Hello everyone.

 

I am new here, I would like start building my first gaming PC, I have been saving for almost 2 years.

and now I am really confused what should I use in the build ( sorry for my bad English ) I have a budget of 5000 € and I would like to know if any one can recommend what parts should I use.

I am really keen on NZXT with water cooling, but really I don't know, I would appreciate your help guys.

And thank you so much

when you talk about water cooling do you mean custom liquid cooling or just an all in one system for the CPU?

 

What are your objectives to complete? 4k 60FPS? 1080p 60FPS? What are your storage needs?

 

5000 Euro is enough to pretty much build the best money can buy right now. Spending more than 2000-3000 Euro and your in the area of spending ridiculous amounts on money on un-needed hardware.

What I am really keen on is 4K gaming and VR, for the cooling also I want it to be custom cooling, for the storage all I want is 1tb.

Are you sure you want to do a custom liquid cooling for your first build? I highly suggest against it.

I would buy a computer worth around 1500-2000€ now, then save the rest. This will get you a brilliant system by today's standards, and if you want to upgrade in 3-5 years from now, you'll have 3000-3500€ to buy an even better PC than is even possible today.

I edit my posts a lot.

You'll want an SSD, even if just a 500GB one for a boot drive, then maybe a 1TB WD black HDD to go with it.

5000 Euro is waaay too much for a computer, you're better off spending 2500 today, and getting a car or something with the rest :)

Where are you from? We can help you find where to buy computer components.

 

I also highly advise against building a custom watercooling loop for your first time. You'll want either an air cooler or an AIO.

I know hahaha ? I saved up a lot just to have that safety net, but probably I'll spend around 2000€ - 3500€ And save up the rest of the money.

I'm not sure about pre-builts, but the sort of parts you'd be looking at are:

  • Intel i7
  • GTX 1080 
  • 16-32GB RAM
  • 500GB-1TB SSD
  • 1TB-2TB HDD
  • 650-750W PSU

I think you should stay away from watercooling for now since it doesn't really add much to cooling and brings a lot more danger to your build.

the thing is if you try and fail at a custom loop you ruin the entire PC, costing you thousands...

Yeah the monitor is a big chunk of the cost, since it will last you for longer than the rest of the computer components
