A little help with a 4k question, please?

[OJLloyd]

So it's a PC to game at 4k on this monitor: VP28UQG (yes?)

Remind us of the budget?

Morning Oussebon,

I spent last night reading up on some tech articles, and from what I can see, the AMD Ryzen 3000 CPUs are performing really well, is that right?

Am I to think that realistically I should be building a 4k system with an AMD base in it along with the 2080ti?

Look forward to hearing from ya

CHeers

The 2080 Super will make a decent fist of 4k and is £300 cheaper if that's too expensive.

Hey,

Don't apologise! I appreciate the help whenever it comes!

You've not missed anything and the price is actually fine; I've taken windows off before I have an install usb I can use from work, which brings it down a little.

I'm going to give it until next pay-day to order just because I'm worried that the cancelled finance isn't showing on my credit report yet!

Thanks for the help. The AMD processors really do seem to be doing the job in the reviews, i'm kinda glad I sent the other PC back now!
