    PCSPECIALIST Is PCS shipping the FE 3080 or an AIB? Want to place order asap but has to be the Founders Edition... anyone knows please? Thanks!

    It's all in the title but I'm afraid since they are charging £875 that is is the Asus Strix version.....too bad....Maybe they can wait for the FE to come back in stock for my order, I just would rather clarify the whole thing before spending almost 2k on a system! Thanks to anyone who can...

    PCSPECIALIST 2400mhz vs 2666mhz and standard TIM vs cooler mastergel. New Recoil 2 15 RTX on Way!!

    Ok, so pretty excited as I literally just ordered a pre-built Recoil 2 15 RTX 2070 MQ to take advantage of the same day disptach (no need for paying extra for the 3 day build) as I need it quick and living in France adds to delivery time to begin with... However, I was hesitant because ideally...

    PCSPECIALIST Flash 80W TDP Max-Q to 90W TDP vBios possible?

    Since the 2070 MQ and 2080 MQ come in 2 flavours (80W-90W) I'm really curious to find out if it would be possible to flash a 2070 Max-Q with an 80W TDP to a 2070 Max-Q to get that little extra juice... Yes, I know it is not recommended, it will void your warranty, your laptop will burn, you...

    PCSPECIALIST Whats the point of the 2070 Max-Q?

    Looking at the available new line-up of RTX laptops and the first numbers coming on the web the 2070 MQ seems to perform the same if not slower than the RTX 2060...? I was going to opt for the 2070 MQ in the Recoil 2 but now I don't see the point of spending the £200ish for no increase in...

    PCSPECIALIST How bad is the Proteus VI screen?

    Hi, I'm stuck between the Proteus VI with its more powerful 2070 full fat (more perf / higher clocks) BUT apparently not so great screen (is it though?) and the Recoil 2 with better overall looks to my taste and better screen but with the disappointing and gimped 2070 Max-Q we have with this...

    PCSPECIALIST 2070 Max-Q base and boost clocks specs in PCS's notebooks?

    I have been trying to ask how the 2070 Max-Q is configured in the laptops PCS offer with no one being able to give me an answer. FYI, the 2070 MQ can have 2 different base and boost clocks configured by OEMs ( 885-1080mhz or 1185-1305mhz ). I think this is dependent on if the OEM chooses to run...

    PCSPECIALIST Do I need to repaste? 780m

    Hi folks, I just got my new Vortex 4 a few days ago. I went for the optional thermal paste but I'm seeing temps of 90C (88-89C average) when running Crysis 3 with no overclock. Does this sound normal? Do I need to repaste? I'd hope that PC Specialist would've done a good job but you never...
