Is this a good build

ChickenSalad

I found this pc from the website pixel riffs got his pc from. It has the things I want and I want to know if the build would work with a 10700k instead of 10700f cpu. Also would it be cheaper to build it myself? Are there any better parts to replace? Budget is 1800

Hey there! I don't see any link or full list of parts here. If you could provide us with a link we can help you further.

I also see that it costs around 2800 in US dollars so if you can try and bring that down to under 2000 that would be great

Good afternoon  @ChickenSalad

It is going to be hard to say for sure what can be done for a system at this price.  Looking i do not see a 10700F processor in our system.  we would only have the 10700K and then the standard 10700.  The 10700K will generally be more expensive than the 10700F as the K still has onboard graphics. If you would wanted to try to price out the build through micro center, we do have our custom pc builder tool where you can add the parts you want that we have in store..  The link for the tool is below.

Thank you, that worked.

So I went ahead and just added on some suggestions for the essentials you were missing - hard drives, Operating system, and cooling for the CPU.

Not really much to upgrade there, really all there is would be going to i9 instead of a i7,  or going to a 3090 instead of 3080, both of which would be a decent jump in price. 

ChickenSalad

So that build should be able to handle several games and be able to store them?

TSPhillipT

Yes, it will be able to play a lot of different games and store them as well!  With 2TB of HDD space and a 3080, you have a lot of power and storage there.
