Another question:

Would it be worth waiting for the https://www.overclockers.co.uk/sapp...ddr5-pci-express-graphics-card-gx-37m-sp.html to come in? rather than getting the https://www.overclockers.co.uk/sapp...ddr5-pci-express-graphics-card-gx-37u-sp.html ? (sorry not sure how to do the shop/basket thingy)



Edit: Oops... I meant getting the
PowerColor Radeon RX 580 Red Dragon V2 8192MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card
or waiting for the
Sapphire Radeon RX 580 Nitro+ 8192MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card

Prob the dragon, the nitro might as well get a gtx 1070 which is a lot more powerful and not far off the the cost
 
Awesome thank you :D

Right so shopping list so far, is:
  • be quiet! Straight Power 10 - 600W
  • be quiet! SilentWings® 3 140mm (a couple)
  • be quiet! Dark Base 700 midi-tower
  • be quiet! Silent Loop Superior Liquid CPU cooler - 240mm
Then I just need to get the GFX card, may go for a GTX 1070, but not sure which one (so many different versions >.<) and I think, everything else is ok... I think!

Will look awesome and be silent ! Those silent wings are incredible and pretty much then and noctua are only fans worth having if you want the best and have the cash to pay over £8 for a fan .

Power 10 is much improved over the older 8 version since they now get FSP to built their designs .
Ive used two one Vega/Ryzen 1600 and 1070ti/i7 8700k/8400 and worked fine, even lower 500w unit powered them fine with no whine on components

As for choice of card. I'm OCD and try to keep it all one brand haha

Your left with a choice , better gtx 1070 hit prices of budget 1070 Ti...

Since he's practically upgrading almost everything, why doesn't the OP get a new CPU and mobo as well. He could sell his current lot and go a Ryzen or something. :)

She ;)

And I could... but I wouldn't know what motherboard to get if I was to get a new one or where to sell my old things.

Don't get that PSU, there are better options for much less money.

Can use the savings for a better GPU, such as GTX 1070ti.

Thank you :) I wanted that one because of the make and fan similarities with other fans but if this one is better, I'll look at that one too :)

Just find second hand i7 K for your board :)
GPU will give you the most bang for your buck but i7 will last a little longer

Oh that might be easier XD and won't have to change too much of my love for green!

bequiet unit is cooler and quieter and manufactured as seasonic rival FSP - the focus unit does come with 10 year warranty which is hard to miss .

RMA of both units is handled in Germany lol - one via bequiet and the other an electronics company - so least no shipping out of EU :D
 
 
Have thermal paste lurking already :) thanks though! I think everything else is good and I agree with Tamzzy xD the branding inverted would freak me out xD

Not sure if I'm missing something but you've spec'd a Ryzen CPU but no motherboard and no DDR 4 memory?
