Hi all,

I created a thread a couple weeks back asking for some pointers on a new build to replace my current 5-6 year old PC.

Having had a look around at whats on offer, the below is where I have come to. Just curious if there is anything that is immediately worth swapping, and I had no idea on case so just kind of chucked one in.. I assume the graphics will have no issue with clearance? Finally, the only other thing to sort is cooling - I have never done anything except just use the stock coolers but want this PC to run quite quiet. What would the best solution be?

I am also going to be picking a monitor up. The budget for the PC & Monitor is £1500-1600 or so, but I really do know nothing about them. My current one will be a bit of a disappointment having spent out on such a good gaming rig! Any suggestions much appreciated.

I've only had a quick look but it looks like a solid build. Very capable machine. Since you spent so much on a decent card you'll want a real good monitor, 1440p and above. Check out monitors that run at 144hz with gsync/freesync if you can afford it.
