Gaming, usually play grand theft auto, dead by day light, Microsoft flight sim, city skylines and others

Honestly don’t know, but I have a ASUS gaming monitor - VG289Q1A

£1,700

No preference

Ok, so that's a 4K monitor

But only 60HZ

Not sure if ray tracing is important to you, but the AMD card would give you better fps to £ ratio than the 4070 series. I've included a fast small boot drive and then the 2TB drive for your games etc.

#

Thank you so much - I can't seem to find that CPU in my dowp down list tho?

cobalt forge
#

But it's on the AM5 platform, so you'd be able to update the CPU down the line if you needed to. But if you plan on sticking with the 4K monitor (although I'd recommend a 27" 1440 165HZ monitor instead) then the GPU is where you need to be pushing the money towards

small crystal
#

is there a difference between the CPU I had selected vs the one you have?

cobalt forge
#

You had AM4, last gen platform. Like I said, I have the same 5900X, but my system is three years old...

small crystal
#

thats all I see

cobalt forge
#

You're looking at the AM4 configurator

#

Or just use the link I gave above to get the entire saved config

small crystal
#

ah so I won't be able to amend mine, will I need to cancel order and start again?

#

dont actually see an option to cancel

cobalt forge
#

Yep, easier to cancel. Drop PCS an email or ring in the morning

small crystal
#

ok, how different is yours vs mine then, like what improvements would it make?

cobalt forge
#

Better CPU, better GPU, platform longevity.

small crystal
#

ok thank you, apprecaite it

#

annoying they put that as a prebuilt one if it's that old and you've done better for same price

small crystal
#

@cobalt forge any good alternatives to 16GB AMD RADEON™ RX 7900 GRE - HDMI, DP - DX® 12, it’s not in stock and ideally needing to do fast track 1 day

Why the rush?

small crystal
#

Pc broken

#

And impatience

cobalt forge
#

Don't cut corners for the sake of a few days, you'll be using the PC for years to come, best to get it right

small crystal
#

Is there one better that’s similar in price

#

Looks like only option is 20gb and too expensive.

#

Gonna listen to your advice as much as I hate it
