Hi mates,

I'm about to buy a new gaming pc, my old one died.

Any opinions about the specs would be nice.

P.S:

I have got 1TB HDD already from my old pc, And I'm gonna overclock the hole pc from the CPU (5.0GHZ at least) to the GPU (2100mhz) and the RAM (3200mhz).

PC SPECS

Hey man!

You want some high end stuff there! Everything looks solid, my 2 cents would be saying that you don't need the T2 PSU from EVGA, a G3 at the same wattage would be perfectly fine.

I don't know the waterblock availability for other 1080Ti versions, but buying the Strix only to remove cooler and rgb on it... It seems that maybe you can get other 1080Ti version that is cheaper and also have waterblock available and you'll end up having the same for less money.

I am 100% sure that having two 360+420 radiators is super overkill. You should be perfectly fine with only this 420 rad. I won't judge if you want it for looks only, :) but it is unnecessary especially since I see you're not going to have 2 separate loops. Are you sure that having two rads wont cause pressure problems for your pump purely because of its resistance and loop length? I'm not experienced in watercooling, just checking. If you want to go for looks then some RGB fans might be better then EK ones.

Other then this I got nothing more to add, cpu is great, mobo is good, rams are ok too and this SSD rocks. If you're after looks not only efficiency you might want to add some sleeved cables :) 

 

Good luck!

The G3 is a loud PSU, especialy the higher wattage ones. The G3 850W got LAMBDA-B, vs A++ on the T2. 

Personally, I would get the Prime, as I consider that a better unit :P

Looks good. 

An850W PSU is overkill for a single GPU system. 

The RAM is mediocre, but it won't make any real difference. 

For gaming, an NVMe SSD won't make a difference, as the CPU is the bottleneck during loading in games and booting into Windows.

Looks like a fairly high end build, so not much to complain about

What do you think that can make my pc better for gaming ?

what will you upgrade or change to get better preformance ?

The hole pc including the water cooling system cost me around 3500$ you think for this money I can get better preformace(with 1xGPU)?
