1440p PC planning

[SnipingBow]

Budget (including currency): 2,500$ to 3,000$ CAD

Country: CANADA

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: RUST, GTA6, Call of Duty, Work (heavy excel files and office programs)

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): 

• 2 x 1440p, 165hz monitors, 27 inches
• As a noob I prefer NVDIA GPU but I have no idea why
• I prefer a black PC with RBG
• Case needs to fit Magnus Pro desk 
  • Height: 354 - 543mm (14.0 - 21.5")
  • Width: 170 - 300mm (6.7 - 11.8")
  • Weight: Up to 25kg (55lb)

What do you guys think of this PC? https://www.canadacomputers.com/en/armoury-gaming-desktops/251054/armoury-ryzen-7-7800x3d-rtx-4070s-32gb-ddr5-2tb-ssd-aio-wi-fi-win11h-rtaru00120.html

 

Should I buy it or build this one? The problem with this one is that the parts are unavailable at a decent price unless I know where to look. PC part picker is giving me extremely high prices. https://pcpartpicker.com/user/snipingbow/saved/pPD223

That Gigabyte Eagle comes with the old school 1G LAN hence the cost. Look for a board with the newer 2.5G LAN.

Thanks for your answer. Can you add RGB to look like the photo of the prebuilt PC I posted?

 

Also, would you recommend a 4070 super or the one you posted? I just want to be able to run everything on the highest settings at 120 FPS+ but I like how the NVDIA branding looks.

 

Finally, is that CPU much worst than the 9800X3D?

Thank you so much for your help. If you were me would go AMD or NVDIA at that price point. Im so clueless and indecisive...

 

Also the more I think about it that prebuilt I posted is an insanely good deal it has a 7800X3D

Agreed, that prebuilt looks to be a decent deal.

Hey I noticed that you changed the build for a water cooler. Can you help me find an RGB one that would fit the previous build you posted? Also, I am going to wait for the 9800X3D to come back in stock, would the rest of build work if I only change that component? Thanks

This should fit either of those cases.

This is still water cooled, I want to move away from that if possible to air cooling.

You want low profile RAM if using a dual tower cpu cooler so that the RAM heatsinks don't impede said cooler.
