    Thanks @Ekans2011 @AccidentalDenz and the OG @TonyCarter Have eventually managed to order the Build today, with the 9800X3D (which meant I blew my £2,000 budget, but thought sod it!). Thanks for all the support in helping me pull together. I know it's for my son, but am sure I'm going to get...

    OK thanks. Not sure I understand the point that "The 7950X3D is just a 7800X3D + a 7700X"... All this is quite new to me. You think the 9800X3D will be available on PC Specialist at the same time

    Hey @TonyCarter This obviously came back into stock (7800X3D) and I missed it. Now not there till around the 20th November and my sons birthday is on the 28th. What would you think is a next best option? What does the X3D offer? Would you suggest either: - AMD Ryzen 7 9700X Eight Core CPU...

    Wowzers... Even more thankful for you taking the time to respond to my random question. Presume you are still an advocate for PCS though. Looks like there's all the options that I need. Cheers

    Hey Tony. This is great thanks. How much more would the 4070 Super graphics card be and what do you think the difference between the two would be?

    Hey tony. Again I havent even thought about monitors... I'm baffled by the PCs to start with. What would you advise? I don't want this to be a complete entry level PC, but I also dont want to have a huge spec. Happy to be guided. Am not sure at the moment whether I should be looking at a...

    That's just for the PC, but again if I need to go to £2k i will do. Not sure I want to buy an entire new set up in <12 months when its not up to scratch, but a build that I can upgrade over time would be helpful
