Morning everyone,

At last its time to upgrade my computer. The current specs are roughly i3570k, GTX 970 4gb, Cooler Master Haf X case etc

Pretty old stuff, I'm struggling to play most fps games with playable frame rates. The main games I will play playing is World War 3, Pubg and other shooter games.

The specs are mainly based off the 3XS Vengeance RTX TI as it was in their latest Custom Pc magazine.

It will be a used card.

I have also bought these to go with the new build. I haven't decided yet on the monitor or the speakers so any suggestions would greatly help.

Good choice on the mouse and headset, I have those and almost feels like cheating in FPS games. QcK Prizm mouse mat with dual surface is a sweet addition if you want to pay the premium for it.

Better designed board to a good shot/rma - bios lacks a bit behind though
better tier PSU
better designed AIO - an actual aio not clc
32GB isn't needed for Gaming just yet

damn good price on the Strix! still in warranty ? hopefully seller will cover rma for yourself :)

leaves some funds for a damn good ultra wide or 1440p G-=Sync if you havent got one

Also the other point is I would like the computer to be as silent as possible

as name implies, silent !
as cost shows- its the best at what is does. performance that is only matched by noctua and silent whilst doing it
PSU comes with free 120 unit so added another 2 to replace eisbaer fans.
can run pump 100% without hearing a sound pretty much

If I can get a 1080ti Strix for £320 I personally don't see a benefit of paying an extra £1,000 for the graphics card. As far as monitors I don't know but the maximum screen size is 27 inch.

I quite like the new phanteks case. I will consider getting the silent wings, for the water cooling unit all I really want is the best that money can buy.

the to contradict each other. difference in power is huge, also is the asking price of £650 vs £1200 :)

if your running higher res, you can also get away with running I7 9700K/ Ryzen 2700X for cheaper whilst losing only a little FPS . this help in costs also helps cover G-Sync screen which your looking at £650+

As far as monitors I honestly don't know here is an idea but I don't know if its worth the money or not.

360 aio is worth it, specially getting 5ghz all cores and not sounding like a jet, paying £100 for £100 for a product which can perform better then £165 make it an easy choice :D

have to ask about the amount of SSD drives and being in duplicate ?
