As in the elders scrolls 3?

Other than that, hot climate shouldn't be too bad if you dont overclock your stuff + have a good PSU.

Make sure you have good ventilation to prevent the dust.

other than that, good luck achieving 120fps in 4k

forgot the monitor price... This is my first go at this, I was basing the 120fps off the calculators

I think everything's fine, and for the advice i stated it in the comment above.

[Lord Nicoll]

Given the motherboard I presume you're going with watercooling, have you ever built your own loop before?

Why the Founders Edition 3090?? Custom 3090 is better.

Yeah, don't take $14K of gaming PC somewhere you're going to kill it fast with heat and dust? Is this a joke?

As long as you clean the pc a lot and it has good temps it will be fine. Is he supposed to move somewhere so his pc can be in a cooler place??

GIGABYTE Z490 AORUS XTREME Waterforce 

just because it's the most expensive motherboard doesn't mean it's what you need.

this motherboard is designed for custom loop water cooling, were you going to go for this method of cooling?

[Dedayog]

I don't even understand what's going on here.  $14k for a PC and a TV?

 

Component choices make no sense if this isn't a fantasy build or a "click most expensive" thing.

 

Good to see you're looking out for the fiscal health of your company tho    Being responsible and thoughtful to their capital spending is important, good to see!!!

False, the FE has the same cooling capacity as other cards now, it wasn't plagued by the insufficient capacitors like the 'cheaper' aib cards and as cherry on top of the cake as always the FE cards have the best binning.

Never, I've been watching the build video's on youtube and have been loving them, but I'm doing this because I can't get any mail sent to me... So I have to bring this all with me by plane and thought it would be safer in parts.

 

Loop??? The CPU is water-cooled, I'm just researching what case cooling is (started today) I was only aware of case fans.

I'm trapped here for work, might have been an over exaggeration but I'm not paying for it. I wouldn't say it's dustier here than in Australia, same heat too but all year long. I'm stuck here for the next ten years, so what, should I keep it in it's own room? Don't mean to sound offensive, but I just started learning about this two days ago.

No, they both seem to cool about the same, my original build was with the same motherboard not water force with a noctua fan

Fantasy for you maybe not for Fonzie!

It does look sleek and nice, but I would advise you, especially for a 14,000usd pc, to get a custom built. Custom builds have faster speeds out of the box and the 3090s with 3 fans easily beat out on cooling then the FE.

If you have the time I would hear it, what would you pick with the money?

For starters, browse these...

 

https://au.pcpartpicker.com/guide/

 

Second, if you're making money and want to blow it on retail therapy, by all means.  I run Accounting departments, so I get salty when people blow money just because.  Truly, a new PC ain't going to help what you're feeling much no matter the cost.

 

Find a few good community driven games, like Ark, Conan, Minecraft, any toxic fps shooter etc etc etc.  Join their Discords and enjoy.  You don't need a $14k setup for that

 

Sorry, all done.  But look at the Glorious level builds on pcpartpicker and tack on a TV of your choice if you want

You need to build the watercooling loop yourself (motherboard and CPU blocks are part of the motherboard) buy you need the pump, res, radiator, tubing and fittings yourself. 

[Lord Nicoll]

Watercooled PC's look a little like this. This is a daily system I use a lot and don't really care about looks, so I was gonna make it look nice but couldn't be arsed to actually do that.
