New build to power a XR342CK 34" 3440X1440 FreeSync

I'm looking for a Overclockers build to power a:-

My budget is £1500 to £2k. I was hoping for a Vega 56 based system is there any news on a price drop ? I also couldn't find any Overclockers Vega 56 systems.

I want to use it for gaming, Visual Studio and media watching. What system would you guys go for ?

My basket at Overclockers UK:

• 1 x Samsung C34F791 34" 3440x1440 VA FREESYNC 100Hz Gaming Quantum DOT Widescreen Monitor= £719.99

Total: £732.59
(includes shipping: £12.60)




if you havent bought the monitor yet

I already have the monitor. Can I wait for AMD Vega to drops to sensible prices or should I just go Nvidia and not worry about Freesync ?!

So are you looking for a pre-built, or can you build it yourself?

I've built in the past but would prefer a pre built system with warranty.

What about the Germanium build with a Phanteks Enthoo pro case for £2300. Am I crazy to pay that ?

DIY pcs have warranty too.

I like the sounds of:-

Three Year (36 Month Collect and Return) Mainland UK

The last PC I built had some faulty ram I never sent back (totally my own fault through laziness!) and ended up saving no money by building myself.
