[SHiFT]

Budget (including currency): 3000GBP or so

Country: UK

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: AAA gaming

 

Hey y'all.

 

I had a nice system custom made with you guys around 5-6 years ago. Works fine to this date, I just started a new job and wish to upgrade to get up to speed again for the next 3-4-5 years!

 

I am thinking of a high-end system with Ryzen and either the new NVIDIA series or the new AMD series later this year.

 

I seen this build and I really loved it. Anyone would be able to say how much this would cost through OCUK - built for me?

 

I am thinkinf of a build of this type for the PC. I really love the white and black vibe!

do you need this build urgently?

with this budget, i would strongly suggest waiting for zen3, ampere and big navi in just a few months.

Nope, I am OK to wait until those are released.

 

Just so I get up to date.. ZEN3 is a new line of AMD Ryzen CPUs? 

 

I am "splashing out" as I want to make a system again that will ask for nothing for 3-4 years and will demolish everything at 1440P very high / ultra gaming.  I'd rather spend big once than keep upgrading.

I see, thanks.

 

I really like the black and white contrast. I will have to work out if I want to go for Gigabyte AORUS theme or ROG STRIX theme - I want to keep parts uniform. As they both have AIO coolers, motherboard, GPU and stuff.

this isn't something that i would recommend doing, some things are just not worth the price you pay.

I guess that's my OCD kicking in!

 

What I tried to say, is that I really do like some of the branding of those gadgets. Some have very nice designs - I do like the NZXT coolers especially with the "infinity mirror" logo. X63 I think it is. Great reviews on it too.

 

The main thing I wish to do is a good black and white colour combo - like on the picture above. I also love that Lian Li case.
