My Threadripper system is becoming increasingly unstable and I don't really want to try and fix it as it's old tech and long in the tooth at this point. It's also a power hungry monster. I built it back when threadripper was first released so it's lasted well but is now showing its age (especially in modern games).


Purchase Timeframe:
This week

Budget:

£1200-1600 (closer to 1200 would be nice)

Usage:

Some gaming at 1440p, mainly coding + running VMs to test stuff

Preferences:

I like Asrock - I've never had an issue with their stuff so I tend to pick them by default. Happy to look at other stuff if there's a significant saving to be had.

Current Hardware:

Threadripper 1950x (16c32t)
64GB (8 x 8GB)
Asus Prime X399
Zotac 1070
Corsair RM1000x
+ Lots of NVME + SATA SSDs

Special Needs/Requirements (inc Wi-Fi):

Smaller and quieter than my current setup - other than a new boot drive I intend to use my existing disks.

Current thinking:
My basket at OcUK:

Total: £1,657.87 (includes delivery: £11.9
8)​

Help! :)
I've not built/specced anything but servers since I build my current system and stuff has moved on a lot!

Thanks in advance!
