    PCSPECIALIST Controllable fan speeds?

    As said that was well out of your budget but it’s like a 10 year pc build. okay, the single item in a PC that is the most changed is the Graphics card. always plan for some overhead in case you need to replace the card. while you say you will never change, what if in 2 years time your 1660...

    PCSPECIALIST Controllable fan speeds?

    Right this is well above your £800 budget, but I prefer starting higher and then tweaking the right bits down. Also the AMD CPU I was going to spec was out of stock. Additionally, there is an RTX 3050ti due out in next few months, options are to wait for that or configure your PC to accept it...

    PCSPECIALIST Controllable fan speeds?

    Cheers, the next thing is how strict is your budget and how much flex have you in delivery times? obviously trying to build a PC on a limited budget is hard but also fraught with perils in not building something that provides a good return of investment - mainly short lifecycle, inability to...

    PCSPECIALIST Controllable fan speeds?

    Most likely not, the cheaper the case and build invariably means less control. also if you put up your build as per link below, there are some changes you should really consider. main one being AMD rather than Intel...

    PCSPECIALIST Have Intel been given a Ladder to get out of the Hole?

    It has been recognised for a while that Intel have been broken for a while. Not just with architecture but also their consumer / prosumer model has been fragmented. It will be interesting what route they choose to get out of that hole they dug. A new CEO and Interim CPU and recognising they...

    PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080

    And also real world pennies as a PSU specced wrongly and operating hard equates to higher electric bill. The joys of physics in action.

    PCSPECIALIST i9 10900 k @ 5.1 ghz and nzxt 511 mid case with 240mm radiator

    As above, also if you play DCS and are looking towards single core, then you really need to read up about Vulcan API and multithreading update, also update 3.7. 2021 will bring multi core support, things such as better volumetrics (clouds etc), higher scenery packs etc require it. There was a...

    PCSPECIALIST Check this Spec

    With the Ryzen 5 5600 and not doing any heavy gaming then that’s ideal. with a 27” 1440 and not being worried about FPS (as you mention above). then it really comes down to games you play, the type, the graphic settings you prefer, I use custom as I find ultra utterly pointless and it kills...

    Btw on here moderator or minion, we all give balanced advice, we look to build a balanced system and offer information to people to make informed choices. Now if people choose to ignore all this, it’s their budget and their rig to live with. Would an Intel build be okay, yes it would, at this...
