    PCSPECIALIST Built this PC for my dad, thoughts?

    Hey, thanks a lot for that. I didn’t see those options as I chose “Home/Office/Gaming” when I started configuring. That looks very good and I’m pretty sure he has a Windows 11 key.

    Thanks a lot for explaining all that. I did notice the bump on the GFX card. In terms of extra space, games are pretty big these days, I have a 1GB HDD from my old PC, I suppose I could format that and install it in this build? Equally, I have a blu ray/DVD drive from my old PC, so could fit...
