need help Building my First pc

[WarriorWolf56]

Hi I want to build my first pc but want to start with a bang ( as most good things are)... I meant the universe. I have a £2000 budget give or take £500 and have not fixed my mind on certain parts and would like advice and suggestions please.

Hi

 

What exactly do you need ? Just the tower or do you need a monitor and peripherals etc as well ?

[WarriorWolf56]

I need the tower and also peripherals but they won’t be factored into my budget and will probably get them separately

Here's a list for you to consider; Ryzen 7 2700X on an X470 motherboard, 16GB of RAM (with RGB), and a GTX 1080 Ti, all for under £2000.

If you needed a monitor and peripherals, reducing the amount of storage, changing to cheaper non-RGB RAM, and going for perhaps a Ryzen 5 2600 and an Arctic Freezer 33 eSports One is a nice alternative.

2700X and 1080 Ti, it's top of the line for gaming, no doubt.

[WarriorWolf56]

Damn really I thought it would cost a lot more to get top of the line. What settings would you think this could run games on like most high one or two ultra

What resolution you going to be gaming at ? as that will impact gpu choice.

Yeah, no. Unless you're getting into CPU's like i9's and Threadrippers, SLI, ludicrous amounts of storage, absurd amounts of memory... you get the idea. If you're not going completely overboard, it doesn't cost more than $2000 to get the best of the best. As for what settings? 

 

Ultra. Easily.

 

Even at 4K, it can handle itself well.

Well the 1080 ti has been suggested and I will just use the highest resolution it’s capable of without dropping frames

The 1080 ti can handle any resolution (Some better than others obviously) but the sweet spot is 1440p/165Hz. Those monitors are pretty expensive though i.e £500+ for a 27" IPS G-Sync. If you go 1080p then the 1080 ti is somewhat overkill as a 1070 ti would do fine.

How well do you think this would hold up in the future in like 2-5 years compared to other future machines
