Hi thread Going to buy a new rig, as my current rig has some years on it now, and it's starting to show. As I'm only looking at hardware every 4' years or so, I'm a bit out of the loop. Hoping you guys can chime in with some critique. I might be totally wrong about some parts, or some minor change can give me a boost. Also I have no idea if the vendors has new models coming out soon or the likes. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/YHFMdH What country are you in? Denmark  Do you live near Microcenter? Doesn't exist here What are you using the system for? Gaming & work(Coding) What's your budget? Whatever fits. Not looking to pay 50%+ more for 10% extra performance. If you're gaming, what is your monitor resolution / refresh rate? How fancy do you want your graphics, from “it runs” to “Ultra preset as fast as possible”? Currently I have an old AOC 21:9 34' running 3440x1440p@60Hz. After this build I will probably purchase an Odyssey G9 '49 5120x1440p(not sure exactly which model). I will be using the Odyssey primarily for gaming and the AOC as a secondary monitor. Gaming wise I am playing mostly PathOfExile & Last Epoch. However I am playing some DayZ, CS2, BG3 as well. I don't need to run everything at super-duper-ultra, but i'd like for it to run on at least 'high' settings, and I shouldn't notice framedrops og stuttering in the next 1-2 years for newer games. If you’re doing professional work, what software do you need to use? What’s your typical project size and complexity? If you use multiple pieces of software, what’s your workflow? This is what I typically have open, and can see during work or private coding. 1 VS/VS Code 1 Terminal window 2 browsers CPU wise I think I'm fine for my private coding - Not doing insane amounts of DB manipulation or number crunching. If so I'm doing it on external systems. If I had more space currently, I would have more stuff open. With the AOC as a secondary monitor, I would probably have production monitoring and Slack on the screen. NOTES: Also - Please tell me if it's totally ridicoulus to work/game on the Odyssey, and I should buy several smaller normal monitors instead. Since I am using my work laptop when working, I will need to have a switch where I can switch between my desktop connections and the laptop(2x DisplayPort, 3x USB). Any recommendations for this setup or switchtype? Do I need to buy extra cables for the PSU? Fan wise, I am thinking of mounting the radiator in the top with 2 x 120mm blowing out - 2 x 120mm in front sucking in, and 1 x 120mm in the back blowing out.

Dr. Fraiser Chain posted:Great suggestions everyone, round two: Why use a Micro board in a mid tower? That’s like a small dick in a large condom.

Might be a non-issue, but won’t the board require more cooling in itself. Putting in the same amount of components, but on a smaller footprint.
