I have a Benq XL2411P Monitor and as for the Gaming PC i just want something which is a beast which i can play Warzone and other games on. I'm not a really big fan of the RGB lights but i dont mind whatever tbh.
Given your budget, I’d suggest getting a monitor in there as the 1080p 144hz is quite entry level in today’s standards. But I’ll get back to that
Hey! I have soo many questions but 3 questions are on my head atm also you'll want to kill me because its probably the newbiest question you'll ever be asked.
No worries! It's what we're here for, ask away!
With PC streaming these, PC's are now so powerful, that you can generally get away with having just 1 PC to do everything. This also means you can just use software and GPU encoding for everything which will mean you won't have to buy an elgato which I thought was generally only for consoles. That said, I'm not the most knowledgable for dual system stream setups, so I'll leave that to someone else
For gaming, no. Motherboard audio is generally very good these days so I'd only suggest a sound card if you were to be doing some sort of specific audio work
The 5000X fits 10... or 13 if you want to push pull the radiator (have fans on both sides of the rad) but that's overkill and more fans = louder. The setup you have on the build I specced will be perfectly fine, you could upgrade to the Capellix H150i as it'll give better asthetics and knock off a few more degrees, but again, not necessary and I believe it's currently out of stock. If you wanted to you could add another 3 LL fans on the configurator and they'd be put somwhere in the case, but it's not totally necessary
An AIO is liquid cooling, yes. But it's a sealed unit and will need no more maintainence than a blow of air every few months. Performance wise, AIO's are so good now, custom loops (the ones with tubes everywhere) really aren't necessary for 99% of use cases, plus they add a TONNE of complexity for maintainence. For thermal paste, the Corsair AIO's come with high quality stock paste pre-applied, so the 'upgraded' stuff isn't needed.
Do you mean adding in a PCIe USB card? If so no, the motherboard will already have lots of the latest ports on it and the extra card will only add more USB's. If you do need more USB's I'd honestly recommend getting a cheap USB hub off of Amazon.
Ok so I’ve read through everything you said 3 times just to make sure
Q1: 'Capellix' is the model. it's a Corsair Capellix H150i. The CPU cooler I put in yours was the Corsair Capellix H115i which is a 2x 140mm fan radiator, aka a 280mm rad. The Corsair Capellix H150i is a 3x 120mm fan radiator, aka a 360mm rad. The suggestion was to upgrade to a Corsair Capellix H150i, but as I've noted, the H115i (which is what I suggested on my inital spec) will be more than sufficient. < I hope that's understandable, Corsair's naming system is super complicated 😂
Hey! Sorry for late response. Ok i have slightly figured it out. How long does the link last for? I am currently at work :/ (Work Sucks). Thank you for sharing your knowledge with me regarding the build
I like it a looot
PC Specialist will honour the price quoted in the link for five days after it is saved. Prices do fluctuate rapidly, especially so during these troubled times so strike whilst the iron is hot 👍Hey!

I’m sure the H150i fits on the top in this case. I’ve seen other builds with it installed like this. The 5000x is one of the few case that it works like this with.
Ah, I stand corrected. (Though I'd still stick with the H115i in terms of value for money.)
Hey! So I check out the monitor AOC CU34G2X and realised its a 34 inch. I enjoy a normal size of 24’. Is there one within this size which you would recommend ?
Size is related to resolution, so 24” is 1080p, 1440p is 27 - 32” and 4k is 27” upwards.
In terms of height, it's basically exactly the same as a 27" display, just wider. I made the switch to 27" (not ultra wide) recently and it's an amazingly better experience. I'd heartily recommend the AOC mentioned above as an amazing experience.
Ohh I see. I just really want something that would be perfect for fps games. I have tried using a big screen before but it did not suit me as I play close to the screen
Yeah, you've been playing at 1080p which is 50% less pixels than a 1440p screen, hence the fact they're larger in size. There's literally more real estate to show.
