in terms of waiting for the 50 series well chances are they maybe a hundred or 2 more expensive throwing it outside your budget so if its a strict budget i would say this is best you'll find at this moment for your money but if its loose and if necessary you would go up to lets say 2500 then i would say to wait to see what prices they announce in a weeks time. in terms of bang for the buck at this price point i would concentrate less on that but rather getting it right as you are already getting a premium high end pc

#

i have the 7800x3d and 4080 super as i got back in august before 9800x3d came out and it is very impressive at 1440p and even 4k

#

all depends on the games. what games are you planning on playing?

dull kraken Dec 30, 2024, 3:44 AM

#

Stalker 2 is my jam atm, and any new games that are going to be released, I play a lot of the forest and sons of the forest and my laptop runs ok but I want to get into 144Op and eventually when I squirrel away enough for it 4k. & I just really want to scratch the getting a High end computer itch

balmy spoke Dec 30, 2024, 3:52 AM

#

Stalker 2 should run fine on a 4080 super at 1440p high epic settings , 4k possibly fine at 4k but you may need to use dlss 3. 4k isn't really a resolution you can judge as much as its very game dependant and as new games come out they get more and more demanding and eventually top gpus drop back to 1440p gpus

dull kraken Dec 30, 2024, 3:53 AM

#

I think 1440p is where I’ll probably stay for a while I don’t go buying monitors every few years, I’m still using the 1080p one I bought 5 years ago at the moment

balmy spoke Dec 30, 2024, 3:54 AM

#

i have a 4k 160hz monitor and a 1440p 180hz monitor so i'm set for a while but with 4k i would only reccomend at 32 inch and above

dull kraken Dec 30, 2024, 3:55 AM

#

So do you think with a 1440p monitor that system you put together would last a while? I’m normally 1 generation behind every time I upgrade lmfao but it always seems to be fine for me

balmy spoke Dec 30, 2024, 3:56 AM

#

4080 super should be a 1440p gpu for a good 6 plus years. there could be games at that point that push it but dlss 3 should come to the rescue most of the time

#

if not frame gen will

dull kraken Dec 30, 2024, 3:57 AM

#

Frame gen is what’s currently making stalker 2 bareable on my laptop

#

Thank you for your time and effort by the way

balmy spoke Dec 30, 2024, 3:58 AM

#

its a lot better on 40 series gpus frame gen with dlss 3

#

no worries, the one i linked would probably be better because of the better cpu

#

if you plan on upgrading over time i would reccomend a 1000w psu

dull kraken Dec 30, 2024, 3:59 AM

#

I’m going to go with that, although I’ve got to ask is the case because it’s the cheapest or because it’s the best?

#

Do you mean change the psu to a 1000w now before buying or later?

balmy spoke Dec 30, 2024, 4:01 AM

#

now. also not the best but in terms of the cases of similar price its probably one of the best plus it comes with 3 fans included and corsair fans at that

dull kraken Dec 30, 2024, 4:03 AM

#

I’ve been wanting to get a fractal north but they only do it in white on the site from what I can see lol and it seems to be a lot more expensive than any others

balmy spoke Dec 30, 2024, 4:04 AM

#

do you mean the design define 7 xl?

#

oh nvm

#

that one with the wood

#

basically its a smaller case so the 3 fan coolers which i would reccomend for that cpu wouldn't fit in that case

dull kraken Dec 30, 2024, 4:06 AM

#

Edited: 😂 just wanted it for vanity points

cprgbglitch :tada: Congrats @dull kraken, you levelled up to 5! :tada:

balmy spoke Dec 30, 2024, 4:08 AM

#

the 2 cases i used to reccomend are no longer available as in lian li 216 lancool and o11 vision and its probably because at ces in a week new cases are being revealed from all these companies then over next few weeks and months they will appear on the website

dull kraken Dec 30, 2024, 4:10 AM

#

Thank you for the recommendation it’s been real insightful because I’d of just bought any random parts together as I’m out of touch with computer components atm 😂

#

The craziest thing is the tax! I get it’s a luxury item but damn we get taxed big

balmy spoke Dec 30, 2024, 4:11 AM

#

np, thats what this discord is for as its a lot of money and getting it right is important. also tax is just 20% like everything else

np lol

dull kraken Dec 30, 2024, 5:19 PM

#

Just to re check before I pay for the pc, you said it would be worth getting a 1000w to upgrade in the future?

#

Also is the Cyberpower branded cpu cooler good or if I can budge a couple quid would it be worth getting the Corsair one?

balmy spoke Dec 30, 2024, 6:25 PM

#

Yeah, If going corsair I would go lcd one to look nice, cpuk one is probably fine but aesthetically corsair is nice

Just bought her thx for the help

np, now its just the wait lol

dull kraken Dec 31, 2024, 1:40 AM

Did the 3 day rush

balmy spoke Dec 31, 2024, 1:42 AM

#

so probably early mid next week

dull kraken Dec 31, 2024, 1:44 AM

#

I did the weekend delivery too lol, so hopefully it comes the 11th because I’ll be away all week 😂 I was going to get it delivered to my barracks but then I realised somebody would not respect the box and it would be used as a stand for their body armour in the gatehouse until I could get to it

#

Unless if it’s 3 working day rush and the weekend delivery too would it be this Saturday?

#

Or is that entitled wishful thinking 😬

#

I know 1st is a bank holiday too tho

balmy spoke Dec 31, 2024, 1:48 AM

#

well depends on if today will be considered a full day or could just be processing period as i suspect 1st they won't be in work? so thursday friday then may go into monday to do all checks on it as just checked estimated ship date with 3 day rush and it says monday so hopefully you get it tuesday

#

if chose weekend and it ends up being weekend then it would be 11th 12th so maybe worth giving them an email if you would want week day delivery

dull kraken Dec 31, 2024, 1:53 AM

#

Nah I’d prefer the weekend to be honest I work away through the week

balmy spoke Dec 31, 2024, 1:54 AM

#

so 11th should be when it comes as probably too late for this weekend given new years day

dull kraken Jan 1, 2025, 11:58 AM

#

Im going to have to cancel because delivery isn’t gonna work 😬😂😂 probably should just sit on the money and buy a 5000 series pc at this point 😂
