So my wife has finally given in and said do w/e #Win :D

So given my current rig is ok for what I do for gaming/streaming I now want to get a feel for whats out there and biggest bang for my £s

Unfortunatly I know there has been alot of tech released since i built my current rig almost 3yrs ago and im basiclly at a loss as to what i want to put in it with so much now out there

That said il be honest, im an AMD fan so iv had my eyes on building a Ryzen rig. ANY help you wonderful people can give on parts and pricing per part would be gratefully appriciated

 

so first the math's

 Maximum spend of £2000 = $2500 = CAD$3400 (rough conversions from £)

 

Purpose = Gaming & streaming

 

Preferance of companys used

AMD Mobo + Cpu

EVGA GPU's

Corsair Ram

Kingston for SSD & HDD

Corsair PSU

No preferance on coolers

No Preferance on Chassis but with lots of space

Noctua cooling fans

No preferance on screens (will need 2)

No preferance on keyboard but need to be able to macro/hot key stuff.

No Preferance on mouse

 

Ideal build

 

Amd Mobo + Cpu

Best cooler + chassis for the appropriate mobo/cpu

EVGA minimum 8gb ram (possibly 2 cards)

16-32gb corsair ram

Minimum 480gb SSD main drive

Corsair PSU (preferably 1000w so can add to Rig later without needing new PSU)

2TB HDD x2

Noctua fans im looking for low noise

2x screens 21 or 22inches in size

Keyboard (im used to feeling the buttons)

Mouse (minimum 2400 dpi and must have at least 2 buttons on the left side as i use these for something specific)
