Want this to play Starfield mainly. And a bit of music production.

Currently running an Asrock 34" PG34WQ15R2B 3440x1440 VA 165Hz 1ms FreeSync HDR 400 Ultrawide Curved Gaming Monitor. Want to get a good quality framerate and high settings.

Budget of around £1800.

Purchasing from the UK.

Looks like a killer build. Make sure you update the firmware on the 990 pro nvme drives first thing. They have been known to fail but a recent firmware patch fixes it. Also for the ram make sure you enable xmp in bios to get the full speed. Other than that the build looks like it's going to rock. The D15 comes with a lot of mounting hardware so make sure you use the correct one for lga Intel.
