    PCSPECIALIST Zen 3 Tracking thread (5900x/5950x)

    Indeed, from reading around it seems a problem everywhere in the world with either stock not arriving or not getting what was expected.

    PCSPECIALIST Zen 3 Tracking thread (5900x/5950x)

    Just been speaking and they have apparently had no 5900x's in yet and are still waiting for their first batch to arrive. Hopefully any day but nothing confirmed. Could not advise how many or where I was in the queue as there is no list that the person could access but did say that what they...

    PCSPECIALIST Mesh wifi

    Have the ASUS ZenWifi (AC version) and it is rock solid with great throughout and long range. Only had it a couple of months so no long term review, but seems solid so far. 5GHz strength excellent. Seemless handoff between hubs.

    PCSPECIALIST Zen 3 Tracking thread (5900x/5950x)

    Received automated email again today saying build date still "30th". Apparently PCS are awaiting stock of the 5900x for my order and the agent I spoke with this afternoon said they were expecting some on the 13th and 16th but nothing confirmed arrivals wise.

    PCSPECIALIST Optimus Pro XI Review

    Would like to report that laptop is functioning nice and cool now. It is not unusual to see temps in their 30's when just in Windows and so far not managed to get it above 75 in Euro Truck Sim 2 using Ultra Settings (apparently according to the AMD software hitting 133FPS)

    PCSPECIALIST Optimus Pro XI Review

    No problem at all, I have found the community very helpful in spec'ing up this laptop and also my desktop that is on order. Thankfully this is one that's easy to check without opening up, the total lack of air flow out of the left hand side of the laptop seemed strange and I just had that...

    PCSPECIALIST Optimus Pro XI Review

    Honestly do not know but of course it could have been loose since the original factory who knows.... the only people who will be able to confirm is the engineers who built and tested, have to say it was not overly hard to push it into connect it and its located right under the heatsink for the...

    PCSPECIALIST Optimus Pro XI Review

    Ok, have found the problem and have to say the cooling is impressive. The fan on the CPU was not plugged in at all so was not working, have fixed it a it was an easy fix but hard to understand how it passed QC as it was obvious that the fan was not working although the temps were doing great...

    PCSPECIALIST Processing - 1 working day

    Spoke to them this morning as I wanted to make a slight change and if you ordered the new AMD CPUs on launch day then it will be in this week. The quote was "we have enough stock arriving this week to cover all orders made on launch day".

    PCSPECIALIST Optimus Pro XI Review

    Apologies for double posting but one thing I did notice but took a double take is that all the stickers for CPU, GPU etc are on the right handside of them laptop. Seeing that I recalled recently on here a thread about how it would be better etc for them to be moved. You can see in the picture...

    PCSPECIALIST Zen 3 Tracking thread (5900x/5950x)

    Yes the impression I got from the lady I spoke with was that mine would be built way before then. Incidentally none of the dates on the ones I had for my laptop were accurate, both times it gave me a date before they were even due to be instock.....

    PCSPECIALIST 4x8Gb or 2 x16Gb RAM (AMD 5000 Series)

    Hi A friend on another forum has just alerted me to the following and wondered if anyone new more. "There's been some recent reports that 4x8gb RAM is performing 5-10% better in certain games on the 5000 series AMD CPUs. Not sure how it will impact Adobe software but might be worth checking...

    PCSPECIALIST Optimus Pro XI Review

    I have one of the colour calibration devices that you can buy - the XRite i1 Display Pro which I got from Amazon a few years ago. I believe it has been replaced / updated now. There is a similar device made by Spyder. These work by sitting on the screen whilst a programme runs through a...
