I'm by no means an expert so take this with a pinch of salt but.. - RAM looks quite low spec compared to the rest of the machine - 4090 seems like overkill - I can't quite work out why you have 2 x 2TB NVMe and 2 x 2TB SSDs, usually you'd have a 500GB NVMe drive for Windows then a second for...

Bump! last question before ordering :)

Sorry, another question. The motherboard in the build above is the only part that is pre-order only so I was wondering if I could potentially change it to one of the others to allow me to order in the next few days. Are any of these suitable replacements?

Sorry only just seen your question! I bought the M34WQ from above. Another quick question.. I think the 1TB Intel NVMe SSD has gone out of stock (it's disappeared from my order). Which of the other options would be the best choice? Or are they all very similar? I've put a 1TB SAMSUNG 970 EVO...

You guys will hate me for this.. I've slightly adjusted the build to max out the budget. + CPU upped to the 7900X + GPU upped to the 3080 Case CORSAIR iCUE 5000X RGB MID TOWER GAMING CASE Processor (CPU) AMD Ryzen 9 7900X 12 Core CPU (4.7GHz-5.6GHz/76MB CACHE/AM5) Motherboard ASUS® TUF GAMING...

I've seen some comments suggesting that the VRAM on the 3070 Ti may not be enough to support the ultrawide screen for games in the future and that I should upgrade to something with at least 12GB of VRAM. They've also mentioned that the PSU should be 1200 to support upgrades in the future...

Thank you for the feedback! I'll be honest, I expected a lot more changes to be suggested! Maybe I should be giving myself some more credit for listening on these forums :) The only real unknown for me is the motherboard at the moment. Is the X670E a solid choice? I don't know much about them so...

Hi, Given the recent death of my old PCS system I'm looking to purchase a new gaming machine to take me into the future! I'm looking to pick up a new system to be delivered early November and have been keeping an eye on the forums with the recent new hardware releases. First question before...

Yeah maybe it is just the computer Gods telling me it's time to upgrade. I was looking to order a new one next month once all the new hardware has been reviewed, benchmarked etc. Perhaps it's time to start looking at what I could spec out

I guess replacing the PSU completely would be the next step after this. I was kinda hoping it wouldn't come to that though..

Yeah I did have a bit of dust in there but tonight I've gone through everything I could think of to try get it working again and still no luck :( I've tried: Switched the power lead Complete de-dust of the inside Cleaned all fans using compressed air Cleaned all dust protectors using...

Hi, I'm having an issue with my PCS machine that I bought a good 7 years ago now and was wondering if anyone here would be able to offer assistance or suggestions as to what might be going wrong.. Basically whenever I push the power button on my PC the system appears to try and boot up and...

Just checking in to let you know that my upgrade was a success and i'm more than happy with the results! It's smashing the frame rate for any game I throw at it at the moment and i'm loving it :D Thanks again for all of your help!

Hi Scotster, Just to let you know that I have ordered the following based on your advice above: G.Skill F3-2400C11D-16GSR 16GB (2x8GB) 2400MHz CL11 DDR3-RAM 1.65v Memory Kit RTX 2060 Super Gaming X I've also done a bit of research and have a checklist of things to do before my fresh install...

Okay i'll keep an eye out for the EVGA cards! Good to know they're almost identical and I can save some money by getting the slightly cheaper options (although I noticed a few are reduced by a good amount!) The next thing is RAM.. I now see what you mean by struggling to find fast DDR3 RAM now...

Hi, Sorry to keep asking more question. I've pretty much decided I want to take the extra leap and go for the RTX 2060 Super however I'm having real trouble trying to work out all of the differences between the different models. I'm quite happy to spend £350-£420ish on the graphics card and so...

Just to make sure, when you say this are you referring to option 1 or 2 in this table?

A price drop where? I'm struggling to find a 2060 Super for anything less than £340-ish Is there any difference with the different brands of graphics cards? There seem to be a large range of brands available with no real obvious differences between them - any suggestions which ones to target?

Yep i'll definitely look to do this!

I do remember speccing my machine on these forums all those years ago and asking for kit that would be semi future-proof so the kudos are probably due to another form member on here for picking those part for me! I've been anxious about upgrading for a while now and have never really worked...
