BlacleyCole Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Up to now I’ve been flyin on my acre Predator laptop which has held its own. But I’m in a position to build a tower desktop to go in the pit full time.based on the conclusion of the tweaking article in pc pilot latest month. The idea system would be built around the intel i9 9900x(misprint in arrival)and the new nvidia rtx 2080 with12gb or more ram. The rest was fast ddr4ram I’m going with the best mb that supports m.2 nvme ssd drives and built in audio and GPU several slots for boards to add features etc I will add additional ssd Sara drives for app use and several Ed red 4tb HD’s for library use. The monitor will be either a acre 23 “in storage or a viewsonic 24 or 27” touchscreen also in storage at worst my Sony 24 ps3. Monitor might get used until I decide once the mount arrives.main viewing will be vr rift cv1 until the next version proves itself better. What do you guys think of this setup what would you do different? BlackeyCole 20years usaf XP-11.

Sephroth Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Honestly, the i9 is way overkill in my opinion. An i7-8700k overclocked and watercooled would get you almost the same gaming performance for a third of the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
