    PCSPECIALIST Help!

    Agree, as above, 1080p resolution shouldn't be used on bigger than 24-25 inch screens, otherwise it significantly looses a picture quality. My best friendly advice would be to save more money, to around 1800 pounds (would be around 1500 pounds for a new PC and around 300 pounds for one new good...

    PCSPECIALIST Help!

    Hi ;) What's your monitor (refresh rate, resolution, panel) and budget? For gaming PC you'll need to up your budget to around 1500 as these specs are more likely closer to an office PC or very low end emergency gaming PC for 2-3 years at most.

    PCSPECIALIST New PC Spec - feedback welcome

    I would change a PSU to Corsair RMx 850W for its better quality (run cooler and more quiet than TXm), also 850W because you may need more power in future if you upgrade a GPU after some years, and because PSU within time looses some power draw capabilities. Asus AC88 isn't necessary, Intel...

    PCSPECIALIST Thoughts on my build?

    There were some issues with 4 RAM sticks on Asus motherboards: https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/forums/threads/survey-for-amd-ryzen-users-with-four-ram-cards.77077/ When X570 picked, under 2nd storage drive click "Show additional storage options".

    PCSPECIALIST Thoughts on my build?

    Drop extra thermal paste. Corsair AIO will be with a preapplied quality paste. I would get 16x2 32GB RAM, not 8x4 as now. 3rd storage (500GB ssd Barracuda) confuses me. Why not second M.2 then, could even be just a PCS 500GB M.2 - they aren't expensive, but still much faster then just an old...

    PCSPECIALIST CoolerMaster MasterLiquid Lite 240 - fizzing sound

    Just checked your PC case and it looks that H115i won't fit in it due to its radiator size. H110i is your only best choice, if I'm not wrong.

    PCSPECIALIST CoolerMaster MasterLiquid Lite 240 - fizzing sound

    Corsair is a better brand, H115i would be sufficient for this CPU. 3060 is for 1080p and 3070 is for 1440p, so it depends on what is your monitor and how many of them. I wouldn't worry about storage, just make copies of your data. Corsair 850W RMx is a very good quality PSU, but if you think...

    PCSPECIALIST Gaming/Music Production Build

    Actually, now thinking, for music production you may benefit from having an Asus Rog Strix X570-F motherboard. I don't recommend B550 pairing with 5800X. 5800X is an excellent CPU for your uses, but it runs hot. While H110i is a good cooler, it's an absolute minimum for this CPU. I'd recommend...

    PCSPECIALIST Are you getting vaccinated?

    Sounds great! In my mind it sounds more like to take a vaccine and hope for the best, for the sake of reaching the target to weaken the virus... As I said, it sounds very nice, great, kind, altruistic and not selfish at all for all of our brighter future and for the healthier society. I'm sure...

    PCSPECIALIST Are you getting vaccinated?

    Your reasons are very valid and if I were you, I would have done same.

    PCSPECIALIST Are you getting vaccinated?

    Not yet. Normally vaccines are being tested for 3 years before putting them on shelves. They currently are approved only through emergency path... I don't have enough information about how they work and very tiny bit of statistical information regarding side effects in the longer term. For me...

    I'm wondering, wouldn't it interfere with wifi and Bluetooth signals? And... of course, 5G 😁 🤣

    PCSPECIALIST First PC setup

    Beautiful! What are the specs? 🥸 Don't forget to screw in the wifi antennae if you got with wifi and repeatedly run all Windows 10 updates for the first few days. Also, check if your GPU drivers are installed and a monitor refresh rate is setup through Windows monitor advanced settings 👌

    PCSPECIALIST Non-Gaming PC that will allow easy upgrade to Gaming PC in the future

    AM5 Ram will be more expensive in the beginning. It depends what upgrades OP has in mind. Normally it's just a GPU upgrade (if a motherboard, CPU and cooler combination is strong), then Ram wouldn't be a concern. I think it will take at least a few years until AM5 will become popular.

    Thanks for letting us know! 👍🏾 Are you planning to get a Macbook in a near future as one of my friends is looking to buy it shortly. Would also be interested in other purchases you'd be getting :) What about lottery predictions - are you good at this too? 😊
