New PC - £1k budget

[4K8KW10]

@4K8KW10 @lee32uk , think we've all missed the "off shelf/pre-built bit" lol- have updated my recent post @thundyuk to add two from OCUK - always worth doing it yourself for getting yourself better parts- but is nice to have one built for you

I've changed my original offer. Now with an Nvidia graphics card with 5-year warranty, as per OP's request, C15 DDR4 and more:

My basket at Overclockers UK:

• 1 x AMD Ryzen 5 Six Core 1600 3.60GHz (Socket AM4) Processor - Retail= £179.99
• 1 x Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 PC4-24000C15 3000MHz Dual Channel Kit - Black (CMK16GX4M2B30= £169.99
• 1 x MSI B350M Mortar AMD 350 (Socket AM4) DDR4 Micro ATX Motherboard= £88.99
• 1 x Corsair CX550 550W 80 Plus Bronze Power Supply (CP-9020121-UK)= £57.95
• 1 x Phanteks Eclipse P300 Glass Midi Tower Case - Black= £54.95
• 1 x Zotac GeForce GTX 1060 Mini 6144MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card= £218.99
• 1 x Samsung 960 EVO Polaris 250GB M.2 2280 PCI-e 3.0 x4 NVMe Solid State Drive= £119.99
• 1 x Toshiba 2TB 7200RPM SATA 6GB/s 64MB Cache HDD - OEM (DT01ACA200)= £59.99

Total: £963.44
(includes shipping: £12.60)




Windows 10 he might find from somewhere else, but definitely not for 100 money

in theory they should be a good deal- as with all intel chips- demand will soar up the prices of the part themselves and OCUK can make the pre-builds look good, although OCUK will bin most of them for selling separately as to oppose of selling a standard i7 k

Plus the Z370 boards are kind of wasted with the 8400, waiting for H350 could be a gamble though, with prices of other components rising to swallow up the saving on the board.

looks solid- just got to be careful with ram and ryzen - granted will admit I got my 3000hz 32GB to work with Aorus k5 when it wasnt supported and still isnt without any training issues/cold boots and crashing.
mostly why Gaming 3 and Strix B350 with Vulcan memory as we know it works 90% of the time without tweaking
hopefully score lucky with corsair and get samsung die's

true- just hope they dont lock down memory speed to 2400hz - since you can get 3200 kits for the same price or sometimes cheaper haha- specially if its a nice rendering rig
