[SOLVED] Custom PC build.

Solution
The memory controller is on board the CPU. Having 4 sticks means double the power to run them. This can make achieving those higher frequencies more challenging. Both in terms of local heating and stability due to voltage sags when all the ram is written too.

Well, for an RTX2080 / RTX 2080 Super you have enough power to drive something like a 1440p 144hz panel reasonably well, or a 4K panel at 60hz with some small sacrifices in settings.

Or you could go with an 180hz or 240hz 1080p panel, depends on your preference.

If you only want 144Hz 1080p, then you can probably go with an RTX2070 Super instead.

Nothing wrong with a 1TB SSD. Only thing I have in my system. Given the size of some games these days, I enjoy the faster loader...

Yes, nothing really wrong with it. Maybe spend a little more on the monitor?

I've never been a fan of single GPU systems in Full towers, just seems like a waste of space. Mid tower is plenty and will save you quite a bit, or get you more features for the money.

You could go with 2x16GB memory instead, but if you are going for the fully populated look, I understand.

I lloked it up now and the 2x16 ram is 60€ more expensive

does it give me any advantage?

Nothing wrong with a 1TB SSD. Only thing I have in my system. Given the size of some games these days, I enjoy the faster loader times and can't bothered with prioritizing all the time. Though, for myself, I would skip the hard drive and see what a 2TB QLC SSD would cost and just pick that up... Long as it is used for limited rewrites should be fine. If you are using it as a scratch drive, a hard drive is still a good choice.

240hz options

Plenty more models than I am familiar with, I imagine a lot of them use the same LCD, so pick out one you like the look of.

1440p options:
