Hello,

 

If you get a 9700k you need a Z370 bios updated or a Z390 to be able to overclock it, otherwise get a 9700 non k. You'll still need a B365 to work out of the box though otherwise as stated above, you need a bios update.

if you are building new, then id suggest doing quite a few changes. including CPU, GPU, SSD and cooler. depending on the workload offcourse.

about 1800$ lower if possible and im actually doing a lot of stuff.

Mainly gaming in 1440p. but i also do video editing, game development in unity.

my requirements is that in games i want as close to 144fps as possible because my monitor is 144 and in video editing i want it to be a good experients

I'd get a z390 board...doesn't have to be a super expensive model...like z390 pro4 i think ?  It's basically a z370 with the bios up to date, but will squeeze all the juice out of a 9700k.  

 

EDIT:  That said updating bios isn't horrible...I did mine over the weekend...and by updating I mean I downgraded to an older version to squeeze more juice out of a 8700k.  Turns out newer bios often contain patches to enable more tech at the expense of performance :(

you can drop the cooler to save some cash there. overkill CPU to cover anything you would ever want to do.

Which is why it's always very helpful to include both your location and use case - next time!

What's your budget in kronen?

Awesome, thank you. Another question: I saw that a lot of stuff suggested on PCPartPicker would be ordered and shipped from Newegg (US) - wouldn't it be cheaper to order from Germany? Is that a possibility for you?

I would really like it to be from danish sites just because of security reasons, if something goes wrong i would trust companies i know a lot more if u get me ;)

Depends on the motherboard.  If you have UEFI then you don't need a CPU to update bios...someone correct me if I'm wrong please.

If the Bios doesnt reqognise the CPU, then it wont boot. 

 

Bios flashback allows you to update the Bios without a CPU. 

 

Bios flashback is not UEFI.

Here's the best I can do. I found the 3700X for 2477kr here at komplett.dk
Some parts are from Alternate, it's just way cheaper. Especially if you consider that the shipping fee is added for every single item - you will however only have to pay once if you order in bulk. So instead of 345kr shipping fees yoU'll only pay 69kr.

 

That makes a total of 11922kr (instead of the below mentioned 12198) - and you get a 3700X, 2080 Super, 1TB SSD, 16GB Ram
