1.4K desktop build (tower no perennials)

To be fair I think given my needs a Rtx2080ti would be possible if I build it in my budget or if I stretch to1. 7k?
 
The guy is going to test a different CPU and if it works he will put price up. And the GPU was bought from OCUK.
 
Depending on how you phrase it, of course. if you're doing the troubleshooting for him, then clearly not. you need to approach this as a buyer that's potentially put off by the fault.
"unfortunately, as you cannot exclude which component is causing the issues, and hence the loss in performance, i think that £1700 is higher that i would want to pay"

He got fed up of the ram issue so went and bought a whole bigger better setup.

He's getting so much interest in the system.

He sounds like he has the means to duplicate an expensive system while he repairs and sells on the other at a loss?

I've done similar - not to that degree - but the buyer has always profited so sounds legit. Gave me time to sort the problem at my leisure and a friend/family got to benefit.

If you're confident that he's legit and fixing the problem i would keep your hand in.
 
I've sent him links to help him to be honest.

I'll see how it goes.

I would be interested on a spec up of 2700/x and 2080Ti if someone can help with that
 
I've used a ryzen 2700 as a placeholder - OCUK's ryzen pricing is ridiculous. Can get a 2700x for cheaper than ocuk selling a 2700 elsewhere.

My basket at Overclockers UK:
Total: £1,798.63 (includes shipping: £11.70)

Get gigabyte has the better customer service , but 3+1 year warranty to 3+2 years (think Zotac have sorted it for no longer needing to go to HK after the first 2/3 years are up

@tamzzy I had a warning today haha :)

Push x470 carbon min if your planning Zen2 high core/high Hz
 
Christ, that build really highlights the monopoly (p*ss take) nVidia has that 60% of the system is the GFX card. :/

@willhub, would you consider optimising for the 1440p monitor if that's your main gaming display(?) - as VEGA VII or a 2080 would help reduce costs considerably and still perform adequately for occasional 4K.
 
Which is the faster card once tweaked and overclocked, 2080 or Vii

And let's look at a spec with that mobo for good Zen 2 support
