    PCSPECIALIST New purchase has completely mixed up Windows 11 settings menu

    Would probably be worth doing that clean install anyway, just in case - in case there any other funky unknown-about stuff going on And given its new and you probably don't have 5 thousand things installed on it yet, it should be fairly simple to sort out now anyway

    PCSPECIALIST Rakk's new machine :)

    The CPU was one of the things I actually considered the most - since the game I play is very CPU clock speed dependent (it does use the GPU but its mostly dependent on the CPU speed and always has been) and out of those CPUs mentioned and the i7 I chose these are the turbo/boost speeds...

    PCSPECIALIST Rakk's new machine :)

    Well, lets put it like this, for the last year I've been running it on a 650W supply lol and it hasn't had any issues so I would think 850W should be plenty :) Hehe, I've already put it off for long enough since my original plans for July last year, not waiting any longer, and its my birthday...

    PCSPECIALIST Rakk's new machine :)

    I've decided I'm happy with the AIO being front mounted :) And yes I was considering the H115i, but for the Z690 board only the RGB 6000 RAM can be used (PCS apparently found some issues with the smaller non-RGB 6000 RAM and the Z690) so I think it'd be front mounted anyway, so I thought I'd...

    PCSPECIALIST Why no 'hourly' option on notification emails?

    Just a query, but if its hasn't changed status what use would a notification about its status be anyway :)

    PCSPECIALIST Windows 11 CPU Not Supported

    Have you used one of those driver update tools rather than either Geforce Experience/the NVidia site and Windows Update to update your drivers? I'm asking this because someone on the discord channel has had a very similar issue and was using one of the driver update tools - which are a very...

    PCSPECIALIST Windows 11 CPU Not Supported

    There are still many using Win10 (including myself), I would expect games to still run perfectly fine on Win10, it's likely something else causing your issues. Maybe because your machine has quite old components and is struggling to run because of them, it could however be a number of different...

    PCSPECIALIST Windows Activation Failed

    Your windows key is normally stated in your PCS account on the order page, and/or on a sticker on the back on the machine - so i'd check both places

    PCSPECIALIST Hello new pc i connected the hdmi cable to my monitor no signal (i think i might need a reinstall of windows 11 were can i get a copy ?)

    Have you just received it? If so I'm wondering if the graphics card may have become dislodged in transit, or maybe when you were removing the foam packing inside the PC (not all have it but I believe most get the added packing) - either of those two can happen, and it is fairly simple to reseat...

    PCSPECIALIST Hello new pc i connected the hdmi cable to my monitor no signal (i think i might need a reinstall of windows 11 were can i get a copy ?)

    Firstly if you have a graphics card in your machine did you plug the HDMI cable from your monitor into the graphics card ports or the motherboard ports - it wont work if you use the motherboard ports, you need to use the graphics card ports If you dont know whether you have a graphics card or...

    PCSPECIALIST SATA Power cable.

    You will have to see if there are any SATA data and power cables in the machine already and if not you will need some - if it was a PCS machine all spare cables would've been provided anyway - those cables you showed are not the ones you need for it As said since its not a PCSpecialist machine...

    PCSPECIALIST A few questions regarding my new PC>

    As long as you dont damage anything in the process you can swap stuff around - with the exception of the case and/or motherboard RAM can be very finicky now-a-days, so it can be that unless its the exact same model it may not play well (ie not boot), unless yorue really really really lucky...
