    PCSPECIALIST NVidia 3000 series confirmed details

    I wonder what brand they'll use. Prices for the 3080 vary from £650 to £800 from the small number of sites listing prices so it isn't too bad really. I can't find prices for the brands PCS have used in the past though; Zotac or Palit. The Zotac looks very nice though, they've upped their game in...

    PCSPECIALIST Should power supply sound like this?

    Bing (just realised I'm not on Chrome) shows this on the Asus BIOS and the forum post I read said to disable ERP, C1E and EIST (Enhanced Intel Speedstep Technology)

    PCSPECIALIST Should power supply sound like this?

    It's way beyond my technical knowledge. Which brand of motherboard is it?

    PCSPECIALIST Should power supply sound like this?

    Sounds more like a capacitor - I assume it stops when the plug isn't on? I did find a post about turning power saving modes off in the BIOS - I'm wasn't even aware this was an option! Maybe look at whether these are on?

    PCSPECIALIST What is my max upgrade for myy desktop

    It has RGB so it must be! (n) Unfortunately Currys/PC World aren't the only ones preying on this part of the market. I looked at some pre-built systems from well known sites and the PSU's and Motherboards weren't listed, even on £2,000+ builds. Some would just say "B450 Motherboard". It's...

    Both of the connectors to the right of the "NODE" connector are USB - the first with the braided cable is the NZXT Hub and the second the case mounted USB ports. I have connected to my hub; Corsair Commander Pro, WiFi card and H115i, as well as a dongle for my mouse, which i could connect via...

    PCSPECIALIST No spare MoBo USB

    They're on the bottom of the Motherboard and are labeled. You have the same Motherboard as me so should look the same.

    I've just taken delivery of a 7" screen from AliExpress. I've got it set up below my monitor to display stats via Aid64 as below. I need to play around with the cooling info but it's pretty sweet.

    PCSPECIALIST RAM Temperatures

    Front and bottom are intake, top (cpu water cooler) and rear exhaust. Good shout, I'll try swapping the bottoms. Overall temps have come down but the RAM is always a notch higher than I'd like. I'm going to move the cables to the lower slot in the case to free up some space too.

    PCSPECIALIST RAM Temperatures

    My thinking was getting airflow to the GPU. I've only added the bottom two, to feed cool air directly to the GPU. I did however note on the Corsair site they show this case with the bottom fans as exhaust fans with the front 3 only as intake. Not sure what I could use to test the airflow though.

    PCSPECIALIST RAM Temperatures

    I've fitted a Corsair Commander Pro and additional intake fans today so I've been doing some temp logging, both from the components and the little temperate probe things. All is fine apart from the RAM; At idle CPU and GPU sit at about 28°c and 32°c respectively, but the RAM closer to 40°c. Is...

    PCSPECIALIST Temperatures on GPU

    I've got Arctis Pro Wireless and they're pretty good. Maybe not as good my old Sennheiser's but they're truly wireless, whereas I had to use an Astro Mixamp with the Sennheiser's. The Steelseries have loads of features too so they're perfect for gaming. There is a pair on Amazon in the Warehouse...
