    PCSPECIALIST New PC build, but what gfx card to build around?

    In order to answer the most obvious question, it's a new build as my current pc goes on to my stepson in the hope he will move on from roblox (!). I am, in the back of my brain, considering an oled monitor. I have a steam deck and boy, I know how good oled looks! But I am still very much in...

    PCSPECIALIST New PC build, but what gfx card to build around?

    Good morning all, It's coming to that time when I'll be building a new pc via this lovely company, as always! But I've been out of the loop for a bit so looking for advice on the graphics card to build around. FYI I am currently running an 8GB AMD RADEON™ RX 5700 XT so pretty much anything...

    ah very true, i've been through the "psu wasn't enough" path before, some years ago. tbh I didnt expect people to be recommending the 40* series either. What sort of psu's are people putting in current day builds?

    PCSPECIALIST Replacement PSU question

    Hello all, One of my PCSpecialist PC is making quite the racket and I'm pretty certain it's coming from the PSU (so it's probably the fan).

    PCSPECIALIST Very loud GTX460

    Hey all, I got my PC about 6 weeks ago and it works just fine but I've noticed recently that when playing 3d games there's a very loud whine from what I assume is the fan on the GTX460.
