First build need help

Solution
Yes, that is enough for 1920x1080. In fact you could probably drop down to the GTX1070 and not really notice a difference with v-sync on.
Aside from considering a slightly larger power supply, looks good.

i7-8700k overclocked can easily pull 150W. GTX1080 is 180W stock, but closer to 225W with a standard overclock. That is 375W, and we aren't including fans, pumps, drives, motherboard, ram.

To keep the power requirements more in the middle range of the power supply, see if you can find a 650W.
 


Ok thanks! But what about cables I've heard that motherboards come with some sata cables and something else, but for the fans and everything else is there anything I need to buy?
 
Looking at PC partpicker, there appear to be no compatibility issues - https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/962wmq

Nice spec. A couple of things to consider:

That SSD is a little on the slow side, compared to other, quite affordable options, although the 500GB SSDs I favour (Crucial MX500 or Samsung 850 Evo) are perhaps twice the price. Have you considered this?

Kingston A400 250GB vs Crucial MX500 250GB - http://ssd.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Kingston-A400-240GB-vs-Crucial-MX500-250GB/3953vs3951


Secondly, I recommend a slightly more beefy 650w PSU to keep the PSU cooler and more efficient. While the likely load will be less, the potential load is over 400w, and I tend towards a 1.5x of that (so 600w/650w). Also consider fully modular, especially as with all that RGB, you'll want to minimise non-essential cables.

Also consider DDR4-3000 and DDR4-3200 if the price isn't much different. The 2666 RAM is fine though.
 


The motherboard box should have all the cables you need to connect drives.

Fans will have cables attached to them, and should come with screws or rubber mounting thingies (I have no idea what they are called, but you pull them through so the fan is isolated from the case to reduce vibrations). Now, if they are long enough is another matter, but not the end of the world if you have to order some extensions later on.

The case will have the cables for the front I/O attached to it. The case will come with screws and standoffs (if needed) for installing drives.

Power supply will have all the cables for powering the motherboard, GPU, drives, and accessories.
 


Alright, there is just one prob now, we are little over budget now, but that's ok because I'm planning to buy this in may where we have something called konfirmation (dont know if you have it) and you get a LOT of money at "konfirmation" and with the new 2080, 2070 and 2080 ti coming out I will hope that some of this well be on sale or the gpu will be a bit cheapeR. But still thanks for helping!
 


Alrighty! Thanks so all maybe have to order is some extension cables (what are those called?) and that's it?
Btw does the spec omega work with all my components?

Sry for asking too much
Thanks for the answer!
 
3 or 4-pin fan extensions, depending on if your fans are 3-pin or 4-pin.

If you aren't purchasing until May this will be all very much out of date advice. By then there should be new CPUs from Intel, New GPUs from Nvidia (supposed to be GTX2060 I believe), new GPUs from AMD (They claim mid-range cards with GTX1080 performance)

Yes, everything appears to fit in the case:

So you Are saying that this will be like a 1060 build today at that time? 🙁
 
No? It will have whatever performance then that it would have now. Just that on a performance/cost measurement it would likely be silly to buy this setup in May of 2019. Unless by some miracle all the parts in this list are discounted.

In May my intuition says that we will likely be pushing an i7-9700k as an all around gaming CPU. Depending on how the RTX2070 pans out, it remains to be seen if that will be a decent budget option over a GTX1080 (The raw numbers put them pretty close to each other if we assume a 25% architecture advantage)

And stock of Pascal cards may diminish to the point that prices will rise again, making the RTX2070 the more economical option. The aforementioned GTX2060 will be a new piece of Turing silicon. Not sure how big Nvidia will make it. They may hold out until AMD releases their Navi GPUs and place it in the market specifically to compete. Which could drive prices a lot lower in the mid-range.

When you compare that to the games you are likely to play, you may not need a high end GPU like the GTX1080 if the GTX2060 will get you above 60 FPS in all your titles. AMD is looking at a process node shrink to 7nm in the near future. Nvidia has already kind of already fired its guns by releasing on the 12nm process their new flagships. Even releasing the Titan/Ti card way early. Typically it would have been 1080/Titan/1080Ti. There is talk of no Titan for this generation (though I suspect we'll see one just after the first wave of 2080Ti are sold)

If they decide to prototype the new process node with a smaller piece of silicon (typically the 60 series cards are half the size of the 80 series cards) (Which they have done before putting the 750Ti on a new process node before releasing the 900 series cards.) That could see the 2060 having more perf/watt than anything else from Nvidia. Not like AMD and Nvidia chips aren't made in the same facilities, so as soon as AMD has access to 7nm, I'm sure Nvidia (with its greater market share) can get access to the fabs.

Suffice to say, there are a whole lot of things that could happen between now and May. It is fun to keep up with this stuff and select parts, but really the final decisions need to be made a few weeks before purchase.
 


Ok then Ill just throw this mindset out of the window and wait till its may again

Thanks for your answers
Ill just wait and see

Ok ill just wait and see, then ill buy this if nothing big happens
 




https://www.komplett.dk/wishlist/shared/67f75ae2-3297-47f1-8afd-42a7601d845d do you think this is a better solution? with maybe another cpu or motherboard at that time

 


do you think this is a better solution for the hardware that may be out at that time?
 
I don't know enough about the RTX2080 to say. They haven't really been released yet.

Nearly double the price, and that card is more aimed at 2560x1440 and 4K resolutions. So if you are looking at 1080p it would probably be a waste unless you go monitor shopping as well.
 



Ok so this Build (the 1080 one) Will still good at that time prob? Maybe with the i7 9900k or 9700k would be better?

That would entirely depend on the availability of the GTX1080 and its price relative to the price and performance of cards that we don't have benchmarks for. Given the nearly doubled price of a GTX2080, at the moment, compared to the GTX1080 it would have to be double the performance to be worth it. But then it becomes a matter of how much GPU do you need, these are high end cards for high end monitors.

Typically, Intel's prices are somewhat fixed. But they have been messing up their SKUs of late. Since the i7-9700k represents an entirely new class of CPU (8 core/8 threads), that is again, very hard to say until people start testing them. I suspect the i9-9900k will offer similar performance to the i7-8700k for games. Given the price of the i9-9900k, it may make the i7-8700k a viable option in May. Not sure about motherboard compatibility yet. I assume the Z390 chipset will still support 8th gen chips.

A GTX1080 is a very decent card. I've had one since launch, but that was basically 2 years ago. I paid $650, you can get the same card today for $515, or the cheapest GTX1080 for $450. Pascal is out of manufacture, but there is a lot of over-production to get through. This whole new pricing scheme for the RTX cards is likely the result of keeping product differentiation so the old cards can still be sold. So again, 8 or 9 months from now they may be all gone, and the ones that remain command high prices, they usually do. My hope is for a 2000 series replacement in a price bracket down. Then you can spend the excess on a monitor.

If you have a fixed budget the optimal build will change from week to week due to sales and availability. If you have a flexible budget, then you can start to look at things in terms of goal achievement. That is when you start sorting parts choice by targets like 4K @ 60hz (Or 4K @ 120hz), 3440x1440 @ 100hz, 2560x1440 @ 144/165hz. Triple screen gaming, the really wide displays (essentially dual 16:9)
 



I game on 1920-1080p with 2 monitors
And i plan to play bf5 and/or just cause 4 and Those games are the games that will require the most CPU/gpu processing power
So will 1080 (gpu) will be enough for those games?
