New PC build need help

[davet1]

Hi, i built this pc https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/zgtv8r back in 2019 since then ive not kept up to date with any new releases and im looking to upgrade since im going to uni soon. I would like to have a smaller form-factor like a 011 mini. I intend to keep storage and will keep any other parts if its worth to.

Budget (including currency): £1500-1800 GBP

Country: UK

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Mostly gaming mostly rust and csgo, not looking for the best looking graphics mostly concerned about FPS with a 1080p 280hz monitor, also would be used for school work (nothing more than a couple tabs of chrome)

Other details ( Besides storage I already have a full setup with peripherals, no need to upgrade. looking to upgrade in a couple months, near the end of summer.

Thanks for any help looking forward to upgrade.

You'd save a lot of money by keeping the same motherboard. If you do, then all you have to do is buy a 5800X3D CPU, probably a higher-wattage power supply, and then use everything you have leftover for a strong GPU (think RX6800XT, RX7800XT(X), RTX3080(Ti), RTX4070Ti, etc.) - Look at reviews for all these cards and see how they compare.

 

If you want to get a smaller case, you'll also need a smaller motherboard and then you'd probably just want to sell the existing PC and start fresh. In that case, look into the 7800X3D as a higher-end option, or something like the 13600K(F) paired with some fast DDR4 for a cheaper option.

 

Unfortunately I don't have the time right now to give you a full pcpp list, but hopefully this is a good starting point.

The 120mm fan goes inside the back of that case for a rear exhaust fan.

Just keep the board. This is provisional though because as you stated:

Come back to us again in the end of the summer. Prices and availability of products changes all the time, and most lists are obsolete after around 2-4 weeks.

 

7 Liter cut in size (1L smaller than Focus 2), better GPU, and better CPU for gaming.
