Thanks, that's reassuring!

Also wondering what the stock situation like is right now @ PCS. I managed to luckily source a GPU but are we in the same place for the 5900X? Was hoping to get it ordered an not have to wait 3 months for it :cool:

(y) Good spot, changed to the H115i Elite and the M.2 to the 980 Dropped the thermal paste too. Yeah I think 32GB is a bit overkill right now, but it'll give me that extra bit of headroom should I need it in future. What about the CPU though, I'm seeing comments around that the 5900X is just...

So I'm at that stage now where I think I've got all the bits I want selected, but just going over the list again and again waiting to click that Proceed button. Always the part where I start getting nervous thinking should I change this or this, ya know? How am I looking? This is around my...

Been doing some research on the recommended parts since yesterday. One thing I've just noticed after saving the build to PCPP is this note/warning... Is there a way around this? I get a bit confused with all the different USB types now to be honest. EDIT - I might just change it to the...

That sounds like a good idea actually and tbh I got a 5TB HDD in one of my old systems that's hardly filled up in 5+ years. Also got plenty of external USB ones so I might just do that.

Yeah Ryzen seems to be the way to go now so happy with that. I do like a bit of Corsair as well and having more hardware plugged into iCUE would be pretty handy I think. I'll do some reading now on your suggestions. Thanks again.

Thanks for the response. Yeah, I'll sort out Windows just fine and I was planning on trying out a powerline adapter this time instead of wifi. Spec looks nice though. Think I'll see gains with that Ryzen then? I just assumed going 12 core was a bit OTT for non-productivity use. Case looks...

Hi, Been a while since I was here, but it's that time again (not the best time admittedly) to get a new system. Just looking for a sanity check on this spec I'm thinking about. Use is for 1440p 144hz gaming primarily. Budget approx £1500 No GPU required (luckily managed to acquire a 3070...

I'm hoping the temp difference between the two cases will be minimal, I'd go with the full R5 again as it's been excellent but it just seems a bit too big for a living room machine, ya know? OK that's interesting, having used Intel CPUs for so long I guess I'm still in that mindset. I'll do...

The case I included is basically just a smaller version of what I have in my main desktop by the looks of it (the Define R5 Mid-tower) and it won't be the smallest case out there for this form factor. I don't think it should be a massive difference in airflow, but I'll look into that. I did...

Hi, I'm at it again building a new system! Last system I got from PCS is still serving me very well (i7 7700k / GTX 1080ti) but now I want one for our living room. We got an amazing 65" LG C9 TV a few months ago and eager to use this for some couch gaming. I've seen Linus testing this at...

Hi, I got my new build at the weekend and have a couple of small issues. I hope someone can point me in the right direction. 1) I cannot seem to enter the BIOS. At boot I get the PCS logo and "Press F2 or DEL to enter BIOS" but repeatedly hitting either key does nothing and the system...

Hoping you could have a quick look over the spec below and just confirm everything looks good before I order today. Pure gaming machine with budget of £2500. Will be using an existing 1440p / 144hz monitor. Only other requirements are that it lasts for a good few years and it reasonably...

I'm looking for a new gaming build roughly £1500 budget but fairly flexible. I have the 1440p ROG Swift IPS panel so need a bit of a beast to try and push 144 frames where possible on the latest titles. I have the spec below as a starting point but not sure which motherboard, RAM, and case...

Hello all - I will be placing an order for a new system either later today or tomorrow and just wanted to confirm everything should be good with the spec below. Primary use is for gaming and I had a max budget of £900-£1,000. Thanks for any feedback! Case COOLERMASTER SILEO 500 QUIET MID...

Having had some bad dealings with an organisation I used to shop with regularly I've been on the hunt for a place that can build me a rig and save me the time and hassle of doing it myself. From what I have read so far PCS seems to be highly regarded so with that said I was hoping I could ask...
