Hello fellow gamers ,

Looking for sub £999 spec, must be with 1070/1080 gtx. I've found on competitor site 1070 build for £760 but with only 6400 cpu which is little too short for me.

Also wouldn't mind b grade items unless someone explains what's bad about them?

Kind Regards,
Dom
 
Hello Rich,

Mainly gaming as I gave up on video editing. Mainly new gen games if any decent comes out, currently focusing on games like wow,csgo,overwatch and dying light games and waiting on bf1.

Currently I own laptop with i7 , 780m , 16gig ddr3 with 3 sets of 850 ssd pro. Razer naga mouse/beats studio/siberia v2 and 144hz monitor from acer so mainly focusing on rig.

Does 165hz monitors are a real thing btw?


Also if possible prefer those compact tiny boxlike cases rather than full towers, since new 10xx gpus are cooler than 9xx series?
 
Sweet.

Never buildt with water cooling, is it straight forward? I'm wondering also whether there is point to overclock to those high ghz on cpu since i never seen my cpus go over 40% load on any pc I had.

Is i7 worth nowadays a shot, anything good for it for multirasking or gaming wise with its hyper threading?
 
Is it even worth it 1080 over 1070 , value for performance wise?
Also what about Ram, 2400vs 3000/3200 , what benefit can we get with more powerful ram for games or nowadays its all on gpu?
 
What about branding? Theres b grade MSI armor oc 1070 or evga sc gaming acx which are much cheaper than original price but don't see why they go as high if non b grade escp
When their clock speeds are not as great. Evgas does seem to be decent oc but not armor msi or I miss something?
 
Is there point going for founders edition gtx 1080 if i can get it under 550?

Also jetstream or overclocked gpus are better than the founders editions when it comes to cooling card with air
