Used different debit card and went through instantly! Now here we wait 18-20 days. Thank you all for your input. S.

Probably - £3000+ in one transaction (adding other bits such as insurance pushed this over £3000 which might be a trigger point for them.

I'll go for that permutation. Tried to put it through online but Debit Card was refused even though I have 3x as much in my account. Need to harass my bank in the morning. Someone somewhere doesn't want me to get this bit of kit. gggggrrrrrrrr Thanks for all your help.

Hi Scott, Yet another update! Between posting the message here and now, the H115i Cooler is now out of stock (as before) but you can no longer pre-order it as was the case 2hrs ago! So it looks like the RGB version is the only option unless I go for the Noctua which has been very very...

Update Just read a post on Tom's Hardware and another which say - to use the vernacular - don't touch the RM 750. Poor components, outdated and prone to failing. Other suggestions? Hi Scott, I suppose wild does describe it but I can be a bit wild at times when I'm in the mood! ;-) Re...

Here's the Spec: Case FRACTAL DEFINE 7 BLACK QUIET MID-TOWER CASE Processor (CPU) AMD Ryzen 7 3800X Eight Core CPU (3.9GHz-4.5GHz/36MB CACHE/AM4) Motherboard ASUS® ROG STRIX X570-F GAMING (USB 3.2 Gen 2, PCIe 4.0) - RGB Ready! Memory (RAM) 32GB Corsair VENGEANCE DDR4 3200MHz (2 x 16GB) Graphics...

Thanks - "O fount of all knowledge!" Not being sarcastic - just a genuine compliment

Thanks Spydertracks, will do. Sorry to post the Monitor question in the wrong place - it was 4.04am when I wrote it!

If the alternatives for major components (eg Processor, Graphics, memory, storage) are unacceptable can you cancel your order? You may want to change your order to a company that has stock components available ..

As an aside, don't get too excited if you are thinking of putting in a Corsair Cooler which are the choice of many experts on here. Over the last few days every single spec level of their Coolers has gone OOS. ETA's mid-July to mid-August. The PC build page shows 4 of them as available but...

I'm trying to get hold of a Cooler as the last link in the build of a £2800 Ryzen Desktop. Getting hold of a modular PSU from Corsair was a nightmare as most were Out of Stock. I may have got around that by spending £207 to go for the top 1200w one!. Now to the Cooler. There is not a...

Further developments re Corsair kit. I held off going for the TXm as its semi modular and I was advised by colleagues against it rather than hold on for the RMx range. All the RMx's (and the RM750) are now Out of stock including the 1000w. The next one up that is available is the HX1200...

You lucky man, this last week I have been checking daily for any of the RMx Power Supplies and there hasn't been a single one in stock (even if showing available on the build "plan" options. I have tried all 3 of the RMx PSUs - (750, 850 and 1000) and the RM750 too. All are now out of stock...

Sounds like that's sorted. Basically, handling output from streamed HD TV services - eg Sky or Netflix. High speed sports was a confusing way of describing fast-action sports in 4K such as F1. Thanks for you input again. You've been very helpful all along.

Here we go: Case FRACTAL DEFINE 7 BLACK QUIET MID-TOWER CASE Processor (CPU) AMD Ryzen 7 3800X Eight Core CPU (3.9GHz-4.5GHz/36MB CACHE/AM4) Motherboard ASUS® ROG STRIX X570-F GAMING (USB 3.2 Gen 2, PCIe 4.0) - RGB Ready! Memory (RAM) 32GB Corsair VENGEANCE DDR4 3200MHz (2 x 16GB) Graphics Card...
