Hadron air upgrade - spec me mini itx upgrade

[233]

Hi Guys,

looking for a spec for a mini itx upgrade for my Hadron,

want something for a bit of gaming and running a plex server. so


its all going in a hadron air so case and psu are sorted (500w gold)

ideally i would like a decent bit of cpu grunt for use with plex and a reasonable gpu as i will be gaming in the living room on a 4k 55" tv although happy to run at 1080p and upscale


budget £800-850 and a preference for team red. where possible

My basket at Overclockers UK:

• 1 x Team Group Vulcan T-Force 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 PC4-24000C16 3000MHz Dual Channel Kit - Grey (TLGD416G30= £109.99
• 1 x Gigabyte B450-I AORUS PRO WIFI (Socket AM4) Mini-ITX Motherboard= £115.99
• 1 x Gigabyte Radeon RX 580 Gaming 8192MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card= £199.99
• 1 x AMD Ryzen 7 Eight Core 2700X 4.35GHz (Socket AM4) Processor - Retail= £349.99

Total: £787.06 (includes shipping: £11.10)


though, you might find going RTX 2060 would be better option if you drop to Rzen 2600/2600x .

GPU should come around £350 with performance of gtx 1070ti/ Vega 64 without needing Power upgrade to push Vega GPUs​
