​

This is VERY Specific in terms of CPU asked for, storage etc.

Other than a GPU, can I improve on this?

This case, for the DVD drive
The Storage combo of Sata SSD and Backup mechanical drive
Mobo for the wifi option

Non gaming build.

They were quoted a ridiculous price for a build, so I took the same parts they quoted, to see how much it would cost. It's for a church group.

ok I'll go and tweak it. I'm more used to building with AMD than INTEL so needed more eyes. brb with tweaks....

 

[subbytna]

Psu is pretty terrible, better off going lower wattage for better unit or spending more.

I'd personally go for the B560M mortar wifi for £124.99, £15 cashback at the mo has better vrms than the TUF and with the money you save can get a much better psu.

Could save more if you're willing to use a WiFi adapter and get the B560M bazooka for just under £100 with also £15 cashback then get the newer 11700k.

Will that Mortar WIFI board handle the 10700 cpu ok?

 

[subbytna]

What are a church group doing to need a 8c/16t processor lol

They have a £25k new audio setup going in. They want a powerful PC to handle streaming and running of the audio desk and software.

Ok I've stripped out the guff

My basket at Overclockers UK:

• 1 x Intel Core i7-10700K Avengers Edition 3.8GHz (Comet Lake) Socket LGA1200 Processor - Retail= £319.99
• 1 x Corsair Carbide 200R Compact ATX Case - Black (CC-9011023-WW)= £74.99
• 1 x Team Group Vulcan Z T-Force 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 PC4-25600C16 3200MHz Dual Channel Kit - Grey= £59.99
• 1 x OcUK Value Blu-ray / DVDRW combi SATA - OEM= £62.99

Total: £529.66 (includes shipping: £11.70)
​

I need

CPU Cooler - Air
OS drive and Storage drive setup - happy to go m.2 nvme and SSD/mechanical drive if it's cheaper - 500gig and 1tb respectively
MOBO - Needs wifi, to fit in the carbide case and lets me use the m.2 nvme drive, if it's picked as OS drive
PSU to deal with GPU and the main PC - I'm thinking a 650W gold would be ok given the GPU might be a 6600 GPU for dual outputs

£350 to use roughly but could push it a little

Bare in mind, the mortar is better than the bazooka, and the bazooka is better than that TUF board you originally linked, the VRMs are brilliant.

Can't find the b560 mortar wifi on here....found the 460b wifi

 

[subbytna]

Bottom line is £900 max budget for all this (ex gpu)

Ok found the B560 Mortar wifi for £150 delivered (other site)

That's £877 all in. Any last comments then before I push this spec to them?

 

[subbytna]

Yup case allows 160mm and its 155mm

Ta

 

[subbytna]

£150 delivered? £125.99 from what you do with a barcode when you wanna buy something.. plus £150 cashback making it £110.99.

Delivery for barcode to N.Ireland makes it same as tropical, will check it out though

 

[subbytna]

Will there be bluray software included with that DVD drive? Given it's OEM?

 

[subbytna]

I would get the 11700 over the 10700k as your not overclocking as it would give you pcie4 support and you get a game bundle.

https://www.overclockers.co.uk/inte...ocket-lga1200-processor-retail-cp-697-in.html

Will that CPU work on on the mortar B560? Would I need a BIOS update? I know they are both LGA1200

I'm so out of touch with INTEL builds but they don't want AMD

 

[subbytna]

Windows license?

Sorted already ta

 

[subbytna]

No overclocking at all - No gaming at all. It'll be used to power a new audio setup and streaming setup in the church.

AV - Accessories:Video Capture Card (HDMI to USB) Video Capture Card HDMI to USB2.0 Streaming Audio Video Capture Cards 1080P Record HDMI Cam

Ok just seen this in their spec, I'll need mobo with a suitable slot to accommodate this. Might have to go full ATX then and not the Mortar.

Any good mobo's, ATX size, that will allow for the capture card and have wifi build in, and be compatible with the 11700 cpu?

 

[subbytna]

Thats a USB stick by the sounds of that?

Either way a PCIe slot be free on a mortar if the gpu doesn't exceed 2 slot.

FFS, your right it is USB doh!!!

I saw "capture card" and realised I'd forgotten to cover that...without reading the rest of the description

 

[subbytna]

I'd probably be more comfortable with an ATX board anyway for more connectivity. Any decent B560 full ATX boards that will also do wifi for the intel cpu?

Decided to stick to the B560 Mortar wifi £140 elsewhere

All in is 727.58 + 140 = £867.58


I'm still wondering if there's any Blu Ray software with that OEM - It's a concern if it doesn't.

If it doesn't (I'm checking it out) what software could I use for it? Never owned a BluRay myself before so not sure.
