2080 Ti build

[uberreggie]

I really want to build a new workstation/gaming rig and I'm willing to put a good amount of money into to get pretty much top of the line. My eyes are set on the MSI RTX 2080 Ti GAMING X TRIO card with an Intel core I9-9900k. The other parts I'm willing to get whatever fits best and what is most recommended but currently for the rest I'm looking at corsair's vengeance pro rgb 3000 mhz line of ram. I also had my eyes on corsair's crystal 570x case to get a crisp look at everything but that's just a preference. I currently have a build of what i think would work but again I'm very new to all this.

The AX 1500i is insane overkill to the highest degree, you definitely won't need it, but if you're spending money just to spend money then I guess it's fine?

 

Also, no point in stopping at 3000MHz, get yourself some higher clocked ram like 3600 for any workstation tasks that are bandwidth hungry.

 

Also, depending on what workstation tasks you are doing you may want an NVMe SSD.

Way more PSU than you truly need, any 650w unit will work get something like a RM650x

 

The motherboard is underwhelming too, go Aorus Pro at least.

... How many graphics cards are you powering? 1500W would power the 9900K + 4x RTX 2080Tis. It's completely unnecessary for your build and you'd be wasting your money. Go with a good quality 750W PSU (750W as that's typically when you get the extra PCIe & EPS12v cables). Something like a HX750i or AX860i would be a more suited choice.

With the Aorus pro atleast , is there anything better than the aorus pro or is that all i would need to complete it?

Most workstation tasks i would be doing is photo editing and some video editing here and there, also is there any 3600 Mhz ram you would recommend? Also the psu is just a filler got some helpful tips to just go with an 850w at most

Something flashy like G.Skill trident Z is something I quite like the look of, the brushed aluminum sides are great looking and the non RGB versions come with various colors. Alternatively, the vengeance kit you were looking at has higher speed versions as well.

I'll look around, thanks for the pointers

If you want a better MSI board (To match the gpu) then the Z390 Gaming Pro Carbon or AC version if you want wifi are good.
