I'm looking at retiring my old x58 build as the hardware appears to finally be on the way out (2 of the 3 ssds routinely disappear so maybe a controller issue on the mobo).
It's lasted 5 years with a couple of gfx card refreshes and I'm hoping to build a similar platform to last the next 3-5 years.
I've tied with lots of different build but just can't decide on specifics so looking for some suggestions. Really after quality components, known for reliability & stability. I want as few issues with this build as possible.
Preferred chipset is x99 to take advantage of any support for multiple cores in future games.
It needs to drive a 4k monitor at 'reasonable' frame rates (note that I've been relatively happy with the performance of an 8gb 290x so SLI isn't a hard requirement.
Budget is approx £1500
Monitor, storage, peripherals and OS are not required.
I'd like to order within next couple if days for delivery on Friday so needs to be in stock.
