    PCSPECIALIST ASUS® TUF X570-PLUS GAMING motherboard additional RAM issues

    ..."if not done correctly it can have catastrophic implications".. I am so glad I asked! sounds like I have to clear off a few hours to do this properly and ideally during times that PCS is open and can take my calls. Honestly I thought I'll order these in, flick the RAM latches, pop em in...

    PCSPECIALIST Just set up Desktop from PCS, then attempted to upgrade RAM. Need some help.

    @Scott that's interesting. I didn't know that all RAM past 3200Mhz is OC. Do I have to do the same for the RAM sticks that I got from PCS, or the slots that the new RAM is going to? ...I have been having issues with the RAM that I purchased from PCS as well...

    PCSPECIALIST ASUS® TUF X570-PLUS GAMING motherboard additional RAM issues

    Hi, I have 2x 16gb VENGEANCE RGB PRO DDR4 3200MHz sticks installed and recently I got another 2x of the same. When I add the 2 new RAM sticks the board does not recognise the RAM, I get the red light and all the beeps to confirm that RAM is not recognised by the motherboard. I remove the new...

    PCSPECIALIST rtx 3070 sales preference according to upgrade / build ?

    Hi all thought to pop in again and say hi I have noticed that a few people are going from a 3080 to a 3070 which is what I did from day 1 and got my built in under 20 days from the moment I placed the order. My master plan was (and it still is) that in 1-2 years to sell the 3070 and be able to...

    PCSPECIALIST Beeps on boot

    Hi I have experienced the same issue with my new machine and I have found that the solution is it turn the monitor on before booting up. If I restart it is fine (which makes sense as the monitor is running already). Bit frustrating to begin as this is brand new and also I do remember that...

    Also I would like to say how grateful I am to the people of PC Specialist and the long hours that they have put in. I had no hope to have anything this side of Christmas and the fact that they have put in the hours to have it ready has earned all my respect. I say that, no matter if I get to...

    Waiting dispatch.... I have to say I was completely caught out by the progress and if it wasn't for the threat of not having fresh produce next week due to France closing the border I wasn't going to get a monitor until the new year. Also I sent them 2 messages a few days ago, asking to...

    I remember those days as I had put together my build and was doing last minute tweaks and trying to squeeze every bit of wisdom of the usual people in this forum. Then suddenly the 3070 went pre order only and that made me to place the order to be honest as I was getting fed up of salivating...
