be, for a moderate gamer (I want to play all the recent games, but I don't need them set at high settings)
1. Should I buy high end computer parts geared towards gaming and hope they last me a couple years more than how long they would last an enthusiast gamer?
or
2. Should I buy "good enough" gaming parts and replace them periodically?
Also which parts should I really invest in if I want to upgrade down the line? (PSU, MoBo, GPU, CPU, etc.)
Any help would be appreciated.
