Yeah, I look at this very skeptically too, that's why i'm saying I would be fully happy if it got done before holidays! But in reality after reading the forums, I wouldn't be surprised to wait until january to see the build. I guess our hopes now lie with the manufacturers releasing secret stock...

I placed my order on 12th of October, so I guess we should be close in the queue? That actually doesn't sound too bad if it's true! I made up my mind to be happy if I receive the build before christmas Yeah that's what I figured I should do too, I'm fine with talking in english as I've lived in...

are the phone queues really that long? I was planning to call from EU today to change my build into AMD from intel, but I might not be able to afford that either. I guess trying over email works too, hopefully the amd stocks aren't that bad, but i'm waiting for a strix 3080 anyway :)

That's reassuring, thanks! I think i'll be fine, just wanted to futureproof in case I get more projects with 4k H.265 video files :)

How would you separate full system builds and single orders though? It wouldn't be in the same queue and most people wouldn't care about "really vague indication", you would have to wait for the same amount of time in any case

I have a 1TB 970 EVO as my current system drive, and yeah, that is all well and known, just that I don't want to spend on an m.2 that I would swap out later, so I'm left to consider my options if I go with a smaller m.2 and add non-m.2 storage later if needed or go the other way around and leave...

Ok, I'll keep that in mind. What about the gen 4 m.2's? Are they worth it? Had an idea of taking a 500GB of that and moving my system there.

Interesting, I didn't seem to find too many bad reviews. is the PCS drive a rebranded version of something else? From what the builder says it has much less write speed which concerns me. Maybe i'm overexaggerating and it wouldn't affect the video editing part too much :)

Thanks for both your answers. I do think that I shouldn't really skimp on a new build like this, so I might just stretch the budget and go for the best cooler available, maybe just downing the m.2 to 1TB. Sometimes the RGB-less versions are the same, but cheaper, so had to ask :) I don't mind it...

I might give more reading into the AIO's then, just that the good ones that don't go bad or loud after 2-3 years are expensive and I would be really stretching my budget more than I want. Unless I dial back on the storage and go for a 512GB m.2 to save now, it's stretching my budget by about 230...

Hi, thank you for your input. Also answering to Scott - I mostly chose them by myself while looking at my current budget, was lurking here just to follow the whole 3080 situation and reading up on some parts here and there, sorry for misleading you with that :) For this kind of build, would...

bumping my own thread here, would really love any advice on this matter, especially now with the extra fan shortage

Hello everyone, been lurking here since the start of this Autumn following a few threads, got my order on 12th of October, a pc mainly for video editing, music production and gaming, so I kinda need bit of everything here. Using a 3440x1440 144hz monitor. I feel like i'm pretty happy with my...
