It feels great. My old Desktop was 11 years old and I got it Brand New at the time it was a decent spec. It was struggling as no updates were around. I got an i7 XPS Dell Laptop about 5 year old which is still pretty impressive but I prefer a nice desktop PC!
Morning all,
I have just received my new PC Specialist Desktop which is brilliant!
My old desktop was so bad I had to leave it on sleep every night otherwise it would struggle to boot and take so long the next day.
Should I shut down the new one every single night or leave it on sleep and...
I get that @SpyderTracks but for £33 difference even moving files such as video's etc will it not be much quicker? Surely even for storage it will be better option?
@SpyderTracks This better?
I can pay the £26 for the 1TB PCS SSD or go for the 512GB for £-4.00... Or would you still go for the 1TB HDD?

This for info mate I'll look into it. All the changes PCS are gonna hate mate.
You making me add more and gonna get me killed by the Mrs. I'll post an update tomorrow.
Thanks again!
The hard drive because I have a laptop and it'll be nice to be able to move images and videos between the two. Are external hard drives slower?
I'll remove the Bullguard then.
With the cooler I thought I'd need one. Surely it will be ok? Do I have to remove it?
It has normal warranty. Why do...
Thanks for the advice guys I finally have it ready for build Monday 5th October.

I have made some changes based on the recommendations here. Not finalized just yet, awaiting replies.
I swapped the

Do I need the additional 2 fans? the case already has...
Thanks Cooper. I noticed most people spec the Nvidia 1660 Super but I have AMD Radeon 5500XT is this something I should change?
I thought maybe it would be better pairing the AMD with the AMD processor.
Can someone please advise what would I notice the speed difference from the m.2 Samsung Evo SSD to a normal PCS m.2 SSD?
Will it be that much better? Only asking as NurseMorph changed it in he's spec for me.
Thank you for the advice, the items you have added make the upgrade about £140. I know this don't sound too much but I do not want to get carried away too early. If I really enjoy gaming on the PC and need something a little more powerful I will upgrade.
Is my motherboard not good enough then...
Afternoon all,
I have already ordered a new desktop from PC specialist. I am kind of up to date with technology but not into detail of the gaming pc genius.
I spend a lot of time on the PC doing the general youTube watching bit of forums, PhotoShop and Video Editing at a basic level.
