The graphics card is out of stock and it is uncertain when it will come back in stock. I have been advised via live chat to amend the card if possible, the 4GB AMD RADEON™ RX 550 has been suggested. Now, I'm in no rush to get the build and am willing to wait, but if this card will offer...

Yes I remember getting this message, I believe I switched to the SSD after seeing it but wanted to confirm that that's the case. Essentially I want a way to look into this *after* the order has been placed as I have forgotten

Hm, I'm having trouble actually finding the live chat feature (i'm using firefox). is there a link somewhere?

I had been assuming this, though just wanted to double check that I did not specify otherwise. I remember there being a checkbox for which drive I wanted to install on and I believe I checked SSD as per PCS's reccomendation, but have no way to confirm that I actually did this.

Overall very happy with my experience on PCS, but had a gentle suggestion. So I ordered a PC with an HDD and an SSD, and selected that the OS should be on the SSD (I think!). I wanted to double check that I had indeed done this, but I noticed that the drive that the OS is to be installed on is...

Does it matter whether I install the OS on the SSD or the HDD?

Sorry, I meant that all the 1650s are out of stock right now (1650 and 1650 super as well).

Thanks to all for the helpful comments. I am planning on ordering the suggested build whenever the 1650 graphics cards are back in stock (the website seems to think this will be on the 13th). By the way, does the suggested case come with the option to install an additional HDD (3.5") if needed...

I was given a suggestion by the website that the power source may not need to be 850W and a lower wattage should suffice. Is this a potential area where I can trim off some of the cost? Or does that have some impact I am not realizing?

Thanks Thanks, looks like I have my PC :)

I am not someone who needs to run the latest games on the highest possible graphics but I'd like to be able to at least run them well enough such that they look nice (for example, borderlands 3 on high graphics settings). I'm not sure what my budget should be here but ideally I'd like to stay at...

Thank you! This is perfect and more or less the type of answer I was looking for. Bang for buck is the aim instead of a fixed amount per se. I noticed that you downgraded the video card from 6GB to 4GB, is there a reason for this beyond budget? Also will 4GB still be able to run games with...

Thanks, I have looked at this thread but none of the automated builders suggested AMD. I was not sure why as I had also heard that AMD is the better bang for buck but did not have enough know-how to properly decide on a suitable processor.

I used the jargon free builder to get two builds that I have my eye set on. My main use for this pc will be working form home (for which I really only need microsoft office) and gaming. I'd like some input on of these builds will suit my purpose. I am not someone who needs to run the latest...
