hello im looking to get a new gaming pc. i have about £2500 to £3000 to spend but dont want to waste any on bits/upgrades that dont add performace for the money.
i would like 32gb ram,a 2tb m.2, i prefer intel over amd plus not fussed on having all the light up bits as it will sit under my desk and only go to waste other then that im open to anything.
would appreciate any recommendations

Cool , just write make and model.

Please remove the link as its against the forum rules to link competitors of overclockers, tx

This build is where I would be investing tweaking it to your needs, overclockers will also allow changes that are not listed if you call them. I would get the psu changed to a quality psu like the corsair rm as overclockers use Kolink budget units in a lot of there pre builds.

Other than Micky's suggestion above, you can put together any components and send they to OCuk. They charge about £200 roughly to build the system for you, though that includes a 3yrs collect and return + labour warranty.
I put in a RTX 3080 in the build rather than a 3070ti, with a 360mm arctic freezer 2 aio for the roof..you can get rgb fans for £10 more but you said you weren't bothered. It the best bang for buck aio atm. Went for the 'k' version of the intel chip as same price as the 'kf' version on ocuk's website, but this has integrated graphics, so if you sell your gpu without getting another etc, at least you can still use it as a pc, and as the same price, a no brainer. Inlcuded a 2tb P5P which is gen4 and fast...it's on offer at mo, as is the 1tb @ £112.50...you could either have 2 * 1tb(one for OS, one for games) as board can take 4 nvme's, as will save a little, leave as is, or add the 1tb as your os drive, and leave the 2tb as your games drive. you'll have to add Windows 11 also..you can buy it at OCuk for £100 odd, or buy a key later cheaper

If you want to save money

1) Drop cpu to a 12600k oem version, save £115

2)Drop GPU to a 3070ti below, save £400

3) change case so something like the lianli lancool mesh2, save £45, you'll have to change the 360mm aio to a 240 as it can't support a 360mm in the top as exhaust(hence why I put the 5000x in), but £30 saving on aio

so above(parts below) will save £590, putting build £1929.81

The sabre would end up similar tbh, I just changed storage to 2tb sn850, crucial ballistix 32gb 3200 and it comes to £2156 roughly, and you'd need to swap out the psu for something like the RM850 below. Though I prefer the 5000x to the kolink case, and I prefer a 'k' to 'kf' cpu
