    PCSPECIALIST FrostFlow 150

    Many of PCS branded coolers seem to ID Cooling originals. My Frostflow 100 V3 is an SE-224-XT for example. Overwhelmingly positive reviews discovered during my own research on ID Coolings stuff generally speaking.... However, with the majority of reviews the performance is tested as a...

    Exactly right. 16GB will not hold you back with Photoshop ultimately. With Lightroom, it can ruin your day if you don’t have enough for some of its heavy functions, but PS is OK. Get the basics right and extras like RAM will be easy additions later. The mistakes I’ve made with my build are all...

    PCSPECIALIST Need help building a PC

    Oh no! I think something might have been lost in translation! What I meant was that I edited my post after you might have read it first time around and before you first quoted it (you had 'liked' it before I edited it) - as I wanted to echo what you said originally - yes a deidcated GPU would...

    Agreed AgentC. I edited my original post to add that your suggestion is a good one. (y)

    PCSPECIALIST Need help building a PC

    Howdy all and Happy New Year! The suggested builds above are almost exactly the same as my build except for a couple of differences. Personally I believe Photoshop will benefit from a dedicated GPU over an iGPU, but that would depend on the use case of course. However @AgentCooper suggestion of...

    My X was definitely wrong! I never liked her that much truth be told.....

    PCSPECIALIST Small problem with PC

    A strange question given that it sounds like you are still in your own bed. :rolleyes:

    Mercedes to let their appeal go.... The right call ultimately I think for the sake of the sport and their own team - time to move on.

    PCSPECIALIST Fan Speed - 4000 Rpm

    A great explanation @SpyderTracks ! (y) I think the majority of AIO pumps run somewhere around the 1800-2,000 RPM range from what I can recall so that makes perfect sense.....

    You see? We do agree after all!! All of the above is 100% spot on in my view. (y)

    Don't you have two of them on your contraption? At least F1 only uses one! (Circles that is!)

    That's a good read!!

    PCSPECIALIST Very Unsatisfactory End to an Exciting F1 Season

    I know that what you feel is the case - but that interpretation would be untenable for a variety of reasons. That makes it unlikely to be easily defended. OK - fine, let's call it my interpretation so. But you also have your interpretation Barlew. So back off a little bit perhaps? Nobody here...

    PCSPECIALIST Very Unsatisfactory End to an Exciting F1 Season

    The claim of using the race directors authority to supercede all other related rules sounds reasonable in principle, but in practice it is utterly untenable. The Director can't make things up as he sees fit or the entire system falls apart. The decision that 48.13 supercedes 48.12 is also...

    PCSPECIALIST Very Unsatisfactory End to an Exciting F1 Season

    I won't add too much extra to the debate here - but suffice to say: Masi needs to be sacked, plain and simple. I am a Lewis fan and feel he was mugged really, but I also feel for Max as there will be a cloud over his first Championship because of how things have been handled - not just in Abu...

    PCSPECIALIST My horrendous PC Specialist experience

    You're absolutely right. They do get it right on the overwhelming majority of cases. You have been unlucky and I'm sorry to hear it's been a bad experience for you. I do think our modern world is worse than ever at metering expectations sometimes. We are so used to click and receive these days...

    PCSPECIALIST Pc condensation from transit

    The best thing for anyone else who might be waiting for their delivery is: Don't even open the box when it arrives if you can avoid it. Give the whole thing a good half day to come up to room temperature before you open it. That will prevent any condensation building up in the first place. So...

    PCSPECIALIST Slow M.2?

    Ah brillo - so it's taken an element of RAM speed in the mix then? That would explain a lot! (y)

    Yes but CrystalDiskMark is even further off the mark on the last image there.....
