First Gaming PC

[SiwyLeo1]

Hello, 

 

I need a new pc mainly for gaming willing to spend 2/3k UK pounds, this will be my first build so I would appreciate if all the parts fitted in nicely so I wouldn't  have any problem with it  Not SLi as I enjoy playing some old games and if possible 2 monitors with 144hz and 1ms response or something like that I also want to streamt on twitch while playing the game on the main screen and on the second one have private stuff.

did you have a pc that you could upgrade or were you after a fresh build?

Gonna be difficult for £2.50. I'd recommend stealing as your most realistic option.

2-3 pounds and streaming capabilities?

Hmmmm

If you meant 2/3 thousand, here's what I would recommend for such a setup. One monitor is 144hz 1ms, the other is 75hz and you can use it for your other things. I would personally get another of the 75hz monitors and put on the other side, and get a monitor arm to mount the three monitors. Use the Swift for your games. This config should run all your games at 1440p 144hz, and that CPU will make streaming a breeze.

I would go with G.Skill flare X or some ram that is ryzen compatable so it will hit the 3000-3200mhz mark. Also he could get a asus rog board for $100ish more what could possibly give better oc

A more expensive board don't always guarantee higher overclocks

Not so much anymore. The silicon lottery is the biggest determining factor in overclocking now. All decent motherboards will give about the same overclock. You are paying for features like RGB lighting and overbuilt power delivery for extreme overclocking. I would not run a daily driver setup at an overclock that needs such extreme power delivery.

A nice 1440p 165Hz IPS G-Sync for gaming on, and a standard 60Hz panel for other stuff.

just to point out, he never typo'd.

 

unless he has since edited his original post, he said 2/3k UK pounds, important bit being the "K"
