LONG POST INCOMING.
It's been more than 1 week since my new PC arrived, and i've been testing it in different variations of games and some projects from FL Studio.
And i can say: i have never felt that kind of smoothness anywhere with my old PC's
I promised to drop my new PC's specs, so here they are:
CPU: Intel Core i5-12400F
GPU: Geforce RTX 3050 (8GB)
RAM: 16GB
SSD: 1TB + 2TB from my new HDD (which is not connected directly into the motherboard)
Also, i was forced to adapt to Windows 11, which was pre-installed here (spent only 1 year with 10, goddammit)
I tested this PC with the games with max settings such as Genshin Impact (obviously) and completely new game for me - DOOM Eternal. Both - clear and stable 60 FPS. And i will not stop on them, i plan to try everything i never had a chance to try or play.
As for FL Studio, i tested out on one of my most overloaded projects i've had so far - the trailer soundtrack for Dark Deception: Backrooms...
And the load was around 50%, which did surprised me. The project has contained a lot... i mean, A LOT of Kontakts open (not mentioning the mix plugins). My old PC, ofc, wasn't able to withstand it properly. Even the developer (friend also), who coordinated my actions with the soundtrack, saw my suffering.

So, the final verdict - i was devastated and scared that i might have lost everything i stored on my old PC, but my fears did fade away now.
I'm really-really satisfied with the performance (ofc, i spent around 7 years of suffering) and can't wait to come back to the flow of music production. I have huge plans for this one.
Also, i'm leaving the photo of my old PC. Thank you for your service (although it was painful).
