Want to build a new PC for my use cases

Mix of Gaming,Programming,Multitasking & others.
(Thinking of 2920x 2950X & 16GB of ram at least)


Budget £3000 but the lower the better.

would love to see your thoughts

Needing Gigabit Lan for ant NAS set up ?
Always you to two boards, Aorus for faster Lan/WiFi and UK RMA or MSI Meg for extra VRM if you going to rage the hell out of it for extended periods of time
 
i wont buy Gigabyte, (just had terrible exp with the ryzen 7 bios.

THis is a draft spec/MSi MEG but not on OCUK yet (ocuk will be building this

Miles better then that CLC . Run pump 100%

My basket at Overclockers UK:

Zenith should be fine with 16 core :)

CAM is aweful, just use boards fan controller

End up with something like this

Having such a small NVMe drive isn't worth it, same price rather get 500gb SSD .
Though if your doing heavy data processing and crunching then is a damn fast drive

THE CLC still not tottally sure at but the enemerax has a bigger cold plate and high heat dissipation.

nvme drive will only be used for the OS nothing else so seems silly going for 500GB

No wonder why that they have used a full sized plate, makes up for poor flow and head pressure and cheap aluminium rad and copper plate design hehe
Has to use higher rates fans to achieve its heat dissipation. A 30mm thick 120 has the theoretical heat dissipation of 400w if you used a 3000rpm+ industrial 30mm thick fan etc .
And hats off, they do seem like damn good fans, just a shame the rest of the unit isn't a nice.


Just grab a smaller cheaper nvme , or install your applications at least on the NVMe . Expensive drive to be sat unused, you'll find drive reaches its rated speed once it's about a 1/5 populated .
And I come from a very Pro Samsung family and get nvme drives for free and find them hard to quote for people's useage

It's 400w , swap for silent wing 3 and it's about 650w.

Units like Alphacool/ Bequiet & ekwb AIO run tubing sizes that are 10/8 mm inner diameter , above units are about 5mm ID .
You'll have to look at pump flow and pressure rates . Normally about double

swapped :) & getting a qoute from OCUK monday.
 
Silent wing fans are amazing , and being 3 for the price of two, may find yourself switching out the fans on the AIO for them . I run 80% and at a time PC in a TJ07 was next to my son's cotbed haha

Haha like wise , went for their PSU just for silence but did cost an arm and a leg but had to be silent .. when my son was 2-4 months had a habit of waking up at 5am for a feed, then would pass out on me so would have a cheeky game for 3 hours on the weekend with him on me or in the cot next to the PC haha
