I have provisionally added this as a 'secondary' problem for the RMA the device was 'kicked in' on the PSU side with parts of the case bent so it is possible there is an internal issue. As I had to reseat the full graphics card and HYTE adapter as it had became unseated. I still have the...
Hey @SpyderTracks , just an update for you,
Sadly the computer arrived damaged so RMA is getting done. I just had a couple of questions though as I've just received my bonus from work (unexpected). I'm considering if we should return it fully and upgrade the same device to the 4090 with the...
Hey @SpyderTracks, that's me ordered!
I took your advice on the cooler and kept it all as you suggested. As I was really worried about airflow or cooling the GPU and CPU so I'm glad the suggestions will keep it cool. I did do a little Google on the 150i model and it seems it's a very close...
Thanks SpyderTracks!
I take it the cooling in this will be sufficient yeah? As on the Nova you may remember we had thermal throttling often on the Ryzen. I think on a tower thermal throttling was always by biggest fear!
Daft question but hey! Do you this this will easily be meeting the...

Hey all,
I'm here in behalf of my partner. They currently have a 4 year old Lenovo Legion 5 with 9th gen Intel and 1650 To Nvidia. Starting to bottleneck for AAA games.
I have just bought two LG Ultragear 27GP850-Bs from Currys so looking at a set up that can function for this.
Budget is...
Interesting read of all of these.
I had a similar issue with my Nova ended up RMA'ing it due to it peaking at 105 degrees during a fire strike test (max CPU temp is 95). Currently going through inspection hoping to get it back next week. I hope PCS reviews the issues I set out and can resolve...
You are able to upgrade the CPU depending on socket etc as per the above reply.
In terms of the fans, they are noisy I cannot get you a dB range as I don't have a device to judge this. However it is a desktop replacement it is expected to be loud. Also note you can run it it 'Quiet' mode from...
I haven't OC'd anything. I tried the Precision Boost Mode and put in some of the values as mentioned on another thread for TDC an EDC. Seemed a little much to fiddle with that so I didn't bother. I just set a second profile and kept everything as it was and set the Peak Core Voltage to 1.1/1.15V...

I had the same issue. Turns out they didn't install the preinstalled hardware. The driver disc that came with the laptop I booted up my old Vortex IV (with Disk Drive) and checked it out. And loan be hold there is a 'preinstalled' folder in it there was Sound Blaster 6 Cinema. There...
As it's a desktop replacement it will run the battery down very fast i.e. 1 hour if you're lucky. It should always be plugged into the Mains. I wouldn't bother getting a spare to be honest
