Hi all,
basically, I want to put together a new PC. The PC will primarily be used for work from home/office purposes, but also for gaming in my free time (I realise that the setup is overkill for the former purpose, but, I would think, necessary for the latter). In planning the setup, I have primarily used the following as a model: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/guide/jFLrxr/magnificent-intel-gamingstreaming-build. However, I have added a larger SSD (mainly so that I can fully sync my dropbox folder locally). Also, as I am based in East Asia, my local seller here had tweaked the setup as some components are not available and/or he felt that they could be replaced with something better. In any case, here are the details:
This is what things look like now:
Approximate Purchase Date: This month
Budget Range: 3000USD
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Office/Work from Home, Surfing the Internet, Gaming
Are you buying a monitor: No, current monitor is the AOC U28P2U 28" 4K IPS and I just bought a new Samsung 28" 4k monitor as a second monitor
Do you need to buy OS : No
Parts Preferences: none
Overclocking: No
SLI or Crossfire: No
Your Monitor Resolution: 4k
Why Are You Upgrading: Current PC is three years old, without a dedicated GPU and came prebuilt, which means I have to replace quite a few parts if I wish to truly upgrade it. Therefore, I am thinking I'd rather invest properly in a new PC.
Additional comments: The setup as it stands comes to 3100 USD, which is still within my budget. I had planned to keep it within 3000USD, but a bit over it is fine. It seems to be somewhat high compared to UK prices, but that might be due to my being located in East Asia. Hardware-wise, the setup looks fine to me, but before I go forward, I wanted to ask for opinions and advice here first.
Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions.
