Full builds without GPU?

[braven25]

I been considering for while to get a (mostly) new build, computer I have is rather old, but with a realtively newer GPU (Red Devil 5700XT).


With that in mind I do feel it be nice if they was a option in the custom builds pc to not ship with GPU, as in my case swapping in the 5700XT to newer rig would be more than enough, and old 580 can go back into my old pc.

Would be especially usefull in current enviroment where GPU are hard to get and at inflated prices

Could you build it yourself ?

Overclockers will cutom build as mentioned above whats your budget excluding labour which i guess would be £150 approx.

I can build myself, tho I prefer professional built and tested rigs for foudations.

My current rig is still good, but the Ryzen 1600X is surely bottlenecking the GPU, not enough to be a big issue at 1440p, but they certain room to improve overall balance of the rig, and prep for whatever GPU comes in the future

What motherboard do you have you may be able to drop in a new cpu.

Could go cpu and motheboard upgrade or put a list of parts together and get Overclockers to build.

B350, would need flashing to support higher end CPU, but I prefer a higher end board and proper watercool setup, and Watercooling is only part I not comfortable doing myself, hence the desire for a GPU-less pre-build.

If your only watercooling the cpu then an aio watercooler could be an option.

Which build are you looking at ?

None specifically at the moment, just getting feel for market.

Moving house soon, and have better idea on budget after that, then I be looking proper.

My current rig is AiO, but was budget rush build after prev rig finally died, and I much rather go back to proper watercooled system.

Ddr5 is coming so that mite be an option when you ready to purchase.

I will likely be waiting for that, probably overkill tho, but guess depends on price
