    PCSPECIALIST Spec advice: Intel or AMD?

    Hi, I just want to do a final check before I will be ordering this (hopefully) when the RTX 3070 is released on 29/10/20. I am pretty set on the components (Intel over AMD) (RTX 3070) (10700k over 7700/9900k). I just want to check that the compatibility with everything is good, usage will be for...

    Thanks, it looks like a good alternative to a more expensive intel 9700K etc, hopefully will be useful for a good few years to come!

    PCSPECIALIST Spec advice: Intel or AMD?

    Thank you, the 2070 S should be amazing on VR given that my GTX 970 already runs VR pretty well considering its age! Thank you for the rest of the advice. I'll keep the 5ghz and BT enabled wifi card as my old wifi card doesn't have Bluetooth or 5ghz and feel like I'm missing out, and I have been...

    PCSPECIALIST Spec advice: Intel or AMD?

    Hi, sorry as I'm posting twice but I'm debating whether to go intel or AMD - It seems AMD is far better pricing for gaming, are there any catches to this?

    PCSPECIALIST Suitable upgrade??

    I havent looked into AMD much at all, whats an equivalent AMD processor and why is it better? Max is probably around £1500, where it is now, and my monitor at the minute is a 1080p acer monitor @ 144hz. Also use Oculus Rift S. Maybe upgrading to a 2k monitor sometime in future, the only...

    PCSPECIALIST Suitable upgrade??

    Hi - my plan is to sell my current 5 year old PC and put the money towards a new PC Specialist build, using the pay within 12 months scheme. Just want some advice if this is a good build for compatibility and future proofing etc, any pros or cons will help! I think it's a better option for me...
