    About a year ago I received a lovely PC from PCSpecialist. I rarely put the system to 'sleep' because it usually does not wake up again. But I did just do exactly that - I made sure I didn't have anything (other than Google Chrome and Filemail) running, because I suspected it might not wake up...

    PCSPECIALIST Can't get a 5950X, so settling for a 3970X instead - today. Thoughts, please?

    Right - I'd like to (at last) get this thing ordered today, and welcome anyone's thoughts and opinions, please, before I "pull the trigger"! I'd REALLY like a 5950X and I'd REALLY like a 24GB RTX3090, but it looks like I'd be waiting forever for those, so it looks like I'll have to make do with...
