Hi,
I'm building a pc for my kid for gaming mostly, we would like it for low level 3d design , animation and photoshop too, it won't be nothing major but I would like it to do what he needs for as long as possible without the need to upgrade too soon.
I already have some parts which are
Lian li lancool II mesh performance
GE force RTX 3070 ti I chill x4
Klevv cras X RGB 16GB (2x8gb)
WD_SN570 1TB 2280 PCIe gen3 NVMe
I've been looking at 3 different CPU builds
AMD Ryzen 5 5600x
Intel i5 12600k
Intel i7 12700k
I was aiming more towards the i7 but I'm not sure now if the parts I have will be compatible, my budget will stretch for it but it's a case of is it really justified for what I'm looking for and me working a few more shifts after the 6 weeks hols :/ and with the cost of living rising!
If it's a case of saving £300 now to cost me more later down the line it may be better to pay the extra now?
Also if I go with the 5600x I could probably get a better monitor for his gaming so would that be a factor too?
Any help and advice is much appreciated
Thanks
