It's better, but it still has alot of overheating issues and is overpriced.



Also you don't need 850W.
This is a much better, CHEAPER unit.

My current PC Specs

I’m deciding between G.Skill Trident and CORSAIR Vengeance RGB Pro. I’d like thoughts and recommendations on which set I should buy.

The two pictures are the two I am currently considering. I mainly game, but I also do some photoshop and video editing as well.

Ya sure you don't wanna get a better psu first before that thing gives up? It's not made to handle a system like this and it's not really a good psu.

 

Either way for memory since you have a 11400 3200mhz is the cap.

 

You could get this stuff:

Also I like the case you have just kinda sucks that it's so crappily built and the fans are basically worthless big missed opportunity there I find.

Whats wrong with your current RAM kit? 16GB is probably enough (correct me if wrong tho)

But, I would upgrade your PSU first. The BQ is a very low end unit that is known to have issues with mid - high end GPUS.

Power supply first. NEVER cheap out on the PSU. I almost did, and am glad I didn't, my SEASONIC Focus is THE BOMB. And not in a gigabyte way.

Would this PSU be better, or do you have a specific recommendation?

In that case, is this a sufficient PSU?
