Ah, thanks very much for that! Exactly what I wanted.

I'll preface by saying I bought the PC from PCS a few months ago and it has been working fine, minus a few connection issues. I decided to buy a Samsung 970 500gb M.2 SSD last week, and after installing it (motherboard is an Asus Z390-P, so compatibility isn't a issue), it wasn't showing up in...

Settings says it's 2.4 GHz, and thanks for that link - I'll give it a look and will leave an update at a later date. Not seen any fixes suggesting channel congestion (never heard of it) before, so thanks for sharing. Just restarted the PC and things seem to be running as normal. I'm sure the...

Just to give an update, what I did seemed to fix it - because in the last 9 days it has been (generally) alright. It dropped perhaps once or twice in the last 9 days. Today, it's back with a vengeance. No reason I can see for it. I'd been using the PC for about 5 hours perfectly fine, but this...

Strangely I don't have a Roaming Aggressiveness setting in the advanced part of the config. Four other settings but none that relate to roaming sensitivity. I've also changed from public to private WiFi in the settings, will restart and see how things go...

They were already screwed on when I unboxed the PC, although I haven't reoriented them. The WiFi was working the day I got it, but as of yesterday afternoon increasingly dropped out... Irritatingly usually when I sit down to use it. It can be fine for an hour if I leave it, only to disconnect 5...

I'll preface this by saying the PC was ordered from PCS last month and arrived on Saturday in fine working condition. The first day, I set up a few things and everything was working normally. By yesterday evening, the WiFi connection started continuously dropping out for the PC, however the...

As soon as mine entered building it was rapid. Went into building 3 days before scheduled (Tuesday night), was in building roughly a day and a half. Then onto testing for a day and a half. Waiting for dispatch around Friday lunchtime, and told to expect it some time on Monday. The following...

This is all a bonus considering the original estimated build date, being 2 days early I'm trying to manage expectations! It's still in building, but has had the name of someone working on it added about six hours ago (though if this means it's physically being built, I don't know). I've been...

Exactly a month ago, 8th of June. 22 working days. It said it entered building last night, its still in building this afternoon, so whether they were just getting the necessary stock together or something along those lines, I don't know (it did strike me as odd that it entered building at 8pm)...

I had three updates and all stated that the PC would go into building on Friday the 10th July, even the update yesterday. Just an hour ago it went into building (21 working days), at eight at night(!) Just goes to show even the most recent updates can be inaccurate, and 2-3 days earlier than...

Thanks for your reply, much appreciated. I think you're probably right. Not sure any benefit I would gain would be worth £120-ish, so I'll probs stick with the 9600K.

I'll preface this by saying the PC I've ordered is a few days away from going into the build phase (so no changing to AMD), and already has the 9600K selected as its processor. It'll be paired with a 2060 Super, CoolerMaster 212X Black edition cooler, a 750w PSU and 16gb of RAM, and will be...

Thanks very much for your response, I'll certainly be sticking with the 2060 Super then. It's knowing that there's a beefier card for only a little bit more dangled in front of you while you wait... Hence I amended from 1660ti to 2060, to 2060 Super! A slippery slope, but worth double checking -...

The PC I've ordered (and is due to enter building next week) has a RTX 2060 Super, i5 9600K, 16gb ram, 750w PSU, etc for a decent mid-range-ish build. I'll be using it for general productivity, 1080p gaming and a bit of Maya 3D modelling (not professionally but a hobby), however after reading...
