Thoughts on my idea, looking to upgrade my current rig now, I've decided to stay on the AM4 platform and max it out rather than upgrading to next gen. Will be upgrading my PSU, CPU and GPU and a 1440p monitor but maybe later on in the year. Lets say a rough budget of £800 give or take (Same as...

Question on a new monitor, if I grab a 1440p monitor for gaming how much will the FPS drop considering I only have a RX 570. Only playing DOTA and EAFC 25. Also if I keep 2 of my 1080p monitors (both 60hz) will it overwork the GPU? Could always unplug the other 2 monitors when playing games?

I’ll have a look at prices for a new cpu and gpu while keeping the psu. In terms of swapping the pcs drive out for the WD drive would I have to repurchase windows for the WD drive as the pcs drive is my boot drive?

That clears things up for me! Really appreciate the advice. Great place to ask questions. Many Thanks!

I suppose I won't see the difference in FPS cause of the monitor. My original build was with the rx 580 which is more power hungry than the 570 thus the 550w PSU so saved a few pennies there going for the 570 and a 450w PSU. Yeah it's crazy how cheap I got it then and that was during the first...

Yeah the power supply is the issue, I wanted to see if there was any upgrades I could make without changing it. Something like an rx 6600 which has the same wattage as my rx 570. Eventually I'll upgrade the whole rig but wanted to see if I could push it out another couple years. In terms of...

Looking to upgrade my current system I've had for 5 years now, only upgrades I've done personally are faster and more ram (32GB Corsair VENGEANCE DDR4 3600MHz 4 x 8GB) and an additional M.2 drive but stupidly I only bought 512GB in storage. Still running the same GPU good old rx 570 although I...

No worries thanks for the advice I send update you on the results when I get it! Many thanks ! (y)

Also will I be able to add storage e.g another SSD later down the line?

Thanks for your reply, will this spec be suitable for 4 monitors as the GPU states Max 3 monitors. Guessing I’ll be able to use the HDMI port from the motherboard to make it 4? Many thanks.

Looking to order a build tomorrow, but i'm on a strict budget £800-£850 max. Main use will be for trading as i'm going for a 4 monitor setup hence my GPU selection but also casual gaming e.g Dota 2 and CS GO. Would an SSD drive on its own be ok? as i will be keeping most of my files on my laptop...

Lovely mate thanks for your help much appreciated!

Thanks for your help, I've gone for the 250GB SAMSUNG 970 EVO PLUS M.2 and the 1TB SEAGATE BARRACUDA SATA-III 3.5" HDD as my main storage. I've also added the case you recommended. In regards to my graphics card will I need a 2nd one as i'll be using 4 monitors as the AMD RX 580 says it...

Thanks for your reply, Very new to building my own PC so looking for some advice. I put the M.2 SSD for a faster boot up, I'm guessing I should just go for a normal HDD for my 1st storage drive? I will be connecting with a wired connection giving me up to 200 mbps but I'd like to have the...

Hi there, Can anyone give me advice on my PC build, its mainly set up for day trading the FX market as i'll have a few programs open at one time including a few browser tabs. I only really play DOTA 2 and maybe CS GO now and again so hoping this build will be enough to handle both games at...
