Hey LTT!

Looking for a completely new build - primarily gaming but also everyday browsing etc.
Around 1800 USD (bit more or less doesnt matter), Do keep in mind the parts are purchased in Denmark so theres a 25% tax on everything.
So really only about $1400ish after tax;
R5 1600 is around 199$ on Pcpart, In denmark its like $260.

Its gonna run two monitors, one of them being a 144hz Asus, at 1080.
Just the regular led mouse+keyboard combo.
Games played is mostly FPS titles, BF1, CSGO, Overwatch, but also games like rocket league, GTAV, LoL and A titles.

Prefer a "high end" PSU (plat/gold) for both the warranty and efficiency.
Also a Motherboard with optical audio, and a +-500gb SSD.

Dont care for RGB, Windows or other cosmetic, the computer is gonna be put away anyway :)

Already have windows 10
Things I've considered;
R5 1600 (hopefully oc'd) along with a noctua air cooler(?)
16gb G.skill Flare ram
probs asus 1070 card (hardly any cause of miners tho)
850 evo 500gb


Hoping for some advice, Thanks!

resolution you play at?

titel states 1080ish and you mention a 1070 later on - so does it matter?

 

the 1800$ are including your FREAKING LARGE 25% tax or without?

Titles states 1800 as in budget :)
tax not included - will update the post
1080 gaming only.
