A lil help

[kemo89]

Ok finally got the money for the almost all white build. a few problems 1.) I already have the Mobo so cant really change it. 2.) Wife pissed that its already over 2k$ 3.) I dont know if its better to go i7-8700k or i7-9700k on a z370 mobo. I run dual 1080p monitors and almost always game/watch movies at the same time. Any tweeks or components changes to make it better for longevity? I plan to placew the order later today and anyhelp would be great. PS. The ram is 2x16 bundle with a 500gb SSD ima run the OS on and i have another Seagate 4tb ima use for a total of 8tb.

My first impulse is to ask if your wife enjoys any aspect of PCs. If you have a tight budget you may want to consider including her desires in making her a PC as well and remember, if momma ain't happy, ain't nobody happy.

All white build? I found your GPU. http://www.galax.com/en/graphics-card/hof/galax-geforce-rtx-2080ti-hof.html May not want to tell the wife that it costs about what you already spent, though... Of course, if she complains just tell her it's white. Including the 12 layer PCB, with LCD display. The Hall Of Fame cards are built like a tank, too.

Nkt sure if you bought, but, youd likely want to go 8700k on z370. Unless the board is flashed already accept 9 series or you have an 8 series cpu or someplace that will flash it to the latest bios.
