Hi All,
After being away on an iMac 27inch for ages I have decided to go back to Windows. I use my machine for all sorts including gaming and video (Handbrake) encoding etc. I am not however a high end FPS player. My stable games are World Of Warcraft, Diablo 3, XCom 2, Starcraft 2, numerous other 3D games like Doom Eternal and shooters like Wolfenstein 2.
I would like to move to Superwide and expect to game at Ultra-High settings at 3440x1440.
I am not bothered about AMD vs Intel, have no preference, but I have had bad experiences with Radeon cards so want to have Nvidia.
I also want the following:
1) SSD and HDD Raid 1 (Mirror) reliability so I have doubled up my drives.
2) Very quiet operation.
3) Very nice cooling.
4) Nice RGB options.
5) I live in Milton Keynes so Gigabyte products have an advantage for RMA
Budget is £2500'ish plus whatever OC charge to build it for me and Windows 10. I don't need Keyboard and Mouse nor any additional drives as I have a lot of external USB 3.0 drives and local NAS.
I am not sure which of the screens below is ideal.
Is there anything that would be better changed and/or altered in the below?
