Hi

 

I'm putting together a new build mainly for gaming. I'm from UK and my budget is around £1200 maybe push it to £1300.

 

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/fRdPXP

 

this is the build I've Put together so far.

my only doubts are with the Cooler and PSU

 

it doesn't include a graphics card cause I'm gonna buy that later. I'm not fully decided which graphics card i want maybe 1070 maybe 1080 if prices go down and i save up some more money.

 

I'm not really interested in RGB and i dont need any monitor, keyboard or mouse.


I'm pretty sure this is a decent build but second opinion never hurt anyone.

 

thanks for any help in advance

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

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!

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.
