Hey there! Couple of things we could change. We'll need some info first though. What will the PC be used for? What's the budget for this PC and what monitor will it be paired with (either make and model or resolution and refresh rate would be ideal!)

Also are you particularly looking for a white case?

Hi!,
This pc will be used for gaming and for 3D modelling. I currently have a 144hz monitor and a white case would be ideal. The most I want to spend on a pc would be 3k.

Awesome, thanks for this info! What resolution is the monitor? A 1080p 144hz monitor would require quite a GPU to a 4K 144hz monitor 😂

A £3k budget deserves 1440p rather than 1080p at the very least. You should be able to achieve this and include a good 1440p monitor within the budget.

This would be my build mate with enough left over to get a proper 1440p 144Hz monitor to suit the build

Great build from @Steveyg ! To give an alternative, if you're a bit more reserved on some parts, you can very almost afford to make the jump to 4K 144hz. Decent deal on the Gigabyte M32U- from memory it's a pretty well reviewed monitor and 32" is ideal for 4K providing you can sit far enough back 😂

Case
CORSAIR iCUE 465X RGB GAMING CASE Still a solid airflow case, with arguably better fans
Processor (CPU)
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X Eight Core CPU (3.8GHz-4.7GHz/36MB CACHE/AM4) Still a monster CPU
Motherboard
ASUS® STRIX B550-F GAMING (DDR4, USB 3.2, 6Gb/s) - ARGB Ready! Will do fine handling the 5800X
Memory (RAM)
32GB Corsair VENGEANCE DDR4 3200MHz (2 x 16GB)
Graphics Card
10GB NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3080 - HDMI, DP, LHR The card you want for 4K 144hz

1st M.2 SSD Drive
500GB SAMSUNG 980 PRO M.2, PCIe NVMe (up to 6900MB/R, 5000MB/W) super fast boot SSD for windows and applications
1st M.2 SSD Drive
1TB INTEL® 670p M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD (up to 3500MB/sR | 2500MB/sW) Smaller drive for games and active modelling projects
Power Supply
CORSAIR 850W RMx SERIES™ MODULAR 80 PLUS® GOLD, ULTRA QUIET
Power Cable
1 x 1 Metre UK Power Cable (Kettle Lead)
Processor Cooling
Corsair H100i RGB PRO XT Hydro Series High Performance CPU Cooler Brilliant cooler, you'd ideally want the H115i, but this should do a good enough job.
