    PCSPECIALIST High-end PC for gaming and 3D art

    Apologies for the late response! Thanks so much for your input, I wasn't aware of the launch of the latest range being so soon in 2025.

    PCSPECIALIST PC for a 3D Artist

    Ah ok that's good to know, haven't used M.2 drives before, little behind the curve there. Yeah I may add extra storage down the line, but I'll see how far the M.2 drives get me. As you say, probably wont need the 1000W for the storage, but it seems having a bit extra isn't too bad. It looks...

This is my first Mini-ITX PC, so I am not that experienced with the ins-and-outs of computers like these. If...
