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

That’s about what I have for my build, I’m not a fan of that case but that’s a matter of opinion. Why don’t you go with a coffelake cpu ?

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!

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.
