No need to reply (it's ordered)

yeah.. I'm passing that one on to my son, he has an 8700K/1080TI system and I,m passing him my 2080TI/5950x the original system had the 3800X but I upgraded it to the 5950X

This is my build after taking the same advice you are asking for and I have ended up with this ( see below ) apart from the GPU as I have the 2080TI but that would bring your build price to about £2600 also you could ditch the windows home and buy a licence key for £30 and upgrade your GPU to...

was not going to argue with him about it... just wanted in done intime before the build, he said he would have to leave a note on the system build to tell them not to include the over clocking ..so I guess it might have something to do with finance arrangement and not canceling the order... on...

For an extra £15 or so... better get the 3800x ?

Okay just phoned up and changed the 3700x to the 3800x and took off the overclock … it cost £11 extra :) thanks Scott and Huntsman

I spoke to PC specialist about the overclocking and expressed these concerns and they told be it would be a benefit than the stock .... ( should I talk to them again)..? Yes I already bought and have the 970 pro in my PC now and will be adding it to this build when i get it..

During heavy workloads the 3800X clocks between 100 - 150 MHz higher than the 3700x, which amounts to a 2.5 - 4% frequency increase. This increased CPU power consumption by around 12%, which meant it ran a few degrees hotter, potentially making it a bit louder. For this minor performance...

Already got the 970M2 pro and its £22 extra for the overclocking … I've been in the build que for 7 days now so wont be canceling the order for £22. o_O

That's reassuring on the screen as I have already just bought that screen and have not posted to seek a review on it to see if its worth that sort of money …

Its my Last Last chance to upgrade before the build slot early next week... I use it for work/office and gaming I know the Intel i9700K out performs the AMD 3700X on pretty much every game at the moment but the system is about future proofing so in 2 years I can pop in say a 3950x and wont...
