I'm an avid PC gamer. I have been using the same gaming laptop for the past 10 years now, and well, I'm really restricted in terms of what games I can play now on it, the battery has swollen and broken the bracket holding it together, one of the hinges on the screen is broken, and frequently screws and such will fall out of it when i pick it up, it's probably time for an upgrade. My budget is around £3.9k
I'm currently using three crappy Samsung LC24F396FHUXEN Monitors (60Hz!) (which my poor laptop can barely handle) for general usage and then go down to one for gaming. But I'm planning on upgrading to Samsung Odyssey G9 C49RG90SSR 120Hz later next year.
My girlfriend is always complaining at how loud my PC is, so I hope the water cooled route will not only put a smile on my face when I look at it, but also bother her a little less than an air cooled setup.
And without further ado this is what I think makes sense (C&C would be most appreciated!):
