Extra budget

[james8449834]

Hi

I'm playing about with the below configuration.  And with an Rx 9070xt I've got about an extra £800 left in my budget but I do need a display.  Any suggestions about the best value adiahion, 

 

I'd like to have a good 1440p set up with the option of running a cable into the living room for some sofa gaming. tv is 4k 60hz 

 

I can't see a difference personally over 120 FPS, 

 

Thoughts comments suggestions

Buy Windows at gamers-outlet.net instead. 

 

Upgrade your storage to 1TB 990 PRO +4TB 990 Evo. Storage is never enough.

 

Upgrade the thermal paste. 

 

And it might be worth stepping up to 850W PSU for some future proofing and efficiency.

Shop on Amazon for some case fans, like Silent Wings 4 140.

Thanks I'd not disided on the case tbo, my last system was a laptop, and before that an old office pc with a used graphics card and display I stole from work so all this high end is new to me, just got a new place for less than I was expecting and bigger

On the other hand, you could keep their Windows and tell them to set it up on the 990Pro and use it as your system drive, another for your games, etc. Windows 11 is a bit finicky with hard drive configurations.

Hi not 100% if I'm going to get it from those guys but they are generally pretty good form what I have read and the difference in price for what I'm getting is now that much more than just the parts. And the convenience of having it set up for me is is worth it. 

 

Mostly just want to avoid getting something extra because I can but not benefit, 

 

I was playing about with raid

I'm assuming that the parts I've chosen 11 overhead is not going to be to much of an issue although but the time I've bought the flat to put the system in 12 will be out
