Hello, good people of level1techs forums!
It is time for me to build a new pc and i want to hear your opinions on what should i get.
My budget is looking around 1300 EUR (if we can lower the price thats even better) for both computer and monitor. My time on computer will be spent playing games and working. The goal is to run all the new games at minimum 1080p 60fps and the ones to come. For some time at least. But I will use computer for studying/working too. And mostly it will be programming and work with 3D graphics.
Overclocking?
Not sure, haven’t done it before and probably wont start now. As the pc will be running 8-12 hours a day and the room temperature in summer is crazy high.
Water-cooling ?
I dont see any reason to have water-cooling.
Work/study details.
Im currently working and doing rendering with Blender but might still pick up other softwere for rendering. But i think if im putting down 1000 EUR for a computer it should be able to run games and everything else.
I think i have gave enough information, so you can have a vision on what im doing.
=====================================================================
Ok so the PC build:
For CPU and mother board i think it has to be i7 7700k with Asus ROG Strix Z270 °F. Or Ryzen 7 1700 with Asus Prime X370 Pro. Not sure which!
For GPU i think GTX 1080 is a good pick but i dont know if i can manage to get in budget. Maybe GTX 1070 ?
If i know what motherboard,cpu and gpu i will have i think rest should be easy.
P.S As i wrote this i may have to increase my budget which i can, it just means i wont order pc now. But we might be able to push it up to 1500 EUR. But thats max
