    Upgrade Time

    I think I will go for the 3700x actually. My thought process around the x570 board was that although there is nothing that would need the pcie gen 4 right now, the most likely thing for me to upgrade in the future is my gfx card, which might be needed in the future. I am hopeful this will last...

    2080 Super live on website?

    This one looks reasonably priced and has a year warranty https://www.overclockers.co.uk/gigabyte-geforce-rtx-2080-super-gaming-oc-8192mb-gddr6-pci-express-graphics-card-gx-1b7-gi.html Any reason not to go for that one?

    AMD Zen 2 (Ryzen 3000) - *** NO COMPETITOR HINTING ***

    Is the ASRock X570 Taichi really that good of a board? People seem to be snapping them up at the lower price elsewhere. Is it just for the extra value, or is it that good?

    Upgrade Time

    Ok, that looks good, thanks. I actually have a PSU that is really, REALLY, overkill for what I am using it for, and it is a few years old now so the roe I think about it, I might even look to get a new one. That being said I currently have a SuperFlower Leadex Platinum 1200W Fully Modular "80...

    Upgrade Time

    I am in the need for a new PC now, and I wanted to look and get most of the build sorted before Zen 2 hits on Sunday and wanted a bit of help. I have monitors, keyboard, mouse and drives (although I would like to upgrade to an nvme for the boot drive, and maybe a new ssd for my games), and...

    PC Won't turn on

    It is the GPU, thanks guys. There goes the most of the resale value, but it was the first thing I tested today so on the plus side at least I didnt have to spend too much time testing today lol

    PC Won't turn on

    The test that doesn't work has everything plugged in. I guess my next step is to try and take bits out one at a time and see when it kicks into life? I have just never see it not boot at all before to be honest (although my experience is fairly limited) The case switch works with only the...

    New Monitor - 27" 1440

    Hi Guys, I am currently using a Dell U2515H but I have decided I want to get a new monitor so I am in market for a new monitor. I have been looking at a few different options but have been edging toward going for the Dell S2716DG. It looks to have great reviews on here, and decent ones on...

    System Upgrade £500-600

    Thanks for the advice guys, I wasnt sure I would get anything better for that sort of money. I have been really happy with my 4770k and I haven't even looked into O/C yet either. No my board is not covered unfortunately, but I think I will get a new one and maybe get a nice new monitor or...

    ramthor's monster build

    Where does it say it doesn't get hot? It is a glass enclose with a bunch of high performance PC parts inside. My case has good airflow and quite a lot of fans and it still get's warm so it isn't unrealistic to think it could get hot, or at least warm. He also didnt make up rubbish he said he...
