No idea about EU shipping, sadly, but could you answer these questions to help us spec an appropriate system: What will it be used for? Mainly gaming? What monitor will she be using? What's the budget?

What's the budget you're working to? It would also be very useful if you could provide the green configuration link -- thanks!

Four normally on a 4090, so yes.

There's no point in getting a £4000 gaming PC and hooking it up to two 24-inch 1080p 60Hz monitors. You could spend £1300 and get precisely the same experience because the monitor is the bottleneck. I would strongly urge you to get an ultrawide, ideally the MSI MPG 341CQPX at just under £1000...

What's the PC for? What kind of games? You should definitely upgrade those displays. What kind of thing would you go for? The obvious solution is a QD-OLED ultra wide; you could use your existing displays as well if you wanted to...

No problem. I'd say the 4070 Super is enough of a step ahead that I'd choose it over the 7800 XT, yes. But both are great cards. 12GB of VRAM is plenty for 1440p still. I think you can argue this one both ways! By the way, if you're retiring an old Windows 10 PC, you could transfer the...

I would look at a monitor like the AOC Q27G4X, around £220, IPS, 170Hz and 1440p. A really good value display. You can spend a little more, maybe £280ish, and get something like the MSI MAG274QRF-QD, still about as good as an IPS display gets. Then I'd look at a PC like this, with a few tweaks...

With the extra cash from the Windows licence you can upgrade CPU and graphics card a bit and still be under £1400. Case CORSAIR 4000D AIRFLOW TEMPERED GLASS GAMING CASE Processor (CPU) AMD Ryzen 7 7700 Eight Core CPU (3.8GHz-5.3GHz/40MB CACHE/AM5) Motherboard ASUS® TUF GAMING B650-PLUS WIFI...

In every detail the build I was thinking of!

Honestly if you have a gaming PC that's only a couple of years old, and if it was well designed in the first place, it might well bear upgrading rather than replacing. Was it a PC Specialist machine? As to your build and budget, an AMD machine on the latest platform is achievable for £1400...

Depends what exact PSU @bakat98 went for, but a 650W PSU, even one that's not great quality like the CX line, will be fine with a 4070 and a 5700X. It's not a system I'd build starting from scratch, but as an upgrade it's fine.

You can upgrade your existing PC and get much better value. It's a solid enough platform. If you went for a 5700X, a 4070, a 2TB P41+ SSD and a DeepCool AK400 cooler, you would improve your performance way beyond the spec you have above, and it would cost £800ish. You could even go for a...

A bunch of things make little sense here. 64GB RAM for gaming is pointlesss. The 990 is very fast, but poor value. The cooler and fans are absurd overkill. What is your budget? What monitor do you have?

The air is going to leave the case, whether or not a rear fan is fitted. That said, the config tool won't let you add any more fans, so I'd guess it's already included. Yes, the case has three front fans, three top fans (AIO), three side fans (the extra kit on the order) and one rear fan (which...

I think the below is the build you're talking about? I can see why you'd want the LCD screen: it adds a bit of extra cabling (and possibly a controller? not sure) over the Link ones. But I can see why you might want it. As for the 4090: you're paying £150 for a bit of bling. (And do you even...

I'd get the AOC Q27G4Xv for £220ish, then a build like this: Case CORSAIR 4000D AIRFLOW TEMPERED GLASS GAMING CASE Slightly bigger and much better case Processor (CPU) AMD Ryzen 7 7700 Eight Core CPU (3.8GHz-5.3GHz/40MB CACHE/AM5) Better CPU Motherboard ASUS® TUF GAMING B650-PLUS WIFI (AM5...

Not bad but could be improved. What monitor will you be using with it?

If you want to spend hundreds of pounds on aesthetics, why not? But aesthetics is the only reason to go for the Tuf graphics card. But I don't get why you've changed to the 5000D and then chosen extra fans, or why you've gone for the 7900X3D which is literally slower in games than the 7800X3D...

Here's a build that is cheaper and as good or better in performance. The only real downgrade I've made is to the RAM: it's very questionable whether 7200MHz memory will give any performance increase over 6000MHz when using an X3D chip. But if you wanted to upgrade there's no reason not to...

A 4090 will be fine in that system. I'd get whichever one PCS sends you: they're all fundamentally the same. There is no "Geforce" 4090: that's Nvidia's generic branding that all cards come under. It'll be a Zotac or a Palit OEM card, which may have some RGB. Do you really want to spend hundreds...
