So I currently have an oldish system (i5 3570k, R9 280, 8GB ram, etc) - starting to show its age a little so looking to do an upgrade. The only item I'd possibly consider reusing is the PSU (Seasonic 750w X-series), but if I dont then I can potentially just have a spare PC that I could utilise or sell on.

Budget around £2k. I have been looking at the Corsair One or a Germanium build and tempted by a 1080 or a 1080Ti. Mainly for gaming, would also like to pick up a HTC Vive at some point, and it sits in the lounge so quieter and more discrete the better. One of the reasons I liked the Corsair One was the form factor is smaller and watercooled so I guess those would be on the wishlist.

Don't need a monitor, keyboard, etc, just the main box.
 
Thanks, I haven't kept up to date on what CPUs are out. I've had a look and yeah likely worth waiting for Zen+. Thanks for the advice.
