Here would be my take Case COOLERMASTER MASTERBOX TD500 MESH ARGB GAMING CASE We prefer the 5000X but the TD500 is still a solid case if it's one you like Processor (CPU) AMD Ryzen 7 5800X Eight Core CPU (3.8GHz-4.7GHz/36MB CACHE/AM4) Motherboard ASUS® STRIX B550-F GAMING (DDR4, USB 3.2, 6Gb/s)...

Heya! Before we're able to help, some info would be great 1) Uses- What will you be using the PC for? Gaming? (if so what games) Streaming? Video editing? Anything else? 2) Monitor- What monitor will be paired up with this PC? Either make and model or resolution and refresh rate would be ideal...

From memory the fans on the front of the 220T aren't PWM so you'd want to avoid moving the fans that came with the AIO away from it. On Corsair's spec sheet, it says you can fit a 240mm AIO in the top with low profile memory which the non-RGB stuff certainly is. Been able to find this photo...

I haven't, no. I had a friend that used the XBOX cloud gaming stuff- apparently it was fine for little indie games but terrible for the more demanding stuff. That's where my comment of it needs some work came from. I should give it a go really. "Measly 50mb" *Cries in 35mb* Yeah, I thought...

I've got a friend that has a theory about this that sounds like it could plausable. These massive companies are making these parts so damn powerful that they use a tonne of electricity, so much so that we can begin to reconsider justifying the pure cost of powering these systems. But, people...

Heya! What budget have you got for the monitor? As this'll gague how we spend the budget. Also is this money you have available now so we can re-adjust the spend if need be?

Heya! Honestly looks pretty solid! There's a couple things we could change here- would you mind copying the re-configure link that should just be at the bottom of the page where you got this from?

Thought I'd pop in here and blow my RX6600 horn again 😂 The RX6600 is a GPU option from AMD and it's what I'd label as the deal to be had on GPU's right now (it's the first one I've seen at retail at MSRP). It's got performance equivalent to an RTX 3060 for over £200 less from PCS, not only...

The 3 you've mentioned here are really our go to monitor choices 👌 On the Gigabyte's- the 28inch is the better monitor (looking at parts and performance) but the 32 inch is a more ideal size for 4K, which one you go for is up to you, would be happy suggesting either. The Samsung G9 is an insane...

A Number of changes we could make to reduce the price of this build -TUF Z690 is ample for the 12700K, the STRIX is also white so not as nice aesthetically -For gaming, there isn't a huge difference between 3200mhz and 3600mhz, especially with the Cas Latencies of the RAM PCS provides (they...

Heya! Neither build is ideal, really you should be on the Intel 12th DDR4 gen configurator for the best starting point- Intel have really smashed it out the park with 12th gen. Aside from that- I notice you've got a monitor in each spec, is that something you'll need as part of the budget?

Could you explain this? I understand for AMD as Ryzen 5000 is practically EOL and we're expecting something within the coming months but Intel's 13th gen is still probably 7 months away meaning we've still got more than half the product life cycle left, doesn't sound very tail end to me...

Heya! Before we start- on the budget, just to make sure you're aware, once the PC arrives in Switzerland, It'll face swiss customs where you'll be charged Swiss sales tax as PCS isn't VAT registered in Switzerland, is this something you've factored in?

It's pretty hard to recommend without a budget, but below would probably be our general ideal starting spec, you can go less and you can certianly go more, but we'd reckon this as a comfortable starting point. Depending on how long it'll take you to save, it might be worth coming back when you...

First reviews are dropping of these new CPU's. the 5600 non-X looks like an okay choice- performance is pretty similar to the X with a slightly cheaper price tag- the generally cheaper board prices for AMD systems might help it fight back a little bit here but an EOL platform won't. The 5500...

Well. I guess here's a card for this thread... the 3090TI has officially released. MSRP of £1879, currently £2143 for an AIB card from PCS I'm sure these reviews are amazingly positive!

Future upgradability. In 3/4 years time when games are more demanding and your FPS are starting to drop, you'll want a more powerful GPU. Putting an 850W in now will more likely allow you to just make that swap instead of needing to swap the PSU too. You save money in the long run and it's a...

Another Juni0r? Jokes aside! The 12900K isn't really worth the premium over the 12700K for purely gaming loads. It's a monsterous CPU don't get me wrong but gaming doesn't currently scale much past 6 cores and the 12900K is an incredibly hot and incredibly power hungry CPU. If you want the...

Well, as season openers go, that was a pretty fantastic one! Spoilers on Bahrian Race:
