Hello,
I am looking to buy a new Gaming/Editing PC and went to CCL to help me build one - as I have never tried building one myself - but have found that by shopping around its a load cheaper to build myself.
Therefore, I have created a list of parts - based on those that CCL used in the build they configured for me - and wanted to ask for advise. My budget is £1500, and I have managed to find the parts below for £1277:
CPU: Intel I7 8700K
GPU: EVGA GTX 1080
M/B: Gigabyte Z370P D3
RAM: Hyper X Fury 16GB
SSD: Adata 24GB SSD
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 2GB
POWER: Cooler Master 600
COOLING:Be Quiet! Dark Rock 4
WiFi: Edimax EW-7612PIn
Could anyone please advise me on whether there are any improvements I can make to this without pushing the costs up too much?
I'm happy with the CPU, GPU and RAM - I know new GPUs are coming but I need the PC asap and this looks more than okay - but everything else I have no idea if its good or not as, compared to you lot on here, I have very little idea what I am doing.
I have also not chosen a case - the CCL build used a game master onyx, which looks terrible for cooling - so any advise here would also be great.
Thank you all in advance; I started a thread a couple of days ago and you were really helpful.
