New Build Ordered - Last Minute Check?!

Hey guys,

Completed an order for a new gaming PC, I mainly play Lost Ark / Warzone, etc, and had a budget of £2k but also a spec that it must be quiet due to gaming in the living room.

Further to that I also design and am thinking about streaming in the future.

What do you guys think to the build?

Heya! Really solid start but a few areas we could adjust here, but a question first, what monitor will the PC be used with? (either make and model or resolution and refresh rate would be ideal!) It's important to know so we can get the right GPU pairing, once we have that we'd be happy to adjust!

Hi!

It will be used with a 28" AOC monitor running at 1440p.

Thanks!

For quiet 1440p and room to make upgrades in future this would be my build mate

The Fractal Define 7 is the go to Quiet case, very good noise dampening but also not completely garbage for airflow which is hard to do

Also sured up the PSU to give you plenty of room for upgrades and to account for future power creeps. Will also run super quiet

Also allowed for two M.2 SSD's which are completely silent instead of a mechanical HDD

CPU cooler is also very quiet
