Quick Check Before Ordering | 1440p 144hz Gaming Build

[Thrasher]

Hoping you could have a quick look over the spec below and just confirm everything looks good before I order today. Pure gaming machine with budget of £2500. Will be using an existing 1440p / 144hz monitor.
Only other requirements are that it lasts for a good few years and it reasonably quiet and as dust free as possible - the case I selected seems to fit these requirements (added the extra fan options too hoping it'll help with airflow considering the OC and 1080ti).

Any suggestions?


Cheers!

Looks fine to me. Nice build.

I am guessing you care about noise levels. The extra fans probably are not needed as the will go in the roof of the case, removing the moduvents allowing more sound to escape. Also, I would double check which 1080ti PCS are currently supplying with their PC's. If it is the FE version they can get quite noisy and it might be worht supplying your own aftermarket one.

Mate... you are sorted

 

[Thrasher]

Cheers guys. Going to order it shortly minus the extra fans. I'm not massively fussed about noise levels, but would like it to be as quiet as I can get it considering it'll be in the living room. Gone quite above my original budget, but hopefully I'll be happy with this for the next few years!

Looks super nice.

I'd 2nd what Jerpers said about the fans.

Gone quite above my original budget, but hopefully I'll be happy with this for the next few years!

You could shave £100 back off by going with the PM961 instead of the SM961. You're probably not going to notice much difference:

e.g. the scores being:
SM961 - 93,258
PM961 - 92,518
WD Blue - 45,672 (a typical mid-range sata SSD).

Obviously there are plenty of different ways to measure storage performance and the SM is a bit faster, but I'm not sure if it's £100 faster based on the above.

Sounds good. I'll may well "downgrade" to the PM961 instead. Now all I need to do is find a decent new desk to go with it!
