Might be wrong but I was under the impression that the B550 motherboard required a BIOS update to take the new Ryzen CPUs and it was best to go with the X570?

Talking about backups, what are the recommendations for external HDDs? The last time I touched a ExHDD was 2006 when I worked at Maplin so I imagine things have moved on from then especially with the introduction of both SSD's and USB3. Are Seagate still on par with Western Digital?

Have you tried restarting the Windows Explorer process in task manager? I find any issues with funkiness in Windows 10 is usually resolved this way.

Gives a whole new meaning to the term 'Sticky keys' :ROFLMAO: I'm awaiting my build and will be trying out the HP Omen X27 if you fancy 1440p 240hz, sometimes you can find good deals on these monitors

For added context: Here is my wifi adapter connected: Speed fluctuates between 325Mbps and 390Mbps Speedtest: Ethernet: Ping is the same but the speed is over double. Wifi does lose internet more than ethernet also but again I expect this is a crosstalk/interference issue. I'm on a...

So this is for my old PC Specialist build but its a strange one I can't quite put my finger on. So my computer was built and running Windows 7, Basic specs: Processor (CPU) AMD FX-9590 Eight Core CPU (4.7GHz-5.0GHz/16MB CACHE/AM3+) Motherboard ASUS® 970 PRO GAMING/AURA (DDR3, USB3.0, 6Gb/s...

Not stressing just got curious and wondering if I'll need to clear off any old drivers before installing my 3070 ones (I imagine the card would run on win 10 defaults until Windows loads)

I like the 5900x but I'm not sure anyone likes it that much.

100% benchmark it before installing anything else. If for nothing more than bragging rights. :D

Don't forget you are legally required due to gamer law to post up a picture of your build once received. Let us know the options you chose too so we can all be envious! :cool:

This is going to be a bit of a noob question I feel but something I wanted to confirm. When I amended my order I was told that the 5900x cpu does not have integrated graphics, so with this in mind, how does PCS test a system with this configuration? I know my X570 Strix board has HDMI/DP ports...

Apparently they had some stock so it must have been assigned to somebody If what Agi was saying is true then someone waiting on a 3080 since September 17th amending their order at 2pm yesterday would take precedence over mine as they have been pending longer.

It's so pretty!

When did you order? And has anyone that's in build chosen the 5900X Cpu?

I have my Palit 3070 Gamepro OC edition sitting here but I can't upload a picture as it says its too large?

That's not abuse of the system, that's standard practice and total baloney. Nothing was ordered on the 16th as the card hadn't even launched so it would be impossible for anyone to order on the 16th. Upgrading your order is still subject to the same restrictions as everyone else, if I had a...

Hopefully the fact you've called them and spoken to them will push your order along? Your experience does remind me of this video though...

Guys do remember that they still have a max amount of PCs that can be building at any time. If you haven't had the email it may be because your PC has been picked but hasn't entered the build room yet until the others move over to testing. Out of interest people whose builds have gone into...

We all hate scalpers but I figured this would be a fun thread where we can all poke fun at the lame, ridiculous, and downright outrageous excuses that scalpers come with when trying to flog their products at extortionate prices. Here are a few of my favorites I've found: "Accidentally bought 4...

I got a 3070, I'm happy enough but now its staring me in the face, along with a new monitor in the box waiting for the PC to be built :cry:
