I think I might need to do this next week, my ram is 2992 and should be 3200. Maybe this is correct?
So I received my PC and am over the moon! It's very quiet, fans are set to quiet currently.
I wanted to know which software I should use to monitor CPU temperature and anything else that is...
Regarding gaming and intel I think it makes a difference for pro gamers, but outside of that you won't notice the difference.
There's a few people on here with great knowledge, who are very helpful as well. What's your max budget? There's a few things to consider like new gen GPU's out this...
Do you already have the monitor? Your GPU is for 1440p gaming, but your monitor will only run 1080p.
You might be advised an AMD build as they are better in general and also for the multi-core aspect of gaming/streaming.
People will be able to advise you perfectly for your needs
You will get great advice.
Is it just for gaming or will you be using the system for anything else?
Do you have monitors already or are you looking to buy?
Most people will advise an AMD build for various reasons. Have you considered this?
There's great information in this guide, but don't...
Delivery tomorrow morning!
Thanks for all the help along the way from Scott, Spyder and nurse in particular! It was greatly appreciated. I'm very happy with my build.

You might be correct about the extra ram, but people with far superior knowledge can help there.
With the 3800x I think it's best to have a cooler, PSU might limit future upgrades and for a 500gb M2 drive the wisdom is the Samsung is faster. The firecuda is faster at 1tb+
This guide is very...
I think because the CPU is very high spec, you need better components with it for your system to run optimally. That means temperature of components and how they work with each other. I don't understand the details exactly, but that's how I understand it.
If you want that CPU it means other...
For question 1 you are definitely correct, there is no point buying a GPU that can do better than 1080p if you only have a 1080p monitor.
2.)I think the PSU will be fine
3.) You won't need extra fans, the case is important though and you might need to change this to help with airflow and...
What's your max budget?
You should be aiming for 1440p 144mhz or possibly even ultrawide. There's several people on here with extensive knowledge who can help you.
Your system is probably overpowered I think, so is mine, but you have done a good job. Your case will probably need looking at...
