Hi guys,

I just got myself a ultrawide 34inch monitor 4k resolution. Unfortunately, I'm currently in the US and I do not have a rig with me so the monitor is basically connected to my old laptop.

I'm currently considering building a new rig but would like to hear some recommendations from the pros here regarding the newer 9th gen CPU and next gen GPU. Would it be worth the wait ?

If I'm not waiting for the new releases, please recommend me a complete system. My budget is probably around 1-2k USD. The rig is mainly for games, smaller rig casing is preferred but I do not want to compromise airflow/cooling, prefer casing with good/easy cable management, hiding most of the cables, AIO cooler > air cooling, need either an integrated or PCI-E wifi adaptor (my room has suboptimal wifi signal - there's an ethernet port in case I need it, but there's extra charges and I need to call the technician from the internet provider to activate those ports).

Also, GTX 1080 like Ti is bare minimum for 4k. I'm expecting GTX 1170/2070 or GTX 1180/2080 for recommended 4k requirements. Wait for reviews and you can confirm it.

More cores and MLC SSD(if you gonna use it for scratch disk) is recommended. You might wanna wait for intel next gen first though

If Intel i9-9900K leaked benchmarks is true, its no brainer to go this path. If you cant wait, AMD Ryzen 7 2700X, 16GB RAM and Samsung 860/960 Pro SSD.

They've installed enterprise evaluation for me. Can I actually upgrade it to full version by buying Windows 10 Enterprise key from shopee? Would it work?

But I checked online for enterprise evaluation. I'm unsure what is it about. Seems complicated instead of just inserting the product key

Thats easy. Tecware Core for RM89. Better looking ones like Corsair Carbide Air 240, Obsidian 250D, Fractal Design Define Mini C, Meshify Mini C are more expensive.

Hi guys,

I would like to upgrade my current PC which is more than 6 years old.
One of the requirements is to play Monster Hunter World, not necessarily on high settings.

Should I go with this rig by Nvidia?
