Any reason why you don't want to build yourself? Get much more for your money, better spec, faster performance - as a result last you longer :)

Something like this for example... Obviously case is your own choice.

My basket at Overclockers UK:
Total: £1,270.85 (includes shipping: £0.00)



EDIT: To prove my point, just tried spec'ing an almost identical build on a Ryzen pre-built... and it came to £1546 :p https://www.overclockers.co.uk/ocuk...onfigurator-fs-01u-tl.html#t=a5fZi,k;m)o7s2t3​

I have a carbide R500 case and decent Modular power supply and also a 1TB SSD.
Would that board be compatible with my case.
maybe get away with the MOBO, RAM,CPU and GPU.

Cheers Sparx

Yeah the Mobo is just a standard ATX size, as is your case, so will fit just fine.

What PSU and SSD do you have and how old are they? If you can get away re-using your case, PSU and SSD then you're onto a winner mate - save you a lot of pennies! :)

Also are you planning on overclocking at all? Or just leave everything @ stock?

You could then sell off your old cpu/ram/mobo bundle, to offset the cost and make it even cheaper, unless it's being re-purposed elsewhere...

Edit: Changed the mobo it's an extra ~£25 but worth it imo. But if you don't plan to overclock and don't mind the aesthetics, get the cheaper one I originally spec'd.

GPU also from a great brand and comes with 4 year warranty if you register it on Gigabyte/Aorus' website upon receipt.

How do you add case fans when using the configureator?

Thanks

Don't think you can in configurator, you'd have to drop them a ticket in Pre-Sales forum and ask when you order maybe, or put in a call to customer service when ordering.

But yes your PSU and SSD are still solid to re-use, still think you should build your own :D
