[DIY] Aesthetic first 2k gaming pc
It has been a year since i posted here where i was told to come back and ask again when im ready. After reading and watching so many guides and reviews I think i am finally ready for my first ever pc.
Let me used the template set up by moneyface
Main game is dota 2 and i play all AAA titles
No need keyboard and mouse
Ever since I was small I always wanted a desktop of my own but i was travelling so often that i had to get a laptop every single time. Now I think i have settled down in Singapore for at least two more years so I have decided to build me one. Thus I want it to look as aesthetically pleasing as I possibly.
That stock cpu cooler has to go. (man i hate that thing) I was contemplating on getting a aio cooler caused it looked so dam chio but u guys say its a waste of cash so air cooler it is but then the air 240 supports so little 3rd party air cooler(deepcool gabriel looked cool but it wasnt black and white)
recently moneyface bro recommended this to a fellow
Can i get something similar as the above? I saw a cpu cooler for the air240 but i dunno wat it was. will add a picture below.
Next would be monitor. I was thinking of getting the qnix qx2710. Or should i shut my pie hole and get a 27inch 1080p instead?
Will also add in custom psu cables next month
cpu cooler that i saw
my table setup currently
TLDR VERSION
need new pc 2k budget everything must be colour matching plus 300 for monitor 1440p or 1080p
thanks yall
