Hey,

Finally I think I got the specification worth buying with mixture of suggestions from my previous thread and research, but thought I just double check in case I messed things up somewhere :D

Budget - 3k
Primary function in order - Development, Gaming, Design(Photoshop), Video Conversion(converting MKV to AVI only as my TV doesn't support AVI)
Over-clocking - My last build I did plan to OC but never did so unlikely
SLI - Unlikely
Monitor - Yes 24" to 27"
Peripherals - Possible(mouse, keyboard and speakers) not essential as I still have my old
PCIe SSD - Unlikely gains didn't seem worth it
4K Gaming - Not sure but chose 4K monitor :rolleyes:
Water-cooling - Unlikely

My Spec Overclockers UK:

Total: £2,714.00
(includes shipping: £15.90)

The case only supports mATX...i don't think that's right it should support ATX.

However after looking I don't think the case has anywhere for the internal dvd drive

No, looked at the wrong spec.

Here's it corrected to work and with cost savings.

My basket at Overclockers UK:

Total: £2,239.84
(includes shipping: £28.02)

This case doesnt have external drive bays so if you do need an optical drive then you need an external one.

Heres a version all colour coded and a pre-overcloked bundle,

You can add an internal optical drive to this case.

4K, IPS, Gsync monitor - https://www.overclockers.co.uk/acer...descreen-led-monitor-black-red-mo-096-ac.html - would be great for games.
 
Thanks guys for spotting that error with the motherboard not fitting case :eek:that would have been a disaster :D

stulid like your spec so going to order the first one some how you saved a few hundred :D, colour coded version nice but the position of my PC you don't actually don't get to see the window of it :mad: unless I pull it out.

I think I just change the case as I like internal optical drive, also due to space limitation trying to get a good mid tower. With the motherboard shouldn't I be getting one that has USB 3.1?

Click to expand...

If you are going with Stulids 1st spec and want USB 3.1

The Phanteks Enthoo Pro is a nice case and it has room for an optical drive. There is also a non windowed version for £10 less.
