The Recoil is different to most chassis in that it uses liquid metal rather than thermal paste. Liquid metal is a whole different thing, it's conductive, so if you use to much or get any anywhere on the board, it's likely something will short out, it's also corrosive, so like an acid will eat...

I may do that next time I'm out for dinner anyway without an injury! Sounds fab, Roman stylee dining, will have to take my nephews along brandished with large palm fronds to fan me during the 12 courses.

I have offered knowledgeable advice, and given clear steps to either save up more, or to buy second hand or old stock of the shelf You may not understand but that's far more honest and better advice that leading someone astray thinking they can get a 1440p gaming system for £1k Your advice...

So why aren’t you giving advice then for a 1440p system for £1k? Obviously you have some magical supplier selling current parts at 50% discount, why not give the OP a system based on that? I find it really funny that @Backers92 was given similar advice when they ordered and actually listened...

What advice can I give other than the OP doesn't enough budget for an entry level custom PC, we can only advise on PCS systems, and the OP can't afford one. Urm, no, clearly you have an issue understanding basic IT Principles, a throwaway system that performs poorly out of the box is not...

So, Intel took even more a nosedive with their 13th and 14th gen CPU's, they then came out with the 200 series which was pretty much a flop out of the gates, the biggest being the Core Ultra 9 285k (stupid naming convention!)...

@Ekans2011 is right on the money actually, obviously you others baselessly defending what you don’t understand may think that buying into an over 4 year old platform is a wise investment, if you’re doing so, a £1000 pc actually costs you £2000 straight away when you factor in the expected...

Happy Chrimblepops to all peeps May it be bright and beaming with lots of haribo. I'm working til 7pm tonight.... booo, but then off until Monday! I'm breaking tradition and having rack of venison for christmas lunch!!!

Silicon can go from cold state to thermal throttling within a matter of nano-seconds, doesn't need time to warm up No, that's not a solution, the issue is the OS, not MSMPeng.exe This was an issue when it was released but was quickly fixed. There is now significant gains in 24/H2 Yes, windows...

So there are combined issues here 1/. The system will be thermal throttling without the watercooler, that system, especially with that GPU has to be run with the watercooler or will thermal throttle. As soon as it hits throttling limits, your DPC latency will go sky high. 2/. You're getting...

Those reviews were on release 2 years ago, not relevant now, and at a point where Nvidia had full control over developers being limited in VRAM. Developers have largely stuck their fingers up to Nvidia since and are no longer sticking to Nvidia VRAM restrictions At 1440p, you want a minimum...

We don't know as they haven't been announced yet, could be a matter of a week, could be a month. Not sure what you mean by generation upgrades not getting cheaper, that's not correct. If you mean same tier may be more expensive, that may well be true, but with generation upgrades the tiers are...

Can you copy and paste the full specs? We can't see if you ordered it with windows or not? Which port have you got the Focusrite in? Is it a USB A port? It would need to be connected directly into the laptop, not via a dock. Are you using the external water cooler system? Can you do a quick...

No offence to @nephron but this is purely designed for gaming, it's not targeted at editing. If the OP is in fact requiring this for professional work, then rendering is the more important use case, rendering is a multithreaded workload that will benefit from as many cores as you can throw at...
