That's great, I can happily keep the sparkly stuff then! And once again, thanks for your help.

Haha cool air, not Motorsport clean air! Ok, I added RGB ram for the twinkles too, so I think I ought to go back to standard ram now so that the radiator can be top mounted. Do you think it makes more sense for the rad to be top mounted rather than keeping the RGB RAM and having PCS front...

I want what some of you guys are using to skip three days in the queue... I'm on 15 days, but could be on 18 with your time travel tokens!

Thanks for your advice @sck451 . Do you think PCS will mount the radiator in the top of the case or in the front? I presume they would mount it in the top with the fans working as an exhaust and then I would have the existing case fans both in the front pulling clean air in? Apologies if I've...

Thanks @AgentCooper for those suggestions. I have changed my case to the Meshify C, I hope I don't word this wrong but I like the more subtle, classy look? Still a a fan of twinkles though! Why is it that the liquid coolers look so awesome? Is there a good option for a liquid cooler for my...

Hi, I have a check my spec page: https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/forums/threads/1440p-144hz-first-time-custom-build-in-p-production.82448/#post-616966 I re-jigged my order as per @AgentCooper suggested, and then made some adjustments to the storage, and since then have been sitting patiently in...

@ExcelUp congratulations! I don't know if anybody else has the same problem but... I just got paid so amended my order and increased my storage. Again. Maybe it's a ploy by PCS to keep us adding to our orders!!

Well you're all ahead of me! I am only six working days in pre-production. As this is my first PC my desk is sat there with a brand new shiny monitor, mouse & keyboard... BUT NO PC!! I'm so excited I may explode before the PC makes it to building & testing. If that happens, don't tell my wife...

That's great, it was only £8 to change from an SSD to an M.2 so that was really worthwhile. I really appreciate your input and you all really know your stuff, especially on the parts prices.

I presume this is if I get a non branded M.2? The PCS branded one? The Samsung ones for example are a lot more expensive.

Thans @AgentCooper , I have amended my order in line with your suggested spec. I have however swapped the 2TB HDD for a 1TB SSD as I have an external for storing photos etc on and I think I would value the speed of the SSD over the size of the HDD especially as I am likely to be moving games to...

That's really helpful and makes a lot of sense. Thanks @AgentCooper and @sck451 for your help on this. I'll jump back on the configurator tomorrow and get my order changed. I guess I would have been disappointed with my original spec not being able to cope with 1440p. Just to add, if anyone...

Ok that makes sense, and then upgrade to another m.2 in the future as funds allow if I wanted to. If you have time please could you explain the differences in the CPU and GPU, and also the motherboard, from my spec to yours? I understand you have increased the speed of the RAM and that the...

Wow great, thank you. Do you think the lack of SSD will be prohibitive for load times etc? Or would you be storing games on the m.2 with the OS? Also, is the RTX 3070 one of the cards with the Uber long lead time?

That bad huh. This was £1850 including a monitor. Like I said I can maybe go another hundred or two BUT that is including the monitor. Mouse & keyboard are already sorted so basically it's 2k for a PC and screen

Hi all, First off, I didn't know this facility existed. If I did I would have posted up before I ordered. My order is in pre-production so i guess i have a couple of days to amend it if you guys come up with anything of deathly importance. Secondly, I'm a console gamer moving onto PC for the...
