New build need help

[cs117x]

Hello, I’m looking to build my own PC soon with about £1000-1100 ($1276-$1400), now I’m fairly new to this but would prefer to build it myself and not pay the premium for using a website like pcspecialist, i’m not looking for any particular brand AMD or Intel just really the best performance I can buy for the money, as well as also water cooling (because come on, why not?) 

 

Location: UK

Aim: Gaming

Monitors: 1

Peripherals: Corsair K95, Razer Naga Hex V2 (will need Windows)

Why I’m Upgrading: simply for the better performance and long-term value, currently I’m using a laptop that’s started to die a bit (Dell 15 7000) and it’s a discontinued model

 

Thanks for your help and attention it’s greatly appreciated.

The 2700 is more expensive in the UK, and hey why not get a good X470 board? I'd rather get a high-quality X470 board and a 1700 than a B450 board and a 2700

1TB isn't low unless you have a lot of files

Unless you have a massive steam library, 1TB is definitely enough.

It's not like he's putting 7 copies of XPlane (100+ GB) on his HDD lmao

You'll be stuck at 60hz 1080p with your current monitor while getting a 144hz monitor will make your gameplay much smoother.

Oh yes ofc thanks
