Cool Master Cosmos re use?

as long as it can fit a standard size psu and motherboad then yes, the spec sheet in the link suggests that it does, so yeah, why not, go for it!
 
I did ask the other day for a gaming spec pc. But I’ve been doing some research, so I’m going to try and build it myself, windows 11 home I can download from a friend onto a usb stick and buy a legal product key to save money. Was thinking am5 build. Gtx 4070ti super but going to wait closer to Black Friday for two reasons. 1 hopefully there will be more news about the 5 series release date so the 4070ti super might come into my price range. 2 Black Friday deals.

Do you think tho £140 + 4% total price of build is worth it if OC build it for me. I’m just trying to save money so I can buy better components. As my budget is only £1000. The pc is a Xmas present so no rush yet.
 
Its so old you might have problems selling the case especially as I doubt you have any way to post it to any buyer.

You also get 3 Years Parts and Labour Warranty with OC building it so you need to decide if thats worth the extra cost.
 
It would probably be a good idea into looking to buy a 240mm AIO cooler in the cosmos (as it has space at the top of the case) due to limited airflow into the case. A bigger air cooler misght struggle more than an AIO on a modern cpu in that case.
 
Don’t think there much point yet? As I’m going to wait for Black Friday to try and get more value for money. Unless I win the lottery.
 
Best bet is to book mark the items you want and mark there prices down and then see what BS they try to punt you on black friday to see if you will save anything.
 
I’ve done two list, a dream of AMD Ryzen 7 78000X3D, gtx 4070ti super just build around them. Second list is what has been done for me for around £1000 on this forum. So just going to keep an eye on the prices running up to BF. Fingers crossed I can reach somewhere in the middle.

prices can go up as well as down, a 7800 3d is relatively cheap on ocuk right now, they used to be more expensive, £349 here and elsewhere are probably pricematched with no gaurantee that prices will stay so low, if one goes up, so will the other, if you have £1000 now, and your build will cost £ 1000 , personally I'd just get it done rather than wait until November
 
Was hoping with the 5000 series coming out soon it would have a knock on effect by prices of 4000 series being reduced. As I’m quite happy buying a 4000 series one.
 
that was on a diff thread i did couple days ago..could save a bit more going non rgb of course, but am5/7600/7800xt is still a good pc for £1k. Problem with waiting is there's always something coming out round the corner. at some point you have to pull the trigger and buy, and just enjoy what you have

If you're really brave you can get the 7600 for less than £150 if you ship it in, or a 7700 for less than £200...save more by going 2nd hand....

but a 4070ti build for under £1k? BF deals aren't that good..last few years pc parts have just gone up in price leading to BF, and then just drop back down to where they were


mobo gigabyte gaming x ax £150
RAM corsair 32x 6000c36 rgb £96
7600 cpu £176 (use stock cooler to start)..a36 freezer dual fan rgb £30 as cooler..or peerless assassin
ssd 1tb sn770 £60 (105 for 2tb)
psu 750w nzxt x750v2 £70 (or msi mpg A850G 100)
case montech air 903 max midi rgb £60
£612 total for 1tb, 750w, stock cooler etc
gpu 7800xt £450...choice of saphire pulse/powercolor xt fighter.speedster 319(£448)
xfx speedster swft 210 £430

so £1042 with speedster gpu..1st upgrade would be doubling ssd storage to 2tb for £45 more and the cooler. Case is subjective, feel free to choose own look, just check some reviews..put that in as £60 as a decent quality 'value' case

7800xt has 16gb vram and step up again, being 97% faster than the 3060 and 40% faster than the 6750xt (look at same comparison table above)...it's a decent current gen card offering very good performance(beats my 3070ti and on par with the 3080 which cost £650 back in the day) with 16gb vram...you'll have to go 4070tisuper for same ammount vram on nvidia...you do miss out of dlss and poor ray tracing, but it costs less, and you're still getting decent performance

google where you can get windows as don't pay £100+ for it when available for less than £20
