Hey all,
I posted a few months back but was waiting on news on 7th gen i7 and the 1080ti. 1080ti is still a while away and I am now facing the ' your pc is below min requirements' on new games so need to move it.
Hoping for some general feedback.
I will be mainly gaming but want speedy multitasking as well as a bit of future proofing.
I have went with the new 7th gen CPU but tbh im unsure if i should go for an overclocked 6th gen as they are still performing well but again I am hoping for some of you wiser people to give me some honest feedback.
My budget is around 2k-2.2k preferred but willing to go to 2.5k if it really will be worth it.
One other thing is the case, I want a DVD drive and it seems most of the cases don't have the bay for it - hard to judge from the pictures everytime if someone could recommend a simplistic but sleek looking case that would accomodate (preferred see through side).
I am asking a lot but hopefully someone can help.
Any questions I will be happy to answer.
Put the 7th gen build I have started with.
