I’m getting to the end of planning my first build any advice that I could have to maybe make it cheaper for around the same performance?

  • CPU-Intel core i7 10700KF £190
  • GPU-NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3060 Ti £369
  • Motherboard-MSI MEG Z490 Unify £216
  • RAM-CORSAIR Vengeance RGB PRO DDR4 Desktop DIMM RAM (2x8gb) £96
  • SSD- addlink s70 1tb £57
  • PSU-Corsair RMX Series, RM750x, 750 Watt £134
  • CASE-Phanteks Eclipse P360A £47
  • COOLING-Cooler Master MasterLiquid ML240R ARGB Close-Loop AIO CPU Liquid Cooler, 240 Radiator £93

Total price £1202

 

alsonthus should be able to handle 1440p right?

If you don't mind ATX asus Z490-P can be had for 145£ and is more than enough for any 10th/11th gen CPU

make sure you get ram that's at least 3200mhz CL16, and 3600mhz CL16 if you aim high framerates

xpg core reactor is also a good psu, the 650w version is still enough and costs 60, if you really want 750w bitfenix formula costs 80

looking you want to run 1440p you could buy a cheaper cooler and still you wouldn't loose a lot of performance

It is Intel, faster ram won't change much, if anything.

 

And only thing that you could get cheaper is non-RGB RAM, if you intend to overclock that is. And perhaps a PSU from a tier lower.
