    PCSPECIALIST logitechs idea for a "forever mouse"

    I've not had a chance to listen to the interview so won't comment on what was said. But the PC Gamer article made an interesting comparison to the rental housing market (in the context of subscriptions for physical things)... Whilst although hopefully its obvious to all, a mouse and a house are...

    PCSPECIALIST Help with best option for monitor

    Try to keep to one thread if possible so folk can see what other users have suggested. I presume you don't like the spec that @Scott posted hence reverting (mostly) back to your original spec?. What are the problems you see with it? Perhaps they can be discussed see what your drivers are?

    PCSPECIALIST corsair noise from fan at specific speed

    It could be that there's a small defect in with the specific fan that's making the noise that gets amplified at that specific RPM. If its causing you irritation you could always let PCS know, I'm not sure if they'll offer to replace the fan or not for a noise in fairness but could be worth a...

    PCSPECIALIST Games crashing to desktop/potential issues with parts

    There could be an avenue of resolution if you've already raised these issues with PCS. When your PC started misbehaving did you contact PCS at all to resolve the issue? I know you're not blaming anyone or anything like that, but PCS are really very good at handling issues and finding...

If you would like to...

    PCSPECIALIST New gaming pc - advice welcome

    Hi there! Regards the SSD, I think there's probably an argument that for 'general use' there are diminishing returns for a boot and second drive. But my take on this is that I know I like to reinstall windows every now and then and frankly, its just a little bit easier with a boot drive and...

    PCSPECIALIST serial number invalid

    OP seems to be trying to change lighting settings in Armory Crate and its asking him to register the product. I certainly didn't have to do with with my PC but I guess it might on occasion not pull that data itself? Somehow? Not sure. @edenupy as @TonyCarter asked, what happens when you click...

    PCSPECIALIST Starting point for a suitable laptop?

    Just to followup and re-iterate what others have noted, please refrain from these kinds of suggestions here. It is always recommended to purchase Windows from legitimate storefronts (typically Microsoft themselves) guaranteeing you are not perpetuating the grey markets.

    PCSPECIALIST Will a AMD RX580 GPU fit on a B660M DS3H Motherboard in a PCS ELEMENT CASE?

    @Ekans2011 is totally correct, I'd add that you can upgrade the GPU via PCS (presuming you purchased your original machine from here) if you wished too (and that would have them check) or if you're doing it yourself (imo) your main considerations would be; Space in the case (length, width of...

    PCSPECIALIST [Solved] My PC was working fine until yesterday but won't power on today

    Really silly thing to check (but worth it) you've not accidently knocked the switch on the back of the PSU (where the plug goes into the PC) to the off position? Failing that - take the PC to a different plug socket and try that, I'd also take a look inside the PC when its plugged on to see if...

    PCSPECIALIST Max Spec Advice please for Samsung G9 5120x1440 240hz £3500-£4000 Gaming Build

    The point @Martinr36 was making is that its far easier to respond to a thread if you have all of the info available, starting a new thread to talk about a specification you've already discussed would force someone to read through your old posts on a seperate thread to get a full picture of what...

    PCSPECIALIST The truth behind Elon Musk

    Just incase this thread gets traction, a gentle reminder to anyone contributing that we should refrain from political discussions on this forum. This topic (as interesting as it is) has strong potential to move into those kinds of discussions so bare this in mind.
