Hi,

First time buying a pc. I've had some help configuring this version but wondered if anyone had any feedback? Not sure if I'm overdoing it.

Budget around £2500. Games mainly rts, elden ring and some co-op fps like the finals. No interest VR.

Thanks!

Hi, most likely either an alienware 27 qhd (2560 x 1440) or full HD (1920 x 1080), 240 hz

Do you have either/both of them already? One is 1440p and the other is 1080p, and which one you use, will dictate what level of GPU you need.

Have the 27 qhd (2560 x 1440). Sorry didn't realise the monitor would be so important to the specs

You can get a better system for a bit less money by changing a few things around:

Case
CORSAIR 4000D RGB AIRFLOW TEMPERED GLASS GAMING CASE - Vastly superior case to the PCS one
Processor (CPU)
AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D Eight Core CPU (4.2GHz-5.0GHz/104MB w/3D V-CACHE/AM5) - The best gaming CPU on the market bar none (at least until the next gen comes along of course)
Motherboard
ASUS® TUF GAMING B650-PLUS WIFI (AM5, DDR5, PCIe 4.0, Wi-Fi 6)
Memory (RAM)
32GB Corsair VENGEANCE RGB DDR5 6000MHz (2 x 16GB) - 6000MHz is the sweet spot for AM5 and you always want a pair rather than single as they work better that way
Graphics Card
16GB AMD RADEON™ RX 7900 GRE - HDMI, DP - DX® 12 - As you have no interest in VR, you can save a significant amount here (nearly £400)
Graphics Card Support Bracket
NONE (BRACKET INCLUDED AS STANDARD ON 4070 Ti / RX 7700 XT AND ABOVE)
1st M.2 SSD Drive
512GB SOLIDIGM P44 PRO GEN 4 M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD (up to 7000MB/sR, 4700MB/sW) - Much faster Windows drive
1st M.2 SSD Drive
2TB CORSAIR CORE XT MP600 NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD (up to 5000 MB/R, 4400 MB/W) - I've left these 2 in as it is £2 cheaper than getting a single 4TB drive
1st M.2 SSD Drive
2TB CORSAIR CORE XT MP600 NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD (up to 5000 MB/R, 4400 MB/W)
Power Supply
CORSAIR 1200W RMx SHIFT SERIES™ MODULAR 80 PLUS GOLD, ULTRA QUIET - The newest generation of PSU they are much more efficient. Would have preferred something slightly lower but it's all PCS do at the level needed. WIll cover you for years and any future GPU changes
Power Cable
1 x 1.5 Metre UK Power Cable (Kettle Lead, 1.0mm Core)
Processor Cooling
CORSAIR iCUE H115i ELITE CAPELLIX XT RGB High Performance CPU Cooler - You need a premium, well-known brand for optimal cooling of the 7800x3D
Thermal Paste
STANDARD THERMAL PASTE FOR SUFFICIENT COOLING
Sound Card
ONBOARD 6 CHANNEL (5.1) HIGH DEF AUDIO (AS STANDARD)
Network Card
ONBOARD 2.5Gbe LAN PORT
USB/Thunderbolt Options
MIN. 2 x USB 3.0 & 2 x USB 2.0 PORTS @ BACK PANEL + MIN. 2 FRONT PORTS

Warranty
3 Year Silver Warranty (1 Year Collect & Return, 1 Year Parts, 3 Year Labour) - An extra £5 for 11 months more of C&R is a bargain as, if a PC is going to go wrong, it's usually within the first year
