First gaming pc

[BigChiefMojo]

Hi Guys,

I am looking to buy a decent gaming PC capable of 4K, ray tracing and a high frame rate. I have been a console player for many years since i first played on PC and I'm completely out of touch with what I would require.

Obviously, I'm looking to buy from PC specialists, but would appreciate any help with putting my system together. All I'm aware of at the moment is that an RTX 4090 Ti graphics card is pretty good. I am looking to get a decent 4K monitor soon with high refresh rate for my Series X and PS5 and will obviously use this with my new PC, when I get it.

The PC would need to be able to connect to 1Gb/s broadband and my Xbox controller.

Can anyone recommend a good keyboard and mouse to use please?

Totally out of touch with PC gaming, but I'm looking forward to getting back into it with a good machine. I'm looking to spend around 3000 ish....

Thanks in Advance
Rick

I wouldn't recommend the 4090 with the current pricing. Sure, it's the top of the pile..... but it's £600 more than the 4080 Super.

The 4090 Ti hasn't been released yet, not even seen it announced.

If you click the above build I would drop the GPU down to the 4080 Super and pocket the money towards a good 4k monitor.
