Put my mum's project to one side for too long now so back on this one (thanks @Tetras for all the help on my build, and the above suggestion for mum's!)
Put this together with a little help from the OcUK builder:
My basket at OcUK:
1 x Kolink KLM-003 Micro-ATX Case - Black (SKU...
Ah OK thanks both. Not had a thin bezeled monitor before so was just checking,;only other time I've fixed a black border was on CRTs!
Popped the link there as I still couldn't it to embed in the post
Got an Acer XV272UKV (which I love, first 1440p I've had) a couple of weeks ago but noticed today the screen doesn't stretch to the edge. Or maybe it does and this is normal?

Couldn't find an option via the OSD to change anything
So big thanks to everyone here! You guys made the process so much more amazing with all the help and answered queries
No monitor attached yet as it took waaaay longer than I expected but powered on first go (hoping it POSTs, will find out tomorrow)

OK thanks for the reassurance, just imagined a new piece of kit wouldn't look like it fell down the stairs.
Not done a pc build for 16 years but I'm giddy with excitement already
Ah cool I was wondering if I could do it cheaper by buying windows 10 as apparently it's still a few upgrade to 11.
Just wondering if I need the pro version, I'm thinking no
So, brand new and this seems like a really dodgy job

I'm assuming/hoping it will still do it's job as it should though?
Aye sounds like would be easier to get acd key. Found a window 11 pro for £10.. Decent score on trip advisor (can I mention website names for this, not an ocuk competitor as ocuk don't sell windows right?)
Hello again!
Today the GPU arrived as the last piece for my new build and it just dawned on me I don't have an OS. I'll be going for windows but wondered if there's better places (cheaper..) to buy it rather than the Ms official site? Would buying windows 10 be a better option as that has a...
That 7900xt caught my eye at £750 and will likely be what I get this week. Am thinking of spunking an extra £110 on the nitro+ if its worth it (probably not I imagine)
Switched to a Lian Li case and AIO and 99% sure this is what I'm after:
My basket at OcUK:
1 x Gigabyte B650 Aorus Elite AX (Socket AM5) DDR5 ATX Motherboard (SKU: MB-5BB-GI) = £269.99
1 x WD Black SN770 2TB SSD M.2 2280 NVME PCI-E Gen4 Solid State Drive (WDS200T3X0E) (SKU: HD-58G-WD) =...
Hi hi, I'm finalising the pieces for my new setup which will be a 7800x3d, 6800xt, 32gb DDR5 on a B650 board. No idea how to calculate what wattage is needed but thought I'd go for at least 850W as I intend to replace the GPU in 18ish months time with whatever is capable of 4k 144fps at the time...
