New Build Spec opinions welcome

[MikeB888]

Hey Guys

New to this forum.

First PC build after mainly being an old school console gamer.

Last pc game played was BF2142 circa 2006.

So saw pre builds at Cost Co and almost put an order in with AWD-IT that was until I saw the reviews online.

Having researched a bit i saw Chillblast and with their configurator, 5 years warranty and customer service which was spot on I have placed an order with them.

I would appreciate your opinions good or bad.

MOTHERBOARD: Gigabyte B650M AORUS ELITE AX ICE AMD Motherboard
MEMORY: Kingston FURY Beast RGB 32GB (2x 16GB) 6000MT/s
STORAGE: 2TB Kingston NV3 M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe SSD

Intentions are built for general purpose with gaming a major part (obviously) - COD / Simulation and some video editing.

I have also tried to make this aesthetically as good and not just performance.

Views and thoughts welcome.

@MikeB888

For 2700 quid you should be getting a better gpu. If I had that budget and I was a former BF player I'd be striving for frames per second. The 7800x3D isn't the first choice for video editing but it will do in a pinch ... great gaming cpu btw. I'd also be looking at a IPS monitor and a case with better cooling / airflow than what those fish tank cases offer. Call around to local PC / laptop repair shops if you don't want to build it yourself and for around 200 quid you could have them build your PC for you after you bring them the components ... this way you know exactly what you are getting.

Something like this: replace the 140mm exhaust fan that's included with this case with the 140mm ARGB fan down below for the full effect.
