@DarTon ,
That build is too low spec on other things, that was only put forward because of a miscommunication over the budget.
Let's focus on the build juni0r put forward
Processor (CPU)
Intel® Core™ i5 Six Core Processor i5-12600 (3.3GHz) 18MB Cache .
Motherboard
ASUS® TUF GAMING Z690-PLUS...
Hi @JUNI0R ,
First thank you for your continued help on this.
The budget is loosely £2000.
The point I was making was, the 1440p upgrade will depend on the "relative" cost. How much would the 1080p build be, then how much more (%) would the 1440p be.
The 1440p was about £1700. If the 1080p was...
With that in mind, got a couple of questions on your build
Processor (CPU)
I assume this is just Intel is rated better for games than AMD at the moment?
Motherboard
ASUS® TUF GAMING Z690-PLUS WIFI D4 (LGA1700, USB 3.2, PCIe 5.0) -
Any reason for this over one of the lower ones, this seems to...
Not so much about spending less as is the improvement worth it.
If I was to pair things back to say
Processor (CPU)
AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Six Core CPU (3.6GHz-4.2GHz/36MB CACHE/AM4)
Motherboard
ASUS® PRIME B550-PLUS (DDR4, USB 3.2, 6Gb/s) - ARGB Ready!
Memory (RAM)
16GB Corsair VENGEANCE DDR4...
Undecided on upgrading to 27" 1440p.
If I didn't and stick with 24" 1080p, do you think it makes sense to pair things back a bit?
If so w hat makes sense, move back to a 1660ti maybe? 3600 processor?
Say a £2K budget, though not so much on a budget. Happy to spend for where there's a purpose.
Not looking for 4K or anything that high end. My current rig is 6 years old so just looking to upgrade.
(Big 7 days to die player if that makes any difference)
Thoughts on new build, mostly after a sense check, make sure processor, graphics, memory, motherboard are not out of step or anything
