Hi, so in a week I want to get a PC in the UK with water cooling and be able to play new games in 144p as well as some mobas such as league of legends and perhaps stream them. My budget is 2-2,5k British pounds and it needs to include a monitor with 144hz and 1ms response rate i can go over the budget if there is something better that will improve the total experience.

Do you need peripherals as well?

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

 

Do this:

And make sure you do it by hitting the quote button at the bottom left of my post, and not the one inside the editor!

Or this:

Buy whatever product is best for you, not what product is "best" for the market.

 

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

You can save a few bucks here and there in this build on for example the motherboard, case and PSU. I chose to go for aesthetics (except for the aircooler) here you can save a lot if you don't care about that.

Do you know by any chance how loud it would be? Beacuse I need the build to be quiet.

it's not very loud, if you want quiet a noctua nd-d15 or be quiet dark rock pro 3 would be a better choice.

The build I quickly put together has RGB ram, mobo, and gpu. Though it needs some tweaking by someone who knows their stuff better than I do (the PSU I chose is way overkill)

Chose the most silent AIO out there and the strix, a pretty silent card. Mobo and GPU are both rgb.

You can find them pretty much anywhere. This, for example, would work.

Hi, so in a week I want to get a PC in the UK with water cooling and be able to play new games in 144p as well as some mobas such as league of legends and perhaps stream them. My budget is 2-2,5k British pounds and it needs to include a monitor with 144hz and 1ms response rate i can go over the budget if there is something better that will improve the total experience.

@SiwyLeo1 don't forget CableMod cables. :)

Looks like a good high end build! Of course this has a lot of bells and whistles so you could trim the price if you wanted, but for a high end build this is good.

how does he need 32gb of ram just for streaming? motherboard is also overkill.

This is a high end build, it can have a high end motherboard. Also, many streamers end up posting videos on youtube as well, and the extra ram helps render videos, same reason I went with the 2tb HDD to store possible future videos.

It's not required, it's just neat to have/a luxury really, I have 32 gigs too and I don't even stream

What do you use the 32 Gigs for? 


I have 2x8 GB RAM and I barely use 12 xD

SNIP

I have 10+ tabs when I have an essay to right but I still barely get up to 8 while gaming.

 

My brother has 20+ and is fine with 8GB. I hope you are doing something more than this xD
