This is such a stupid choice of parts. #1 The X99 platform, there is both the x299, and the Xeon platform which would be more suitable. #2 The Corsair H100i, which should be at least the H115i or preferably an NZXT or EVGA CLC 280 cooler, both of which are significantly better and quieter. #3 the RAM should be ECC in a workstation build, further pointing towards Xeon/Epyc as a platform base rather than x99. #4 The PSU in a £17k build should be as good as possible, ie a titanium rated one such as the Corsair AXi 1500 or Silverstone Prime Titanium 1000, as saving £50 on installing a platinum PSU doesn’t make sense at this budget. #5 I really think that while the 960 evo is great, in a *17k* build, the pro is a much more sensible option, also 250gb is pathetic.
I see so much of these high end builds, which aren’t really thought through, when they really should be, if made by a professional company. Of course this PC is still *good*, as the components are excellent, but it is not *great* because the components are not appropriate for the budget and use scenario.
Edit, it’s a flipping 18k build and they’re using an out of date platform as a base and sub ideal components… wow.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Never said you didn’t… I was merely (and brazenly) directing you towards another article I wrote! ?
Dainel. Fuck if ever there was an elitist you made the dictionary definition. Kick the hell back dude. You’re in the Metaverse.
