Yup I had to buy a bigger case. It's a beast, but manages over 230fps in Warzone!

7950x, 32gb DDR5 6000Mhz, Asus x670e, Gigabyte 4090 Master. Also stuck a 1600W Corsair PSU in to be safe and an NZXT Z73 AIO cooler. I'll get a photo if anybody's keen.

I need to put a new PC together, it is time now
The bits I bought off @Silent_Scone in 2017 have done the job, but I really need an upgrade now haha
i7 6850k (Broadwell-E, which is 6th gen? 13th is about to be released
) and a 1070 are definitely starting to creak
Guess I'm better off waiting a few weeks for Raptor Lake to release properly before I buy anything.. dunno when the next lot of 4XXX cards are supposed to be dropping. I'll probably go 3080 Ti/3090/3090 Ti depending on what I can find for a half decent price
Still have my Acer Predator X34a, which I'm pretty sure is also about 5 years old now. Still fine, but it'll get replaced by something 4K as I'm surprised I've lasted so long with an ultrawide given how little of the screen I actually use and now much the black bars annoy me
Probably have ~2.5k to spend not including what I'll no doubt spunk on a new monitor. Anyone got an example of a decent looking spec for the money? I'm so out of the loop its unreal

What’s it for? Gaming or video editing / graphics work etc?
Mainly gaming

They're basically the same nowadays 🤷 fast CPU, plenty of RAM, and a fast GPU with lots of VRAM, job done.

Self build? Mine cost 3k not including monitor, probably could build if for 2700£ now.

Yeh I'm waiting until an angled one becomes available
I could've gone with 1000w but there were none in stock, first world problems!
Instamoist.

I bought a 4090 because I’m an idiot. Need a block before it’ll fit
Don’t moan to me about being skint ok lad 😂
Evo 5 RS
To be fair, I sold a 3090Ti that cost me nothing so it’s not too bad 😂
Including a half decent NVME SSD that's still a 3k machine.. probably overkill for what I need too haha
I put this together looking in the back of CustomPC mag and looking at the internet 🤣
Hopefully this works..

May as well get the 3090 TI for a bawhair more:
As @N0ddie suggested, for the bit extra it's definitely worth getting the 3090ti.

6 weeks, noooo
Guessing whichever one you linked doesn't have stock anymore 😂
Not buying this week anyway
I haven't tried yet, I'll have a play around later in the week.

Horrible software that is. I done what I needed and uninstalled it straight after.
How’s it performing?

Yeh it's awful, but I haven't got any RGB showing on my gpu yet
Managed to find the panel installer software and got a different graphic showing now, but it's such a let down that there's no RGB.

Same here - more so that I'm only at 144hz anyway.
Pretty impressed with the 3070Ti as an all-rounder really.
