Thank you! I got that RTX2080 when it was new and since becoming a father the year previous, I lost a lot of gaming time. I'm starting to get it back again now hence this enquiry.
The Intel and Nvidia scene is crazy to watch so AMD seems to be performing much better this time around.
Thank you so much for the notes. This really helps explain the differences. You can see this build lasting as well?
My current PC struggling to run the latest titles as smooth as I'd come to expect left me a little shocked and saddened, the i7x2080 combo did serve me well...
Absolutely right, details I should have posted originally.
Max budget: £2500
Used for gaming, watching streamed content, photo editing & light Photoshop.
The main monitor is a ROG Strix XG27AQMR (1440p 144hz)
The ethernet card is a mistake, I must have clicked it on accident when browsing the...
Hi guys,

I'm a bit out of touch with the tech required for editing as I've not upgraded since Uni, can you see if you would change any of this below to be good for photo/video editing and after effects? I...

Hello guys
I had a pc that started running extremely slow, then would just black screen with no bios or beeps on start up.
I thought this could be a mobo/cpu problem, and seeing as my components were going on 9 years old figured I could upgrade too.
I went big and bought an i7 8700, rog...
Hey guys,
I currently have an Intel® Core™i7-2600k, looking to upgrade.
I'm leaning towards the 7700k but need a bundle for motherboard and RAM as I have DDR3 and the motherboard bundles I've looked at all have DDR4.
Does anyone know if PC Specialist do motherboard bundles with RAM?
Cheers...

So I ran MSI Afterburner and it says its on auto at 33%. So I changed it to manual and moved the slider up and down, pressing apply and no change after leaving it a few minutes.
Edit - after a little more testing with Afterburner and putting it to 100% I hear my 2nd GPU fan spin up but my 1st...
Heya PCS folks - I've been playing a lot of the wildstar beta and to make it run smoother I was told it isnt Crossfire ready, so I disabled crossfire on my graphics cards (2GB AMD RADEON™ HD6950 x2) and ever since the fan has gotten progressively louder.
Is it over worked or is the fan busted?
Hey everyone, so my girlfriend is gotten into the wildstar beta and her laptop runs it like a turd through grit. So I've just glanced over the laptops you guys have (Looking to pay on finance as I'm not able to pay straight up, and i'd like to keep it below £20 a month if possible.)
Heres what...

If its possible I'd like...
