    Gaming build

    Hello,

    I am looking at the i7-11700K. What are your recommendations for a decent mobo and cooler? Mainly using for gaming etc price isn't an issue just looking for something half-decent.

    TIA

    I would look at a Ryzen 7 5800X and unless you have a GPU already,a prebuilt system might make more sense.

    5600x or 5800x I would say, hopefully GPU's will continue to come into stock and down in price, what sort of timeline are you looking at as you could always go for an AMD APU and then get a GPU at a later date..


    Also what games are you thinking of playing and at what res?
