New build

[djsmiffy]

Hi,

I'm four or so months from the tenth anniversary of my last build. As my current rig is fast becoming obsolete, not to mention struggling to keep up with current requirements. I think it’s time to put my short arm, in my deep pocket and try to repeat the trick. Being long in the tooth, I’m not a competitive gamer, but still enjoy running around and killing things. Currently playing Starfield on the lowest settings and a lot of patience. I don’t create a lot of content but I do have hours of video and the best of intensions that I’ll find the time to get into it one day.

So I’m looking to keep my options open and a big bag of longevity. I’ve chucked a few things in the basket to start and would welcome your advice, recommendations, etc.

My basket at OcUK:

• 1 x Asus ROG Maximus Z790 Hero (LGA 1700) DDR5 ATX Motherboard (SKU: MB-6JG-AS) = £579.95
• 1 x Intel Core i9-13900K (Raptor Lake) Socket LGA1700 Processor - Retail (SKU: CP-6AZ-IN) = £569.99
• 1 x Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB 32GB (2X16GB) DDR5 PC5-52000C32 6600MHz Dual Channel Kit - Black (CMT32GX5M2X6600C32) (SKU: MY-4DY-CS) = £199.99
• 1 x Asus GeForce RTX 4090 ROG Strix OC 24GB GDDR6X PCI-Express Graphics Card (SKU: GX-48C-AS) = £1,999.99
• 1 x MSI MEG Ai1300P PCIE5 UK PSU 1300W 80 Plus Platinum Power Supply (SKU: CA-00U-MS) = £334.98
• 1 x Seagate FireCuda 520 2TB SSD PCIe Gen4 NVMe M.2 Solid State Drive (ZP2000GV3A012) (SKU: HD-3EX-SE) = £94.99
• 1 x Arctic Liquid Freezer II High Performance CPU Water Cooler - 360mm (SKU: HS-07D-AR) = £119.99
• 1 x Corsair 7000D AIRFLOW Tempered Glass Full Tower - Black (CC-9011218-WW) (SKU: CA-26A-CS) = £274.99

Total: £4,186.86 (includes delivery: £11.98)​

​

Hope some of that made sense,

Many thanks
