Hey everybody, I was wanting to upgrade my computer before overwatch 2 and MW2 come out to have great frames and graphics. Below is the build I put together. Most of the build I already own, only new parts I wanted to upgrade were the CPU,GPU, Motherboard and PSU. Any opinions or advice would help a lot since I have been out of the building game for a few years. If anyone has any advice on going a different route, I’d like to keep it under 2-2.5k for those 4 parts. Thanks!

potential issues

  1. the BIOS on the board might need updating to uses the processor and takes a working processor to do it.
  2. Buy a matched set of 2X16GB in one package of memory never 2 individual sets.
About 400 less and not the fans I would choose the cooler comes with ML fans going to be a problem sinking colors. I left them in it up to you. 200 bucks for 6 fans ouch!
