Hi everyone, first of all i want to state that I am a beginner with anything to do with PCs so I have little knowledge to none. I am a passionate gamer (10+ years console/laptop) and think it's time to upgrade to PC gaming.
My aim is game, stream, record and edit videos (maybe photoshop too) but also longevity of the PC. My budget is roughly £2000 (this can differ depending on value for money)
I've been looking at OcUK Coffee Lake Pro Gaming Configurator with these specs:
Case
NZXT H700i Midi Tower Gaming Case - Black
Motherboard
Asus ROG Strix Z390-F Intel Z390 (Socket 1151) DDR4 ATX
Processor
Intel Core i7-8700K 3.7GHz (Coffee Lake) Socket LGA1151 Processor - OEM
CPU Cooler
NZXT Kraken X52 AIO Water Cooling Unit - 240mm
Memory
Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 PC4-24000C15 3000MHz Dual Channel Kit - Black
Graphics
MSI GeForce GTX 1070Ti Gaming 8192MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card
Solid State Drive 1
Samsung 250GB 860 EVO SSD 2.5" SATA 6Gbps 64 Layer 3D V-NAND Solid State Drive (MZ-76E250B/EU)
Mechanical Hard Drive 1
Seagate 2TB BarraCuda 7200RPM 256MB Cache HDD *System Stock*
Power Supply
EVGA SuperNova G3 850W 80 Plus Gold Modular Power Supply
Case Lighting
NZXT Hue+ RGB Dual Channel LED Controller - Black
Operating System
Microsoft Windows 10 Home Advanced - Systems
Total: £2042.72
I also want to buy asus monitor 24inch 144hz.
Is this overkill? Or is this not enough? FYI i'm still deciding whether gtx 1080 or 1080ti will be worth it, same with 32gb or 16gb DDR4 3000hz.
Looking forward to replies, thanks!
