Following on from this thread, I have now split and sold the majority of the old system and managed to secure a 3060Ti FE in the last drop this week!!! So now I need to make a decision and order the rest of the system.
Is the I5 10400/B460 still a good paring or is the RYzen 3600/B550 worth the extra?
My basket at Overclockers UK:
My basket at Overclockers UK:
Understand the memory will be restricted to 2666MHz on the I5 but its cheaper than the slower modules.
The rest that I will probably be going for is:
Case: Corsair 4000D or Fractal Meshify C
PSU: Corsair TX650M
SSD: WD Blue 1TB 2.5" SSD (already have)
Are there any other combinations or parts I should be considering? I5-10600K?
Any comments greatly appreciated.
