I want to build a new pc as its now 8-9 years old and I cant be bothered to polish a turd, intel 4770k, 16gb of ram,

I'm completely out of the loop of what to buy but I know what I require, things that are important to me in a pc

RGB motherboard
32gb of ram don't have to be the best but RGB 3200-3600?
2x nvme m.2 slots with cooling fans, preferred, one for windows and one for a few games
4x memory slots
WIFI onboard,
Bluetooth
Onboard sound,
pcie, I don't want the 8 lanes or what ever they do, it must run at full speed
HDD 4tb for storage
My current GPU is a RX vega 64 nitro+ I intend to reuse the GPU


i have spec somes things up but not sure if I am buying right components


My basket at Overclockers UK:
Total: £2,368.67 (includes shipping: £15.90)​

Hi, that looks great... couple of tweak suggestions.
Samsung m.2 abit pricey ? ... Sabrent Rocket 1TB pcie 4.0 is £150. Couple of those and drop the HDD?
Kryonaut or posher cpu gunk?
Lovely build though, your Vega 64 is the weakest link but get why its staying ;)
 
The msi x570 tomahawk Wi-Fi will do the same as the dark hero which it adds more slots, features may come with better power phases. You should do a comparison and see if its worrh it.

M2 drives if you want pcie4 thats good but for gaming there will bs minumal diffrence in performance comoared ro a pcie3 m2. 500gb for the second m2 seems small games can fill up a drive .

Western digital sn 550 m2 pcie3 is good value at £85 for 1tb.

Case seems overkill , pricey but a quality unit not my style but if you like it.

Rgb psu the shroud on the case will cover , while a decent unit only comes with 7 year warranty while others are doing 10 year's.

Why not get an rgb case ?

RGB case dont do much for me but to have the components lit up inside would look nice, I chose that case as i liked the design and it has wireless charging and the ports are on top plus it looked like they have given the cable management a bit of thought, price is shocking though

Fair enough seen a bit of rgb and thought i would ask.


You may have to flash the bios to get the 5800x to work you can do this with the bios flashback feature on the motherboard.
