We love you Ukraine
I wouldn't order a default fan, they're very low quality and loud.
Review of this spec + motherboard help

You don't need the extra fan at the back, because the two fans on the AIO work as exhaust fans, and the three fans in the front will make sure there is positive air pressure anyway, so it will be pushed out of the back of the case. That will probably be quieter than adding more fans to the mix, especially the budget ones.
Good to know. Thanks!
Hi guys,
I have already posted the original spec I was going to go with to this thread and I would like to thank everyone who advise me on what I should choose. Using this, I have reconfigured the spec and would like to post it one more time just in case there are any last minute amendments I should make before going through with the purchase.
A couple of key things are:
I will be using the rig for gaming at 1080p with a 240hz monitor as I mostly play competitive games.
I would like the cost to end up less than £1.9k
Lastly, as the rtx 3070ti is defined as “not founders addition”, will it just be an rtx 3070ti of any brand? Also, what browser do you recommend?

The gpu brand is normally zotac, pallit ,gigabyte 500gb storage for a gaming drive is on the low side is my concern

Agreed, normally spec 1TB minimum
True but including a 1tb as well as the 500gb would go over my budget and I guess that storage is something that is easy to add to so it’s not the worst problem. Thanks anyway.
Ok thanks 👍
