Uses - Gaming , YouTube , monitor is 1440p 165hz. No plans to go to 4k
Max Budget - €2640
Parts to be added from previous build:
3TB HDD (Storage)
1tb Crucial SSD
1tb Intel 670 NVMe
Windows license
Usual supporting bits
Main Concerns/Queries:
Just a check to make sure I’m getting value for money.
I know the 9070xt is very close and beats the 5070ti in some games but I’ve had horrors with older AMD cards and their drivers and my last two nvidia never had any issues.
The PSU is slight overkill but I'd rather overspend on it and get a little more headroom for a mid life upgrade.
The cooler I'll have to see how it goes, if its not performing I'll order a quiet air cooler outside of PCS as they're selection is pretty poor.
