sorry


ideally looking for 4k 60hz with details turned down but would settle for 4k 30hz gaming on tv.
and yes its a tiny case :( but i'm rather partial to it,


was eyeing up the Aorus Pro Mitx 570 which seems to be on preorder for around £270 (dont see it on ocuk though :( as a base then perhaps a x590 or similar an AMD GPU as well for this build.

had a quick spec up


Gigabyte X570 Aorus Pro M-ITX .
Ryzen 3700x
16gig corsair DDR4 3600
Powercolour X590 8gb
Intel 1tb NVME drive
2tb Toshiba HDD

grand total elsewhere comes in at £1006 delivered. although i'd rather shop here and i'm curious as to whether my puny PSU would support a 590x and a 3900x :)

ask gigabyte via @GIGA-Man to flash the bios for you to accept Ryzen 3000 chips- believe it can be done for free. VRMs will be fine to handle and the second best in class with B450 boards .

ryzen 3600x or even 3600 is plenty for trying to push 4k, all about GPU to be honest ! but then you run into power issues . super 2070 needs 550w roughly, 2060 super matches 2070 performance . medium settings and few tweaks and should be able to hit 30-40 FPS in games with 4k, 2080ti is the true 4k 60fps PLUS GPU


sorry correction... THIS rather drop to 3600 then 3600x to push the 2070 Super which matches RTX 2080 performance ! should get 4k 30 fps medium with this easily

gigabyte products are UK RMA and rep support :)

search for Intel 1tb NVMe for £100 odd​

looks like a pretty decent gaming spec tbh, only thing is i'd rather go all amd for a build,

any thoughts on a decent sub 10.5" amd card ?
