Do you think it would be worth it to get an LED strip of 15 white lights to light up the case along with 2 white LED fans at the front? A strip of LEDs is £10 from PCS. Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated, please. Thank you.

I would want decent airflow with a reasonable amount of space inside the case, which I think the Fractal Focus G might be okay for. Would this case still be okay with the CoolerMaster MasterLiquid Lite 240 High Performance Liquid Cooler? I note that the price difference between the 750D and the...

I have looked at reviews on YouTube of both the 750D youtube.com/watch?v=Qm5lsP1zcnA and Fractual Focus G youtube.com/watch?v=DWzYYLSNd1k. The 750D has lots of space so that is very good. The Fractal Focus G - looking at the review on YouTube the components can be a tight fit inside the case...

Hi, @Oussebon here are my current PCS build's case dimensions along with the two case options that I have been thinking about for my new PCS build. In terms of the two cases Fractal Focus G and the Corsair - which one would provide the best airflow? I am thinking of cable management, where the...

Hi, @Oussebon I know you have previously suggested a 'fixed' spec to save money and if getting a cheap case with extra fans just get a better case. Well, what do you think about this revised spec: a different case, no extra fans, no thermal compound, but a better CPU cooler? Case CORSAIR...

Hi, My PC is now up and running and everything is good. I had to buy a SATA power extension cable to connect the SATA power cable connected to the psu so that it was able to reach the HDD. Thank you for your help it was appreciated. (y)(y):)

Hi, The Corsair TX650m is now installed and all of the drives etc have been connected to the psu. I have powered on the PC and the Asus bios screen is shown after the inital beep. But the SATA lll HDD, which is set as the primary boot drive doesn't boot because it normally boots from that drive...

I would be getting the monitor about 1 month later. Thanks for suggesting the above 'fixed' spec but I prefer to able to customise my PC, e.g. with a higher capacity m.2 drive for the OS, games, applications etc. But it is a very good price. What type of performance for games do you think I...

Hi, I have a few questions before I actually build/buy a new PC. What make/model(s) are the 16x speed Blu-ray drives that PCS stock? Can the fans pre-installed in the FRACTAL FOCUS G BLACK GAMING CASE (Window) be changed for a different colour? If the pre-installed fans cannot be changed...

Could you make any suggestions on a monitor, please? Thank you.

Thank you for your suggestions. Just to clarify I will also like to be able to play the latest games with very decent graphics as well as what I have already mentioned. With this in mind, would my choice of processor still need to be changed? Thank you.
