Gaming PC Upgrade Time
Re Gaming PC Upgrade Time
I was thinking of upgrading my 4/5 year old 8th gen intel 1151 socket 7700k with a new motherboard with four ram slots replacing the 1650 4gig gpu with a new gpu bigger power supply a ssd when i enquired at my local computer shop they advised it would be better to get a new complete rig and they offered me £400 trade-in so i told the computer guy my budget so he sourced all the parts except a nvidia 3080 Gpu but last thursday i got a phone call telling me he had a taichi 6800 i said yes please full PC spec below im off to collect it tomorrow. XPG Battlecruiser rgb gaming case Ryzen 7 3800x 32gb 3200mhz ddr4 CL-15 memory ASRock B550 Steel legend Full ATX PCI-e 4.0 Motherboard 16gb Taichi rx6800xt OC gpu 1TB Nvme drive 4400mbps read 4000mbps write 2TB Hard Drive be-quiet 80+ gold rated 700w fully modular psu £2000 - £400 trade-in on old rig my thinking is that its a too good a offer to turn down because once Gpus are more readily available the trade-in price will drop. Once its all setup ill post some screenies
