I've been having a bit of trouble with my new PC. For some reason when I wake it from sleep, it shows a globe icon bottom right, with a disabled sign next to it. When I click on the icon it brings up the wireless networks and shows the network I am attached to as "Secured, not connected".
Is...
EDIT: Looks like my earlier quote from Tuesday accidentally included RGB RAM rather than standard...so have made a bit of a saving there. Couldn't understand why earlier when I was doing the config again there looked to be so little difference in price between the 3200 and 3600mhz RAM.
3200 RGB...
Nearly placed the order now. Still toying between the Meshify and R6 but it'll probably make little difference either way - both have plus and minus points. Tower goes under the desk so isn't really taking up valuable space.
Thank you all for your help.

Thank you. Yes, I guessed that was rather the case - a smooth smart front with no vents doesn't quote allow the well designed air throughflow. The Meshify is a pretty reasonable compromise though.
Appreciate the explanation.
Looking again the R6 is quite a tempting option - £28 more but a...
Wow! Thank you for that advice.
I'm not 100% on the Meshify C - not quite as slim and streamlined/understated as the 275R but I can see the logic of function over form.

Reading through a few posts of other people's proposed builds for some extra tips.....
- Almost all suggest the Adata drive so they must be pretty popular/reliable
- Again almost all go for 3200mhz RAM - I see I need to be in "AMD Ryzen Extreme Computers" section rather than Workstation to get...
Thanks. Any particular reasons for each?
The configurator won't let me go any higher than 2 x 8gb 3000mhz (£19 more) - 3200mhz isn't an option.
Nor will it let me add Hyper 212 processor cooling - next options up are all liquid cooling, something I was really looking to avoid.
Is the PSU...
Please feel free to pick apart this design spec....aiming on a relatively simple office PC that can also cover some gaming too.
Have an extra spare 1tb HDD or two here already I can add to the build too, whilst external storage is covered by a Synology NAS so this build shouldn't need too much...
Thank you. Sounds like moving up to the AMD Ryzen and B450 might be the sensible option then.

Thanks Oussebon.
What is it that is restricting the speed please?
Is it limited all the time, or just because it is shared (as advised on livechat) please?
I'm concerned that by starting off with a limited motherboard,any future options are limited too. My current mobo is limited to 4gb RAM...
Well.....I ordered one of these PCs today, and within a few hours I find out that the H310 motherboard limits the hard drive speeds. PCS Live Chat have advised that the motherboard can support full speed of the M.2 SSD but if combined with a SATA drive the two share the speeds. Is this correct...
Thanks. As it happens I've just purchased a Vortex GTS III Enigma. It was ideal budget and a great spec so didn't really warrant changing or doing a custom PC - the only thing I would have changed was the SSD to a Samsung version, but I can just buy one separately as an addon for just as good a...
