Hey peeps,
I’m treating myself to a new PC that I’d like to use for 1440p (possibly widescreen) gaming. About 10 years ago I built a pc with an AMD 1090t, 8gb of memory and a HD 6870 (later upgraded to a 470) and for the type of games I play/ed, it’s copped really well. I’ve got more free time on my hands now and I’d like to play a wider range of games so I’ve picked the below parts and if anyone wants to throw in their opinions as to whether there’s any changes to be made, that’d be cool beans. The only thing I can see being a potential problem is the thickness of the graphics card although I’m quite handy with a Dremel and I’ve got a laser cutter so I’m tempted to try some custom stuff in the case anyhoo.
Also if anyone could suggest a monitor that would pair well with this system, I’d appreciate that. Especially if you already own one
Thanks in advance.
