New Gaming PC Build

Hey All,

I hope you're well! Decided to step back into the world of PC Gaming, which this will predominantly be used for alongside work & productivity - wondering if anyone has any suggestions, or input as to whether this will run games with no trouble (DayZ, Escape from Tarkov, COD etc) - Also looking to have this a relatively long time before needing an upgrade. Budget is £1300 give or take £50. Will be installing Windows myself & connecting 3 monitors, also wondering if this will be able to do that - 3 monitors I have are 27" 1920 x1080 FHD (https://www.laptopsdirect.co.uk/sam...7-freesync-monitor-lc27f398fwuxen/version.asp)

Thanks in advance and I appreciate the input!

Made a couple of tweaks.
5600x outperforms the 3800x in most tasks, the Zen 3 chips are absolute powerhouses.
You specified FPS titles in your post so you should be fine with 16GB of RAM, 32GB is reserved for very taxing games such as MSFS 2020.
GPU should have 3 Displayport ports.
Upped the PSU to a fully modular design which will run quieter and give you room to upgrade to 1440p and beyond in the future.

I’m not sure that gpu will be powerful enough, someone might be able to shed more light on that though.

edit: as in... 3 screens

Interesting, thanks for the input! it wouldn't be for gaming all the time but obviously wouldn't want to bottleneck anything!
