    PCSPECIALIST Gaming PC Build Spec

    Budget is 3,500. Can't add a Corsair Fan unfortunately because the case has only room for one more fan. The monitor assume it's a 4K.

    PCSPECIALIST Gaming PC Build Spec

    Hi Team I am helping a friend to configure a new gaming PC. He wants an Intel build - so I had to choose the new Intel series since the older ones are poor. Any recommendations / thoughts will be much appreciated. NVIDIA cards are all on pre-order at the moment except for 3080Ti and 3090 - so I...

    Interestingly I ordered a PC with the same case (the 5000X) and it was double boxed.

    PCSPECIALIST Should I upgrade to Windows 11?

    So I've also yet to upgrade my PC to Windows 11 yet as I am running a AMD 5900X and read that that there were issues. Just wanted to check to see if anyone has upgraded with a 5900X? I read that they've fixed the issue in the latest update.

    PCSPECIALIST The new MacBook Pro - But more importantly, the new M1 chips

    I got the 16 inch MBP and it arrived yesterday. It's a solid beast. I also have a Dell XPS17 and I must say the quality of Apple products are just exceptional compared to the Dell. It's a solid machine overall but definitely not for gaming. For that, I have my PCS desktop :-)

    PCSPECIALIST Windows Explorer Not Working At Startup

    Hi Team I've been having some random issues with my Windows Explorer (i.e., the taskbar) which freezes when I start up my PC. This means that the Start / Search button doesn't work. All my programs pinned to the taskbar will not appear etc. Is there a way to fix this? Currently, all I do is...

    PCSPECIALIST 3080 build

    Very similar to my built except I'm on the 3080 Ti and using it with Alienware AW3821DW which is the same panel as the LG minus the overclock refresh rate and it's working damn fine. You'll love your built.

    PCSPECIALIST My PC has been in pre-production for 18 working days

    To be honest, it has improved quite a lot since earlier in the year - when it used to be more than 40+ or even 50+ working days. I got mine after 25 working days but I did expect it to be longer and did ignore the standard message that says 16-19 working days. I think they just need to get rid...

    PCSPECIALIST Two quick questions prior to ordering

    I have the 5000X and I can confirm you can remove the PCS logo (which I did) very easily. I didn't even use hair dryer or anything. I just peeled it off. I also have the Corsair cooler but it has a Corsair branding on it.
