Can I have feedback regarding if this is overkill. I just can’t have anything go wrong whilst playing competitive warzone. Should I make anything cheaper because there would be no difference etc…
Also I have two Ethernet cat 8 cables and my internet speed is minimum 500gbs from virgin media. I live in the heart of London Camden Town.

Yeah mate there is an awful lot to change here, it's not well balanced at all and some parts are just out of whack

For example you'd want a 7800X3D over the 7950X3D when it comes to gaming, the different in performance is marginal, the 7950X3D is just not made with gaming in mind. Then taking one of the highest end CPU's available on the market and putting it on a micro board in a mid tower case it just doesn't make sense

Using HDD's is only really for general storage you would never game off one these days, in fact pretty much every game now is made on the assumption you'll be running the game from at least a SATA SSD so you'll see terrible load times and most likely poor performance due to how textures streaming works

It's just a no build unfortunately

You will need to read this post and answer the questions for a decent build to be put together.


A budget is normally a monetary amount as well not a GPU :D

😂 I know but if you get what I mean you will understand gpu the most important for me. The rest don’t mind just if I have no problems with competitive gaming.

We’ll need the answers to the questions above before we can offer any kind of useful advice

CAT8 cables is gonna be of zero benefit for your router or your internet speeds. So we need to evaluate what you mean by "competitive", and without the requested info, it's like us asking if you like the colour of our eyes.

When you're ready and you've been through the linked threads, then come back and post something that means something.

I already have a low end pc and gonna make it strictly for streaming - intel i5 gtx 1060
Now I need a very good one for gaming. I would say my budget is £1800 and if you could help me find one that’s very cheaper that would be helpful. Also I have a iMac if I should use that for streaming instead.


I already have a 60hz monitor for streaming pc
So this is my monitor for my gaming-

ALIENWARE AW2521HFLA Full HD 24.5 240hz 1920x1080​


Sometime in the future I will be upgrading to a 27inch 1440 monitor but not now.

So the specs for the pc someone told me to go for is a ryzen 7700x3d instead of a 7950x3d because it is cheaper and mariginal differences. I definitely want a 4070 as my gpu. And someone also recommended 2x16 32gb ddr5 5600mhz as my ram. And my storage will be 1tb first ssd and second ssd 2tb.

So I will need help fitting the rest of the puzzles together. I have never been a pc guy don’t know what’s meant to go together. Please and thank you for helping
