My D40 is now obsolete

Just after 107 days since its launching, Nikon D40 is now being replaced by Nikon D40x. Wow, I'm stunned! It's a pretty quick model replacement! In fact, I'm still learning how to use all its features... Also, Nikon released a new 55-200 VR lens! Now, I'm a bit mad because I have the old 55-200 now...

I can hear now the groanings of D40 users out there...

Well, it's "buy now or never"...

The new game, Starfield , is the first game that crashes my PC all the time. It seemed to suck out all 850W of my PC's PSU.  Well, Starfield is still buggy and un-optimised but as my RTX 4090 is recommended to have a 1000W PSU, I got the itch and upgraded PSU to  be quiet! PURE POWER 12 M 1200W . Installation was a breeze. I run 3DMark again and here's the latest score so connections seem to be all good (eg no unintentional cable disconnection): Hopefully, no more crashes when playing with Starfield in ultra settings.
