    PCSPECIALIST Talk To Me

    If anyone is looking for something spooky to watch for the spooky season then I highly recommend Talk To Me and it's now on Netflix Seriously it's excellent, best modern horror in my opinion since It Follows. Can't sing enough of it's praises from setting, acting, cinematography, originality...

    PCSPECIALIST Advice on spec please - ~£1.5k budget

    1. There's more to case than being a black box mate, you want one with adequate space and airflow so the heat can be properly expelled from the case esepcially with higher end components that generate a lot of heat. RGB can be turned off though, I prefer minimal lights too but unfortunately we...

    PCSPECIALIST Advice on spec please - ~£1.5k budget

    GPU's have gotten super power hungry mate so you really have to account for those transient spikes on the PSU. Solid build but I've tweaked it just a little to give you more performance, this would be a solid 1440p 144hz build but it has the best gaming CPU of this generation so should last...

    PCSPECIALIST Can anyone look through my specs to see if this PC is any good and will run any games at high fps/res and if it will support VR please?

    These machines Scott recommended are top of the line, they will do anything you want them to do but only if they are properly supported Buying a cheap VR headset, or a cheap monitor to match these two would be a colossal waste. They are phenomenal machines with the 7800X3D being the best...

    Look mate I get this is probably frustrating but we're genuinely trying to help, we're not just saying this to be awkward. We want you to get the best possible machine tailored specifically to your needs which is the the beauty of PC gaming but to do that we need details

    PCSPECIALIST Star Citizen campaign official release????

    Pretty sure they've said this about multiple things that then never came to fruition, Squadron 42 for example I'll believe it when I see it

    PCSPECIALIST Help me please

    Mate if it's the GPU it'll basically be the cost of a new one to repair which will be expensive. Without transferring the warranty PCS will not help, they only deal with the person who has ownership of the order on their account Transferring the ownership of the warranty and account confirms...

    PCSPECIALIST Looking for feedback on a potential build - Budget of approx £1500

    Changing the RAM speed is because Ryzen CPU's in particular are very dependant on fast RAM to run optimally. The sweet spot right now is 6000Mhz on the RAM and I've gone with the best gaming CPU currently on the market, as a simple analogy you wouldn't buy a Ferrari and put £50 wheels on it...

    PCSPECIALIST New gaming PC spec any advice welcome

    At what cost? It's a better card and if you're ok going over budget to get it then sure. If you're changing or removing something from the build I laid out to get a 4070Ti in under budget then no it's not worth it It's all about balance and trade offs, what I put together is balanced...

    PCSPECIALIST New gaming PC spec any advice welcome

    The 64GB of RAM just, but that can be added as and when needed I only included 32GB because that's all PCS offer at the speed you need for now, I wouldn't drop to 5600Mhz for more RAM because that would hurt the CPU performance. Better to have 32GB of 6000Mhz than 64 GB of 5600Mhz because you...

    PCSPECIALIST New gaming PC spec any advice welcome

    This is what you want to be looking at mate, it'll tick 90% your boxes and perform really really well 32GB of RAM can be added at a later date to make it up to 64GB but only add it if you feel you need it. 64GB is a massive amount of RAM but it's easily added in later should it be required...

    PCSPECIALIST High pitched noise

    Frankly they picked very badly, you can do a hell of a lot better with 1,800. A 2 generations old CPU and RAM so slow it's basically DDR4 are not good calls at all then putting a Samsung Evo 970 for some reason when it's also 2 generations behind and fairly slow but still more expensive than...

    PCSPECIALIST Alan Wake 2 coming

    I seen much higher requirements somewhere else? Maybe they got it under control with the optimisation remember laughing at recommending a 4080 for 1080p

    PCSPECIALIST Looking for feedback on a potential build - Budget of approx £1500

    This is where I'd be aiming in your shoes mate, in future I'd be looking to upgrade the GPU and move to 1440p as 1080p is kinda a dying platform. I'd say in the next year or two though 4K will become much more affordable as it's moving to the more common display type Case CORSAIR 4000D AIRFLOW...

    PCSPECIALIST Upgrade or 'replace'

    Unless something drastic happens in the next 4-5 years I wouldn't even be considering a CPU upgrade over the 5800X in your shoes mate, it's a fantastic CPU plus the higher you push the resolution the less reliant on the CPU you become. Again unless something drastic happens in the CPU market...
