And if I did want to buy a new GPU - even in a few years - is this motherboard likely to be up to the task. I know it's pretty much the hardest thing to replace in a system so is that something worth improving upon now? Thanks a lot!

I think I'm going to do what you said about getting the 1660 super then selling it on when I upgrade the monitor. Where's a good place to do that - ebay or something?

OK great - I'll drop the arctic paste and go with the 1660 super as well. That makes sense. Or I might even get a new monitor now and the 2060 super. Would that be well suited to a 1440p 144hz monitor? What you say about doing it all at once now is probably the best idea. Do you have a...

OK, so if over-heating is a concern, then as welel as the silver warranty would it be worth putting a noctua fan in there, too - or is the main concern going to be graphics card? Also, with regards to the GPU - if I was going to soon be upgrading to a 1440p faster refresh rate monitor would...

To be honest, I do really like the idea of it being very small, and I like that Thermaltake case too. Also, though I like the look of the Meshify it's still a 40 litre capacity object, compared to the Thermaltake being 23. When you say compromised, do you mean mainly with regards to the sound...

I'm looking for any thoughts and feedback on this spec before I go ahead with it, ideally later today - any input is appreciated. I mostly play games that aren't demanding on graphics cards, like Football Manager and EUIV, so processor, RAM and hard drives are my main performance requirements...

Could people tell me if this is any good, and what improvements I should maybe be considering. It's for daily use involving, simultaneously: word-editing, multi-tab browsing, downloading, music, Skype etc. And a game in the background.. The only game I'd really use it for is Football Manager...

A couple of things: (1) How does this spec seem, in general, given that I'll be using it for media, gaming (though not so much for the 3D graphic-hungry FPS etc) and tab-heavy internet browsing and general multi-tasking. Is it coherent? Are any elements of it under-used or not being taken...
