    PCSPECIALIST What do you think of these parts? - First Custom PC

    Noted - do you know any reputable UK retailers? Ebuyer, Scan seem to be showing up plenty. Thank you for ironing that out - there seems to be a lot of 'tax' for useless features. It makes for a confusing purchasing experience.

    PCSPECIALIST 1440p Curved 144hz 27inch Monitor

    Well I was fairly set on the Samsung, but the price has just got from 249 to nearer 300, seems to be the same with lots of other monitors. The must haves are 27 inch, 1440p and VESA. Idealy I'd like 120/144hz, but I don't play shooters - so not sure if I really need Adaptive or this high...

    Thank you for the extremely detailed breakdown - I will for sure be going with a freesync monitor (or Gysnc), but won't be going with curved anymore. I'll let you know what I go with (y)

    That's perfect then! I don't believe I need any other features? So I believe I should be set. I don't plan to upgrade, so like you say I don't need to worry about a futureproof motherboard as everything will have changed by my next purchase.

    Oh my god! So sorry, I didn't get an email telling me you replied - hope you had a fantastic New Year. I will go with the modular PSU and the benefits are worth the extra few quid. I will find out tomorrow if I can get the 680X, if not the Meshify C. I plan to use this PC for flight simming...

    Just had a call with PCS - I found out that they will be getting the 680X back in stock next week (my absolute dream case), so I really want to go with that!

    Hey Oussebon, Apart from the 275R and the H500, there are no other cases that catch my eye - I want something that is simple, clean and minimalistic. The 570X so almost does this for me. The fractal meshify does look very nice but I'd rather choose from the cases PCS has already, do you think...

    It was to put my system on, but after reading the discussion/debate I will reconsider the m.2, but I would like to have 2 drives - so it may be worth spending the few extra quid.

    Oh my. What an awesome response - thank you so much for explaining all of this to me in so much detail. Appreciate you clearing up the mobo situation - do you think it's a suitable motherboard? Would you recommend any others? When it comes to the RAM the price differences don't seem to be...

    Also - Is my specced GPU a reference model? If so would it be worth buying this and installing it myself? https://pcpartpicker.com/product/rqsnTW/evga-geforce-rtx-2070-super-8-gb-ftw3-ultra-gaming-video-card-08g-p4-3277-kr
