    Intel M.2 SSD has the worst lifespan. Corsair or Samsung are your options. I just bought a PC with the fastest possible Samsung M.2 SSD for my OS and it was the best decision. Windows updates running within minutes, and when I turn on a PC it loads in 7 seconds! (With system tray)

    I would change M.2 SSD to the fastest Samsung to gain Windows performance. And drop Thermal paste because your AIO already comes with a good quality preapplied paste. Haven't looked at PC case and fans so maybe someone else will have something to say about it.

    We need a link to your specs, not to the configurator :) When I open your link, it shows me not your, but just the default specs. Look up the sticky thread to see how to post specs. https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/forums/threads/how-to-post-your-specification-to-the-forum-check-this-spec.73718/

    PCSPECIALIST What do you think of this spec?

    Martin has a valid point. If you upgrade to 1440p after more than 1 year, then better to aim specs for 1080p now, but if within a few months, then target specs to 1440p. Regarding a motherboard - if you'll change a CPU after 3 or more years, then maybe worth to get X570 now, of it will still...

    That's wrong ;) Older AMD generations were hot, newer are much better in nearly all cases, comparing to already outdated Intel technology.

    PCSPECIALIST Pc won't start

    I vote for RMx 850W ;) Very good quality, very amazed and glad I took it in to my build.

    I've used all of these last year during my short 1 year Data Analytics course with my old laptop which I thought will explode 😅 I had to leave it overnight to finish the computations. I'm no expert, just a simple guy wanted to challenge myself in this area (later switched to accounting). I'm...

    PCSPECIALIST Very poor service

    Oh yes, now it make sense :)

    PCSPECIALIST Chrome crash due to recent update

    Wonderful news! ;) (without sarcasm) The more Chrome issues appear, the more people will realise it's no longer the best browser. In fact, there is no best, but there are definitely better ones around.

    PCSPECIALIST Very poor service

    Something doesn't add up to me. If PCS rang every week, that's an indication that they care, but aware of the situation. My first guess would be that there's a shortage of certain part and they're waiting for it to be delivered to them. Or, another guess would be that only a certain technician...

    As above, we need to know more about a screen so we could properly advise which GPU should it go with. Unfortunately, budget is very low. Would you be able to increase it? Currently prices due to demand and supply disbalance are high. I'm wondering, what kind of games you'll run (to understand...

    PCSPECIALIST Can't Watch YouTube on my PC

    I suppose Spydertracks is closer to the source of the issue. Without too much of thinking I would clear a browser catch and restart the machine, and also restart a wifi modem. Youtube is stubborn and I also had similar problems, mainly on Chrome, when wifi was unreliable during covid. With Ms...

    PCSPECIALIST Gaming PC (£2,000 range) - looking for advice

    Edit: added a big chunk of info. Good point. I can confirm that currently moded Cities Skylines taking 18-20GB RAM, personally for me. I don't know exactly how many mods and assets I have, but definitely a bit over one hundred. It's taking between 2 and 2.5 minutes to load the game (mainly due...

    PCSPECIALIST What do you think of this spec?

    Hi, decent build. However, I would amend a few things. Before that, could you let us know your budget, PC uses (just gaming or streaming, editing etc) - before answering this you need to think not about uses now, but likely uses within a few years period in future. Also, very important - what is...

    PCSPECIALIST Zotac 2060 1 fan at full speed

    Just a quick update regarding the above. I've dropped a message via my PCS online account and PCS got back to me very quickly - they agreed to replace my GPU, but because I'm not in the UK, I need to arrange a delivery myself. They recommended to use their partner FedEx but when I checked the...

    PCSPECIALIST Lets talk about Fans...

    I would see a 5000X being more flexible for improvement - changing a front panel, fans already come as RGB. While 5000D isn't as much for improvement in a sense that it comes with plain non-RGB fans. So I don't know if throwing them out and replacing with RGB fans would make sense money-wise...

    The sexiest part of fans is RGB 🥰 Would you think to change 5000D to 5000X? If you want, you can buy and change a case front panel from 5000D separately and to put on the 5000X.
