Hi,

I've just noticed my core PC build is now 3 years old to the date so surely that's worthy any update.

I'm looking at a budget of £1100 and would love to get some advice.

Current spec is:

Gigabyte Aorus GTX 1080 Ti 11GB
Gigabyte X99M Gaming 5 Motherboard
Intel i7 5820k
Avexir 16GB DDR4 2400Mhz
Corsair Carbide 300R Case
250GB - Samsung EVO SSD
500GB - M2 Samsung 970
2TB SATA 7200 rpm
SuperFlower FX 650W '80 Plus Bronze PSU
Dell Ultra HD 4k P2715Q 27 Screen

Thanks in advance.

Save cash , or get 100hz 1440p ultra wide G-sync screen.
Only other step would be 2080ti

Your PC is still top-whack. No need to do anything.

Ah, will hold on to my cash.

What about upgrading the ram to perhaps 32Gb and something a bit faster?

I'm also thinking about upgrading my case as it's a little tight with the GPU and sometimes the temps get around 70 and the fans get quite noisy.

That power supply is a bit meh for that spec.

What is the system used for ? If just gaming then 16GB is fine.

Thanks, I'll check on the PSU, the system is mainly used for gaming PUBG, Fortnite and the new Battlefield V when its out
