Could you share the full system spec with a config link if possible and what monitor would this system be paired with :)

I amended a few things so the config is not set up properly.

I have an Aorus KD25F 240Hz 24.5"
I tried to buy an other one but apparently they don't make them anymore.

With a 240hz monitor I’m assuming this build is mainly for gaming?
Any other uses, such as streaming, editing, rendering, audio production etc?
I would probably rejig your storage, a 6TB HDD is a lot of storage, would also recommend a faster m.2 such as a 980 pro with this sort of budget.
The Frostflow would not be sufficient for cooling the 5900x. I would recommend at least the H100i Corsair coolers (I have an H115i looking after my 5900x build). You can then drop the Arctic paste as the Corsair coolers come with high quality paste pre applied.
You have the basic wireless card, I would either upgrade it to the AX200 for access to the 5GHz channel and Bluetooth or you can drop it entirely if using Ethernet.
Drop Bullguard as it’s been known to cause issues, and for £5 silver warranty is well worth it.

Also what about extra case fans should I be fine with the built in case ones?

The 3080ti is now saying it is not in stock until the 1st of October but I placed my order over 2 weeks ago, does anyone know if the stock list updates per order or if it’s live for any orders made now and before.

We've heard mixed reports on this.

We've heard that parts aren't allocated until it gets to building, so that would mean that yours would be delayed until October.

But that doesn't make a lot of sense to me personally, it's no way to allocate stock IMHO, I would personally run it past PCS to be sure.

@JakAttack any chance we could get some clarity on this?

Seems like an odd way to do it if that’s true maybe just easier for them to do it like that, it has changed a few times from in stock to out of stock as well so not really sure what’s happening with it tbh

It's a problem worldwide, GPU stocks are just crazy and will be until late next year at the earliest.

This is due to silicon shortages, down on staff in production centers, worldwide logistic issues around the world due to the pandemic, and now of course Brexit causing major issues for imports.

It's not going to get better any time soon unfortunately.

There's loads of info on it all here, and it is still the same situation, nothing has changed, if anything it's got worse with the complications of brexit:


It's not just GPU's either, it's almost anything silicon related, majorly affecting car production, computers, down to even toasters and microwaves.

Yeah I’ve been keeping an eye on the whole stock shortage issue for a while thought with the crypto mining ban in China this would’ve been the best time to order a pc before someone finds a way around it and GPUs are even harder to get ahold of

It's a lot better than it was but still not good.

My car was delayed by almost 3 months due to supply problems.

I wouldn't waste my money on the 3080Ti for 1080p anyway. The 3070Ti or the 3080 would more than have you covered. Unless you are absolutely elite you're not going to be able to use anything past around 120hz anyway (which a 1660 would have you covered with)
