Upgrading GPU due to stock, advice needed on rest of build please!

Hello there,

Myself and my partner ordered a custom build on here around 3 weeks ago. Due to the lack of any stock in the RTX 3000 series (we had the 3060 TI in our build) we're now thinking of upgrading to the Radeon RX 6800 to receive our order quicker.

I've posted our previous build below. Any advice on changes to make to better match the RX 6800 would be greatly appreciated (we need to keep to a budget of around £1600 with the RX 6800 included). *is the RX 6800 worth the almost £200 price increase?

Thanks for you help!

Go 3070. Also swap the board to asus tuf x570 and personally i’d look at adding a cooler master 240mm AIO.

The 3070 seems to have shorter waiting times, so if you amend your order to it, then you’ll find yourself waiting not as long as for the 3060 Ti. As Ash said, you may need a better mobo and the 5600X will require a better cooler.
