So yeah your GPU is going to be massively hamstrung by both of those monitors, the GPU will barely break a sweat

It's like buying a Ferrari and putting wooden wheels on it, essentially you've taken the most expensive part of the build the GPU and made it close to useless by pairing it up with a monitor that's just not going to be able to display what it's capable of putting out

You need to share the config link as per the linked posts so people can edit your config as your storage isn’t really up to it.

You might want to consider your storage, would normally be better with 500GB for OS and secondary 1 or 2TB for games etc

I would honestly post you full spec as it is now with the config. link at the bottom (as detailed in earlier posts) then the guys can check for any glaring anomalies and correct before its too late

After all no point asking for advice unless you are going to take it?

if the title of the post is correct, it's already too late, as by now its probably packed and with DPD

I'm running on a tight budget though so what i have above is what i can afford, i mean £2450 is extortionate as it is

Well, as above it's probably too late now as it probably already on a carrier but from the info you have given you are probably over on CPU, certainly over on Motherboard and RAM and under on drives and PSU, you also don't need the MX4 if you have gone with Corsair cooling

As has been said if you had posted the config. link somebody with more experience than me would have made suggestions (the guys on this forum are incredibly helpful and knowledgable if given the correct info) although i think the suggestion from scratch would have been go AMD not Intel, but hey, it's your money!
