Hey everyone, long time lurker but first time poster. I've managed to fry my CPU on my 5 year old machine so was looking at doing an upgrade. I think the PCsphere has moved on a lot since then. I was running a i7 6700k with a 980ti.

Obviously as I need my PC for gaming/streaming and video editing a fried CPU isn't going to come back to life so I was looking at a pre built system and this one from OCUK caught my eye - https://www.overclockers.co.uk/ocuk-gaming-fsg-plus-1080p-1440p-pre-built-gaming-pc-fs-1d4-ep.html

Intel 10th Gen Core i5 10400F Six Core Processor
Intel Certified Cooler
MSI B460 Pro VDH WIFI Motherboard
Memory 16GB 2933MHz Dual Channel RAM
Graphics Card MSI GeForce RTX 3070 Ventus 3X OC 8GB Graphics Card
Outputs: DisplayPort x 3 (v1.4a) / HDMI 2.1 x 1
Operating System Genuine Windows 10 Home 64-Bit
Storage 500GB 2.5" SATA Solid State Drive
1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Hard Drive
USB & Audio Front/Top:
Three USB, Microphone Jack, Headphone Jack
Rear:
Six USB, 3x Audio Jack (HD Audio, 7.1 Sound)
Internet Connections Gigabit LAN Port Rear
433Mbps Wireless-AC WIFI card

Whats the thoughts on this? I was just about to upgrade to a 1440p 144hz ultrawide, but currently I just run 2 1080ps - one at 144hz for gaming. I pretty much play anything and everything, COD, Battlefield, WatchDogs, and also looking forward to CyberPunk.

Thanks in advance! :)
 
Thanks for the help so far! Not really sure what I did to the CPU, but tested all my components with my friends pc and the GFX, RAM, PSU, etc were all fine. Just the CPU.

Probably should have mentioned I do very light video editing, mainly just some travel vlogs every now and then, but thats not happening right now! Most of the time I actually use my ipad for that. Streaming wise, I mainly use an Elgato to capture console and stream using OBS. The only PC games I've streamed have been COD and Overwatch.

I have a 2tb hard drive from the old PC I can salvage for more storage space as well.
