AKA Project Arkham.

 

Following Build Plan Thread Recommendations:


1) I can spend about 250$-350$ per month. I live in Poland.
2) I want powerful gaming rig that might be used for video editing in the future. Doom, Batman Arkham, that kind of stuff.

3) One monitor. Big one.

4) I have new keyboard, recently bought, and Win10, bought as well.

5) I'm upgrading because my current rig is getting old:  8gb DDR3, AMD Phenom II X4 965. I bought two Asus' Geforce GTX 1060 Expedition 6gb a while ago (before that I had Gigabyte GeForce GTX 650 1gb)> I'm planning to play with crypto mining in the future, so those two will have some more powerful company.

 

I call it Project Arkham because I bought Thermaltake Core P5 Green Edition (love form the first sight) and I'm planning to do liquid cooling with purple colour and vinyl sticker with The Joker on plexi.

 

What I have for now:
- Thermaltake Toughpower 1000W

- G.SKILL 16GB 3200MHz Ripjaws V Black CL16 (2x8GB) x2

- Patriot 256GB SSD Spark

 

What I want:
- Asus ROG Zenith Extreme

- Threadripper gen 1

- two 1TB SSDs

- liquid cooling loop

- MAAAAAAAAAAYYBEEEEEE some graphics and RAM OC

 

What dou You think of this build, good tech people around the world? I want it mostly plug&play touch&go. Software tinkering makes me bored, I like to tinker with hardware though.

I think you should save up and buy it all at once. Otherwise you'll likely have a mix of newer, decently priced hardware and older hardware you paid too much for.
