Having just got a PC Specialist PC in Ireland I can confirm no extra charges. They have an Irish VAT number too so no issues.

Obviously something very funny going on. You shouldnt need to move your pc or use external fans. I'd go back to first principles. Reset the bios (then reenable XMP for the RAM) and make sure the GPU is at default settings. Are all the fans actually spinning?

Agreed. However 750W is more than enough for me. The case is actually quite nice to work inside but the front is awful. Storage is fine for now, I think the PCS SSD is looking to be a reasonable device. Dont get me wrong, I wish I could have specced my own, particularly the case, but I just...

So I recently got a prebuilt same day dispatch Tornado to avoid the wait, which is very long at the moment. I'm not suggesting you do the same, but I am very very happy. This will give you an indication of the specs and as you can see its quite similar to what was recommended above: People...

I actually had a Asus K1 membrane which I panic bought with my PC but I just love the mechanical switches. I did try a logitech in the shop too and it was beautiful so to a large extent its a matter of taste once you go to a certain level. This think is just so cool though!

Got a Steelseries Apex pro today. It's bloody amazing. But I'm sure most at this price range are.

Talk about the processor noted above but that system with a 5600x would still be a great system and slide just about into your budget. It would be far better than midrange for anything upto and including 1440p for many years to come. I'd drop the Samsung SSD to a PC Specialist one too, have...

5800x Asus TUG x570 Gaming 4x8GB Corsair 3600 No issues at all.

Yeah be careful with the performance settings and such and they mildly overclock all cores but you loose the boost. If any doubt you can reset all to default. Just be sure to put your ram back to 3200 or whatever it is now.

They’re decent CPUs to be fair.

Nope, CPU is stock just boosting to 4.8 by itself. Not sure re the GPU, its a Palait gaming pro OC, so its designed for some tuning.

Need a little more detail pal.

My prebuilt tornado result. Love this machine. Card is mildly OCd. 5800x 3070 Frostflow 240 32GB 3600 ram

I must say I'm surprisingly impressed with the Frostflow 240. On almost every build I see people saying take it out but its sitting here at 29 degrees on the Ryzen 7 OC to 4200Mhz and its keeping it mighty cool.

So the computer has arrived in perfect condition 1/2 days late?

Well finally up and running! Can I ask one more question? The machine came with 2x8GB. In the bios these show as 2666 and overclocked to 3600, all good. When I install 2 more identical 8GB chips 2 of them show 2133, but the still overclock to 3600 and it shows all the ram running at 3600 in...

Just have mine up and running. Lovely system. I guess if you want to want 1-2 months you can tweak a better one. But this does nicely.

I've ordered it. I think it's well balanced. I've gotten 16GB of extra ram to add to it to make it 32GB. The Ryzen 7 and 3070 are a nice combo.

Yeah actually the tech guy I got this morning wanted some so I sent him some. I'm so excited to get this up and running! I went with an Alienware 34" ultra wide monitor which will be here next week too.

I think its actually a very sensible approach. The RMA has already been approved by a manager even though they said it would be Monday. So all going well by next weekend I'll have a working computer and can start again. I looked at the box and it took an awful beating in shipping. Torn through...
