Feedback on build

[spragle]

Hello,im looking for advice on a build iv put together,this will be pretty much for gaming and im wondering if iv went abit overkill,the monitors will be 1440p but havent picked them out yet so any advice on monitors would be greatly appreciated aswell.
The budget for the pc is max £2k with a £500 budget for the monitors (this can be manipulated between each other if needs be),this is just for casual gaming and any advice is greatly appreciated

Hi just a wee bump as this might have gotten missed by other forum folk.

 

[spragle]

ty for the bump and ty for advice countingdown,ill hold off for a few more opinions before making any decisions,the only prob is im going for 2 monitors and that might not leave me with enough money for 2

What do you want two monitors for? Gaming on two monitors isn't really a thing as you end up with the centre of your displays on the edge of the screens. Not ideal.

The easy alternative seems to me to be to get one display now and a second if desired later. It's the easiest upgrade you can possibly do after all!

Furthermore, the second screen won't benefit from being high refresh as @sck451 unless you're purposely having 2 different individual resolutions for different game types. 2 screens would never be gamed on at the same time, so a secondary isn't going to be running at over 60fps anyway. So you can get a bog standard display as the secondary.

i was only planning on getting 2 60hz monitors because i thought it would cause less problems between the 2,the second screen has always been used for work purposes and used to watch things when gaming but if i could just use my current crappy hp monitor without any problems in the change of resolution between the 2 screens then i suppose theres no problem just using that for the time been and like u say upgrading when i have the extra cash,it would also mean i could get a better main monitor with a higher refresh rate.
Would the 3070 ti have any problems on 144hz

ty counting down i will go with what u suggested then,ty very much for help

 

[spragle]

not sure if this is the best place to ask or if i should start another thread but would it be possible for anyone to recommend some good 1440p 144hz monitors as im struggling to find what the best ones are or what i should be looking for

£200
ViewSonic VX2718-2KPC-MHD (though I'd not go for this myself)

£300
LG 27GN800-B (probably where I'd go realistically on this list)

£350
Asus VG27AQ

£500
MSI Optix MAG274QRF-QD (undoubtedly the best, but pricey)
