New build need help

[Kevin Matthews]

Hi Guys,

Looking to build a new gaming computer running everything on the highest settings near 4K if possible.. For future proof budget can be £1000 maybe £1300. Looking an AMD with a maybe 2080 super?

 

[Kevin Matthews]

Do you already have a monitor?

No mate i don't but always see offers on them and keyboard and mouse bundle.

 

[Kevin Matthews]

4k highest settings and budget of £1000-1300 are incompatible with each other.
either bump your budget up or lower your expectations.

As stated near 4K if possible mate.

 

[Kevin Matthews]

I can increase budget, was just going buy the graphics card tomorrow was looking at the super 2080 i think for £800 then rest build weekly as i get paid weekly.. Unless you can suggest a better card just as good.

4K and VR down the line if possible i know its mostly down to the the monitor etc but have 4K tv that can use lol. Just need a build that will have no issues running most games at the highest graphical detail. Just don't want to buy something which will struggle. Again thank you everyone

 

[Kevin Matthews]

@Kevin Matthews you're better off not overstretching your finances. just buy the best you can afford now. rather than some omgwtfmonster pc.
i guarantee you 2 years down the line, there'll be something better and greater.

Well that's true i suppose lol what you recommend mate,. Bit of guidence or recommendations be greatly appreciated. Be buying parts next Thursday

 

[Kevin Matthews]

That build you suggested looks promising is that RX 5700 good as Nvidia? Also the motherboard the bios issue still okay is there any alternative?

 

[Kevin Matthews]

Dont mine updating the bios as have a mate that help me in the build, also windows key i have on for my laptop already. So no need for one.. That build you posted be fine then? No need to change anything mate?

 

[Kevin Matthews]

Does look good mate, anyway can get into my basket? Or just have search for the items?

 

[Kevin Matthews]

Also do i need buy a wifi adapter separately?

 

[Kevin Matthews]

Thank you, just one more question much difference between Ryzen 5 3600 and Ryzen 7 2700?

 

[Kevin Matthews]

All

3600 has a higher single-core performance, also ram doesn't affect performance on the 3600 as much as the 2700.
Multicore-wise, 2700 is slightly faster than the 3600 (8 slower cores is better than 6 faster cores).
But for gaming, 3600 is faster, because single core performance still matters a lot.

TL;DR version: for gaming, get the 3600.

All I'll be doing is gaming, so happy with built you suggested for gaming with it be capable of mate?

 

[Kevin Matthews]

Nice, what about a PSU mate? Your a legend so helpful thank you mate

 

[Kevin Matthews]

true. better to ask a silly question than to make a silly mistake i guess...

LMAO sorry, sent my mate it and he replied about a PSU so was just making sure

had the kids all weekend whilst i let the wife build ikea furniture at 6 months pregnant - oh and paint the walls too.... I looked far worse. Apologies to anyone in Aberdeen park that had to witness myself perform CPR on a doll and my girl crash her dolls pram into a tree and then started crying doll wouldnt wake up- then chase after my son who was unleashed on his bike in public for the first time !

4k monitor - techincally 2080 rtx can do 4k but between 40-60fps, its the 2080ti that hits 60fps min

ryzen 2600 can be had for £120 and ryzen 2700 non X for £180

had to drop to ryzen 2600- to be honest at 4k- should be fine

Awh decisions, out of the three which you personally go for? Just about click the trigger for the amd rt lol

 

[Kevin Matthews]

Think first build is suitable for budget with peripherals etc.

 

[Kevin Matthews]

I don't know what go for lol have 800 now until Thursday. Was gonna order the important parts in the build lol as i said previous in no rush to get it build lol just these alternative options im doubting myself.. Is ray tracing a big notice? Also if use personally what would use do?

Thanks again

 

[Kevin Matthews]

Use can decide for me?

 

[Kevin Matthews]

2070 super build looks promising

 

[Kevin Matthews]
