    PCSPECIALIST Advice on specs

    Oh, If you're able to spare another 100 EUR it would be worth considering the 12400F especially considering how CPU demanding these FPS games are, but if not, no worries, the 12100 is actually a little pocket rocket

    PCSPECIALIST Advice on specs

    Heya! Honestly, nothing I'd massively want to change here! I'd personally I'd go for a 1TB SSD instead of a 500GB SSD and 2TB HDD, unless you have a requirement to store a large amount of files. I'd also spend the few euros extra on an ATX motherboard, I find mATX motherboards in ATX cases to...

    Fair enough on the 700K. For the GPU, it depends what you want to do with monitors. If you're happy at 1080p and up to a 144hz monitor then the 6600 would be fine- it's a 1080p card, if you're eyeing up that monitor upgrade (which again, I'd highly recommend) then the 3060TI is the one you'll...

    Awesome! That's all correct! I certainly would suggest upgrading that monitor- I went from 1080p 60hz to 1440p 144hz a little bit ago and it was mind blowing. You're currently looking at about £300-350 for a decent 1440p 144-165hz IPS monitor. Any questions, ask away! Case FRACTAL DEFINE 7...

    Heya! Always love a detailed post! I'll go through and answer your questions then I have a few of my own The Lian Li gets mentioned a lot as it's the cheapest high airflow case from a known brand on the configurator currently. I'd only ever suggest the Define 7 if you're specifically looking...

    PCSPECIALIST First Gaming PC - £2000 budget

    Honestly couldn't comment on the MSI monitor, I've just mentioned the VG27AQ1A as it's a monitor we like a lot here and comes in at a few £ cheaper. The extra £70 was sort of a buffer to add a half decent keyboard and mouse which aren't in my spec at the moment. If you wanted to spend the extra...

    Not to mention the 3050 falls a longggg way short of what the 6600 offers

    PCSPECIALIST First Gaming PC - £2000 budget

    If you're really trying to stay on budget, then this is the build I'd recommend. There should be just about enough to pick up a keyboard and mouse set at the end of this. Won't be the fanciest stuff but will do the job for now (y) The other thing worth mentioning is if you've got any PC you'll...

    PCSPECIALIST First Gaming PC - £2000 budget

    Heya! Thanks for all the info! Should all be possible for your budget! Just before we continue, as you're saying "I finally want to build my own PC" Are you looking to personally build this PC yourself, or are you wanting to configure the system then have it built and shipped to you by PCS?

    Looks like a sweet build, couple things I'd personally change- now the 5600 is finally out there's not much point in going for a 5600X anymore, that then gives you some more cash to spend on a larger 1TB SSD. I'd also personally spend a few quid on a more modern case- Corsair 4000D/ Lian Li 215...

    PCSPECIALIST First pc build for gaming, please tell me where I am wrong cos I know I probs am

    Forum really seems to hate me tonight... Part 2, again! I'm a complete and utter shill for the RX6600 and the moment, it's such a fantastic value card versus the NVIDIA options. Same price as the 3050, same performance as the 3060. Absolute no brainer for me. Yes, Direct storage should be...

    1440p system alone? Easily. With monitor it changes a bit it just depends if OP has any more cash to spend on a monitor or if that was included in the budget Swapping the 6600 for a 3060TI (6600XT and 6650XT aren't quite there for 1440p and the 6700XT is more than the 60TI) and removing the...

    PCSPECIALIST Question about a cooler from cpu cooler selection

    You'd be correct about the ID Cooling assumption. I don't think it's a perfect match but I believe the FF200 to be a mish mash of the SE-207-BLACK and SE-207-XT. Performance of that cooler is admirable, although you won't need a cooler that size for a 12100F, something like the FF100 would do...

    What's the reluctance if you don't mind me asking? Space? Budget? Worried about FPS? If it's budget you're worried about there's certainly areas we can save on to get you both a PC and a monitor for your budget Even at 1440p, it seems you'll be averaging 140FPS with 'competitive' settings or...
