New build need advice

JimCore

Hi everyone appreciate your time and advice as im a greenhorn when it comes to computer architecture and pc builds

- MSI GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Gaming X TRIO

- Intel Core I9-10900K Processor

- MSI Intel Z490-A PRO Intel 10th Gen ATX Motherboard

- Intel 660p 1TB M.2 PCIe QLC 3D QLC NVMe SSD/Solid State Drive

- MSI MAG 360mm CoreLiquid 360R ARGB Intel/AMD CPU Liquid Cooler

- DEEPCOOL DQ Series 850W 80+ Gold Full Modular Power Supply/PSU

- VENGEANCE LPX 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4 DRAM 3000MHz C15 Memory Kit - Black

(50€) - CoolerMaster Case

Thoughts on this build and a pricetag of 2300€??

Where you buying from?

Market is a total sh*tshow but that's not a bad build considering availability.

However if it's for just gaming, I'd drop the CPU all the way down to i5-10600K & get a cheaper cooler (MSI 360mm are hugely overpriced).
Or if the site offers it for same price, AMD Ryzen 5600X on B550 motherboard.

I know I looked into buying a GPU, not happening.

A friend of a friend is selling it.

If its good value Ill go for it

Is it second hand pc? Or he built it to sell?

The only option to build a full pc is, we'll, not build, but buy prebuilt. I played around on pc specialist and for 2300eu you could make 5600x, 32gb ram, 1tb m.2, 6800 xt pc.

It's not a bad pc spec wise, but I would think 2k would be a good deal. 2.3k not sure. Then again, it's an absolute Poo show right now. If you can pick it up right there, right now, then maybe 2.3k is not the worst deal.

Someone with more experience most likely give you better idea.

friend of a friend so no loyalty to me I suppose.

If you guys would sign off on the specs and that there is a degree of future proofing im happy to invest as a build would be quite difficult right now.

Him selling it to you for 2.3k - you doing him a favour.
Him selling it below 2k - more fair deal for both.

It's my personal opinion, I am no expert, as I am only coming back to building pcs after a good break and use information I learned so far and current situation. Take it for whats its worth.
