Ok, troubles in paradise again. Got a new Zotac 2060 around a week ago. Reinstalled drivers just in case and it all was ok, both fans worked fine. Pc worked without issues every day. GPU fans responded to a Zotac software and fans weren't as loud as it was with a previous GPU. However...

The lower the resolution, the more game rely on CPU, while the better the resolution, the more it needs GPU power. In your case 5600X is a very good gaming CPU and 1660 is an ok GPU. More better FPS (FPS = monitor's Hz - lower the graphic setting in game from high to medium and you'll get better...

5600X will do a good job here (y) But I'm not sure about a GPU and monitor if you want a better gaming experience. For gaming the sweet spot is 1440p 27-32 inch nowadays, 4K being premium. Myself have just a 24inch, bought last year, but already thinking it's quite small and saving for a 1440p...

Hmm... Obsidian 500D SE is a beautiful case, H115i Elite Cappelix is a beautiful AIO, but overkill for 5600X. I would probably pair it with a 5800X to give the H115i Elite Cappelix some work to do :ROFLMAO: While 5600X is perfect for gaming, 5800X is very good for simulators and strategy games...

@Scadept This is a nice and well capable build for the budget! The below is a link to a monitor I would pair it with. https://www.box.co.uk/AOC-24G2UBK-23.8-Full-HD-IPS-FreeSync-_2766293.html

Yes ;) https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/forums/threads/transferring-digital-windows-10-license-to-new-machine.77362/

Welcome ;) I don't like an idea having 22inch monitor - it's a very strange size - is there a particular reason apart the budget? (small desk etc) I'd definitely get an AOC 24G2U which is a better monitor and a standard 24inch size, which would be the smallest I would suggest to look at...

Nope, if I understood correctly, you got a warning for a poor communication and the escalation of the problem (in other words, talking to much, listening too little and still not going in to cooperative conversation). Just to point out, this forum isn't where PCS workers deal with customers...

I have noticed that people who work in any industry and having a real live experience related to that industry, often rise higher expectations thinking that standards, managing and specifics are same and universal in all of the planet. GPU is small, PC is big. Different size. Couriers may...

That's a great choice. They are quiet and cool. Its turns on only when temperatures hits higher while cheaper PSU fan runs constantly. That's just one of their advantages.

I think that would be best. PCS are amazing doing a cable management. However, it may take some time until all is done. I would suggest RMx 850W over RM 750W. RMx is slightly better quality (actually, the best from what PCS have) and 850W in case you'll need more power in future. Difference is...

I would then try to install wifi drivers manually. Usually Windows 10 installs them fine, but that's not always the case. Ideally, best is to test speeds with an ethernet cable to see if it's a hardware issue or not.

Just a thought. Make sure a PC is connected to 5 GHz wifi, not the default 2.4 GHz. Some Internet provider split them in to two different wifi instances with same passwords. Even though 5 GHz theoretically should have shorter signal distance from a modem, I found it still giving better speeds...

Oh well, happens :) Glad it's now sorted out 👍

With Irish finance these things happen. Not long time ago, if I'm not wrong, PCS wasn't even offering finance for non-UK customers. Just need to be patient ;) Finance isn't really a PCS issue, more likely was related to the finance process itself.

It could be PSU and GPU or one of these. I can't check now regarding a warning message as 450W CV is not listed, possibly out of stock or discontinued from stock as it's a very low end PSU. The thing is that you're buying a custom PC. This is why there's this forum for - to consult to everyone...

DDU possibly didn't work because of: 1. Installed antivirus - need to uninstall. 2. Working not in safe mode - OS need to be restarted to safe mode. 3. Working while a PC is online - need to completely turn off a PC access to the Internet. 4. Other things, such us, audio drivers chosen to be...

A warning message pops up before clicking to proceed for purchase. Best if you choose a Corsair RMx or at least RM series PSU, preferably 750W or above. Your CV series PSU isn't designed for gaming PC, it's more for office PC (less power hungry, as they usually have integrated or very weak GPU).

Welcome ;) Unfortunately, you need minimum of 900-1000 pounds at least to get a gaming PC with today's prices, and will most likely last one more year due to demand and supply disbalance. Best is to get a console or a used PC for now with such a budget, or safe more (with monitor would need...

When a new GPU arrives, best would be to uninstall antivirus, restart, then double check if all Win 10 updates are done, restart if any installed (sometimes requires a few restarts and would be beneficial to run Win updates after each restart), download DDU, download (but not install GPU drivers...
