LxYoungAVFC Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 (edited) Hi guys After about 5 years I need a new gaming PC. At the moment I play League of Legends, CS:GO and PUBG. I am aware that the following build is overkill for these games but I plan on playing games that require a more powerful PC. I have little experience with computer hardware and would like to know your opinion on the following build: Motherboard: Gigabyte Z390 Gaming X (LGA 1151, Intel Z390, ATX) CPU: Intel Core i9-9900K (LGA 1151, 3.60GHz, Unlocked) CPU cooler: be quiet! Dark Rock Advanced C1 (16.60cm) GPU: MSI GeForce GTX 1070 Ti Gaming 8GB (this is my current GPU. Bought it a few months ago) RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws V (2x, 16GB, DDR4-3200, DIMM 288) Power: be quiet! Power Zone (850W) SSD: Crucial MX500 (1000GB, 2.5") (additionally I'll use a 1TB HDD from my current PC) Tower: be quiet! Dark Base 700 (Midi Tower, Insulated) Comments: I'm not upgrading my current PC because I could do with a second PC (for LANs). I don't want/need water cooling. It would be easy to upgrade if I change my mind. I know the GPU isn't up to par with the rest of the hardware. I plan on getting a new GPU in 1-2 years I picked a slightly cheaper motherboard (compared to the rest of the components) because the only difference I could find on the more expensive one was that it had more USB 3.0 and USB-C ports. Questions: Anything on the list that's not worth the money? Is the case big enough or do I need a big tower? Ideas for improvement? Other comments or suggestions? Thanks for your feedback! . . Edit: I posted unintentionally before I was finished Edit 2: Mods please feel free to move this to the tech section if you feel this is the wrong place to post. I don't know how to move it.

The_Rev Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 You might want to ask this on a tech forum too if you've not already done so. I'll point you to rllmuk and Reddit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
