Budget (including currency): 3600 GBP

Country: UK

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

Other details looking to build a gaming PC that’s good for the next 4/5 years. I have a Samsung odyssey G9 monitor which is a 1440p 240 mhz. 
 

I would like to be able to run all games at 1440p with maximum settings, and achieve over 120 fps in all games today and in 4/5 years from now.  Thanks for your help. 


mum an experienced IT person and I have an idea of a spec that I like but I would like to see if my thoughts are in line with yours. 
i like the O11D case or similar glass panoramic styles

That's a huge budget, you can get best of the best !

I suggest an AMD build for upgradibility, even tho it should'nt need any for 4 years 🙂

Interesting, I also went for the 4090 when I put a system together but I went for a 13900 with ddr5-6400. 
 

the biggest dilemmas for me was the PSU, atx 3.0 or not.

 

thanks for the spec, always interested in getting other opinions. Thanks again

 

edit. This is the Intel based system I was looking at, no nvme as I do have one that can be reused

Yeah it's a good option too, even more powerful and more able to benefit from hi speed RAM

But a power hog and no upgrade possible

If you don't really need to have that many ecores a 13700K is a very good option too, game performance being only a few % behind a 13900K, and easier to cool

You don't really need a 4090 in fact, but can afford it...And below that 4080 and 7900XT are bad/meh value, and hi end old gen is becoming rarer and more expensive

About the PSU issue, an ATX 3 PSU will be nice, but there isn't many, and main PSU brands now offer better 12VHPWR cables than the thing coming with a 4090

I suppose the PSU is the area of most concern. I see 4+4+8, hpwr and 8+8 and various other options. Truth is I’m a bit behind when it comes to PSU. I was budgeting about £200 and looking at the sea sonic 1000w range but obviously they are not atx3.0. I never considered the 13700. I was always thinking “balls to the wall” 5 year pc go mental! Truth is though an i5 would probably lose about 15 frames over the i9 in most 1440p games. So is the extra 400 worth it…? Idk
