    PCSPECIALIST Any thoughts on this AMD build?

    I pretty much built the same system as you with a different case. CPU, GPU, Mobo, PSU, Cooler, NVME SSD were all the same. Now where i made different choices was First, the monitor. I went with Dell S2417DG. It's basically the twin of S2716DG, only a bit smaller. But hey it was €110 cheaper and...

    PCSPECIALIST Ordered a build on Tuesday. Literally the exact same build is €51 cheaper right now. How does that happen?

    Hey how about this one. So all this time, ever since the Ryzen 3000 series has been launched, the CPUs were bundled with 3 months of Xbox game pass, the day I order my build, they were not showing up. I thought to myself, oh all right the promotion must be over, cool. Lo and behold, now the...

    PCSPECIALIST Ordered a build on Tuesday. Literally the exact same build is €51 cheaper right now. How does that happen?

    Anybody has experience with that? PCS has saved my configuration so for the past week I'd just visit the website and marvel at the build. Every day I'd notice the total price of the system would fluctuate +-€20, which I was completely fine with. That fact didn't play any part into my decision...

    PCSPECIALIST Hi, new monitor maybe?

    There is a 23.8 inch version of the same monitor. It's practically the same thing in a smaller frame The model name is: Dell S2417DG 1400p@165Hz, gysnc etc. There is probably a freesync version as well

    PCSPECIALIST What Are Some Good Sub £100 Headphones for "Gaming" and Listening to Audiophile Music

    Haha, my budget is £100. Most people read the title and never look at the body, you seem to have done the opposite.

    PCSPECIALIST What Are Some Good Sub £100 Headphones for "Gaming" and Listening to Audiophile Music

    Got my pc ordered, picked out the monitor, keyboard, mouse, etc. The last piece of the puzzle is GREAT set of headphones. It's purely for indoor use, no portability or aesthetically pleasing looks necessary. "Gaming Headphones" are probably overpriced, can't imagine there is anything value...

    PCSPECIALIST Cheap?

    Well you're getting a laptop with i7-8750H. The new gen i7-9750H has been out since the end of april. So I don't know if it's actually too cheap, but if it is, that'd be because PCS are trying to clear their stock out.

    PCSPECIALIST Sanity check please

    Well look, I'm not eloquent or have the knowledge to make my own argument, so I'm just gonna copy-paste a comment from reddit thread that made a lot of sense to me, Here it goes:

    PCSPECIALIST Ryzen 9 3900x configuration

    Could you elaborate on that a little please. Two questions here: How do you know the stock paste is corsair branded? and more importantly, why would there be a less concern about a poor paste job. Isn't it the same group of PCS employees that apply the paste every time? I'm ordering a build...

    PCSPECIALIST Sanity check please

    Why not 3800x? Isn't it supposed to be better binned cpu. The way I've seen it explained is, for pure gaming it's between 3600x and 3800x,that's it. Most reviewers got 3700x and 3900x, so there is a lot of data on them, but i feel like those 2 (3600x and 3800x) are going under the radar a...

    PCSPECIALIST Any Last Minute Changes For This Ryzen 3600x + RTX 2070 Super Build Before I Pull The Trigger on Sunday?

    Gooooood point. I was actually looking through the product page of 460x on corsair's website and I noticed it doesn't list the h115i Pro in the list of compatible coolers. Multiple echoing Uh-ohs went through my head. Then I saw your comment and it all clicked straight away. It's official...

    PCSPECIALIST Any Last Minute Changes For This Ryzen 3600x + RTX 2070 Super Build Before I Pull The Trigger on Sunday?

    Uh I'm pretty sure I'll go ahead with RTX 2070 Super. I'm not really concerned about the extra that I have to pay for even if it's not the most cost and fps-effective option. I gotta live a little, I don't really have many other hobbies. So anyway, from what I understand Corsair 460x case can...

    PCSPECIALIST Any Last Minute Changes For This Ryzen 3600x + RTX 2070 Super Build Before I Pull The Trigger on Sunday?

    Yeah I think watched a video of Linus setting up liquid cooling setup which I now know was open loop type like you said. He struggled a little bit and I was like there is no chance in hell that I could do that if THIS guy is getting little bit stumped. But at least for now, i won't have to...

    PCSPECIALIST Is this spec ok for editing?

    This is as good as it's gonna get for laptops. I mean you have top of the line CPU, NVME SSD, rtx 2060. It's near perfect.

    PCSPECIALIST Any Last Minute Changes For This Ryzen 3600x + RTX 2070 Super Build Before I Pull The Trigger on Sunday?

    It's my first foray into PC building, so I was kinda intimidated by liquid cooling and how to set it up etc. I understand that there really is no contest between liquid cooling and spinning fans, but because of my cautiousness I just went for the consensus best CPU cooler which was noctua...

    PCSPECIALIST Any Last Minute Changes For This Ryzen 3600x + RTX 2070 Super Build Before I Pull The Trigger on Sunday?

    Costs €1953 as it is. But I'd like to add 3 more CORSAIR LL120 RGB fans because the case can fit 6 fans and it already comes with 3 pre-installed. But for the moment the configurator isn't allowing me to add them for some reason. Also for whatever reason Samsung 1TB 970 Evo PLUS disappeared, so...

    PCSPECIALIST AMD vs Intel build advice needed, or something different

    Hey you know what, I'm gonna give you an unethical advise. It might even get removed by the admins. So what you do, is remove Windows 10 license. That'll free up around £90. That's more than enough to cover for RTX 2070 Super. Then you still need to get a key, and I'd not recommend buying one of...

    PCSPECIALIST AMD vs Intel build advice needed, or something different

    FYI, they didn't increase the price of RTX 2070 per se, they replaced it with a refreshed version called RTX 2070 Super, which shares the same die as RTX 2080, and is just 5%-7% slower compared to its bigger brother. Now RTX 2080 will be getting a souped up version as well and then the gap will...

    PCSPECIALIST Are Small Form Factor PCs Getting the Ryzen 3000 Series Refresh?

    Oh yeah, I'm aware of that. I don't really need PCI-E 4.0, so x470 mobos would be just fine. But as of right now the configurator is still not showing the new CPUs. I'll definitely have to talk with the live chat people
