Hello guys, I recently started building a new gaming system. I am aiming for 4k gaming Ultra settings or maybe ultra with minor changes .
This is the first time that I will try to build the pc myself , I 've never done this before but youtube is full of How to videos , so I guess I 'll make it. I wanna make a clean and nice setup so the PC will look like a jewel in my living room.
I'm gonna write what I have already bought and what I am about to order with prices next to them. I live in Greece so prices may differ to some other countries and A LOT of hardware is not available because of the corona.
The games I am playing are not the newest and "heaviest" games but I may try them in the future, you never know. Right now the games I'm playing the most are World of Warcraft (Yes It has option for 4k
) and Call of Duty Warzone and Black Ops , but after I build this system I would like to also try games like Battlefied and Red Dead Redemption.
So untill now I have bought:
Nzxt 510 Elite - 170EUR
MSI MPG B550 Gaming Plus - 150EUR ( I could have gone for something better but the budget was kinda limited when I bought these 3 and I couldn't spend more for Mobo , I have read some good and some bad reviews about this one )
Ryzen 5 5600x - 350EUR .
So I decided to go with hydro cooling , clearly for beauty reasons . I don't want a huge cooler covering/hiding everything else inside my PC.
I was about to go with Kraken M22 - 70EUR because I 've read that the hydro cooling must be on the top of the case and my case has only 1 fan slot on the top , but I was also reading that It won't be enough for my purpose.
Right now I'm about to order Kraken Z63 - 244EUR BECAUSE IT HAS AN LCD SCREEN ON IT. the thing is that it will be placed in the front panel of the case and not on top, will this be a problem? Will it be able keep cold the 5600x boosted at most of the time?
RAMS
4 modules of Trident Z Neo 32gb at 3600Mhz c16 - 250EUR , is there something else I should check? Maybe 32gb are unnecessary? Have something better in mind? but 4 rgb modules are a very nice touch inside the PC
SDD
I'm thinking of a M2 Gigabyte Aorus Gen4 1tb - 180EUR . Will I see any difference from a normal 2,5 SSD of 70-80EUR? Have something better in mind?
PSU
Seasonic Focus Plus 850 Gold ??? - 135EUR
GPU
My biggest problem. I cannot find a GPU.
I am totally going for one of the AORUS edition with the LCD screen on the side.
My budget option is 3060ti Aorus - 600+ EUR and my other option is Aorus 3080 extreme - 1000EUR.
Which one should I go for?
Will this system be able for stable 4k ???
Thank you for your time!
Merry Christmas to you all
