I've built this.Advice needed

[elmatador]

Built this as I needed a good machine for both work (office) and good gaming capabilities. Not planning on expansion hence the micro ATX.

Should I change something or is this a good setup?

With the build fee (it can vary) it should come out to the same or under perhaps.

You can post your selection of parts in the Customer Service forum, if you can't find a pre-built you're entirely happy with. OcUK will then quote you and advise of any incompatibility or alternatives for parts not in stock, etc.

Before pulling the trigger, do you have a nice monitor already to make good use of a 1070 or 1080? And do you have Windows?

Thanks for the feedback. Ended up ordering my first choice at a good price. I do have a Samsung s27d850t monitor which I think it would be fine.

thanks again
