Good morning,
Please help spec my new mobo, cpu, storage build. 10 years ago I upgrade my pc's mobo and cpu after the previous ones died. Since then a lot has changed in the CPU, mobo market. As I'm still catching up on the changes and reviews of new tech, I hoped to call on the collective knowledge of members in the forum. I've never built an AMD machine before (mainly as 10 years ago AMD were rubbish).
Here is what I have placed into my basket, this is a little rich for my liking but its a first pass. I run linux as my main os and mainly play RTS/empire games and I have recently started a little video editing so some head room would be great. I don't think I'll be overclocking this build, though I like to add in the option.
My basket at Overclockers UK:
If anyone out there could suggest a build which came in sub £1,000 that would be great.
