Question Will this pc be able to run games at 2K/4K?

[Musamed]

I am looking to buy a new pc, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to run games at 2K/4K resolution smoothly. Also I don't know if all of these parts are compatible.
Here is the link to the pc: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/r3VwTB

You have a 1080p monitor selected?

No to 4K and 2k could be better. You would be better off going for a 9700k or Ryzen 3700x and putting the money saved into a 2080 or 2080 super.

Why are buying 1080p monitor if you wanna game at 2K/4K.

Do you need a new 2K/4K monitor or do you already have one.

 

[Musamed]

Damn. Sorry, first time actually building a pc. The monitor is 27 inches so I thought that might mean something. That's okay, I'll just take a 24 inch one. But the bigger problem is the compatibility. I'm not sure if all the parts will go together like they're supposed to lol.

You dint get the point that monitor is just Full HD resolution and not 2K or 4K as you expect. As you aim to play at higher resolution of 2K/4K that is not suitable monitor.

If you need a 2K/4K monitor we will include one in the list.

Nah, It's cool. I'll survive gaming at 1080p lol. Are there any changes you would make to the list? Btw here is the updated one.

If you wanna stick with 1080p gaming for now then this PC will give you best performance for that budget.

You can Initially run PC without activating Windows and simply activate it later.

After going back and forth a lot I've come up with this:

Do you have anything to say/add/remove etc.?

 

[King Dranzer]

Get better cooler as that will not be sufficient. If you want a good looking cooler .

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/F2rmP6/corsair-h60-2018-572-cfm-liquid-cpu-cooler-cw-9060036-ww

This will be really good. Maintains temps in check. You can mount radiator at rear as exhaust.

 

[King Dranzer]

Rest of the build is fine.

Do you think that it's a good decision to replace the SSD with a crucial mx500?
It's getting amazing reviews and it's cheaper.

You can as MX500 is very good SSD.

Are you sure about that H60 on 9900k?
At base clocks, ok. But once those cores start boosting... can that cooler really keep up?
A definite no if the OP is interested - or later takes an interest - in overclocking.

If not going to go above 5GHz then yes H60 can handle. I don't expect anything under $100 to handle 5.1GHz no air cooler no AIO.

Why do you think I should replace the monitor?

Even 144Hz is overkill. There's no need to go to a 180 or 240Hz monitor. Don't waste extra money on what the human eye can't see and most video cards can't provide you with. Those extra-high refresh numbers are nothing more than money wasted for bragging rights.

And, the 27 inch monitor from your original build will, in my opinion, be more comfortable to look at even at 1080p than the same resolution at 24 inches.

Even at 1080p, do you really feel you need 2K resolution?

 

[King Dranzer]

That is pointless to pair weaker GPU(RTX 2070 Super) with higher resolution monitor. Yes RTX 2070 Super is near to RTX 2080 performance but still RTX 2080 edges 2070 Super in demanding games.

Stick with 1080p resolution and higher refresh-rate monitor if you expect longer lasting PC without the requirement of upgrade.

Why do you think I should replace the monitor?

Because ...

27"is better than 24" (your eyes will thank you),​

1440p is better than 1080p (if graphics card can handle it),​

difference between 144Hz and 240Hz is not really humanly perceivable,​

$299.99 for better monitor is preferable to $399.00 for not so good model.​
