First Time build data anlysis + Gaming

[Jdon]

Budget (including currency):  €1500 or less

Country: Ireland/UK

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: PhD student working on R, Winbugs and excel heavily, would like to be able to play PUBG and New big titles like Cyberpunk/Far Cry

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): This would be my first build, I have random peripherals and a screen lying around however I would love to run a decent 34 inch monitor whenever I can affoard it. Not planning on overcloking or anything like that mainly looking for a good machine I can do data anylsis on and a bit of gaming. No idea if I've gone two overboard I know previously my colleagues in the area I work in have had to upgrade to 32GB of ram due to data set sizes.

i'd avoid mini-itx builds unless you realy are constrained by space. they are hotter and louder.

because OP doesn't need it. the 2060ko has similar performance to a 2080 in some professional applications

getting worse performance for pretty much the same price just because "op doesnt need it" is stupid

Same price? If you point me to a rtx 3000 card under £300 that is in stock, I'll buy you one.

the 5700 is better, but only in gaming, not in the other applications OP is mentioning
