    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST rtx 3070 sales preference according to upgrade / build ?

    I got the same e-mail for my new build this morning, and I must say I'm thoroughly impressed that Mr Shields and Mr Barker completed the build, testing and QCing in only one day. Nice one gents!

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Final spec check needed before order

    Oh, I didn't realise you could do that; that sounds like the best way forward.

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Final spec check needed before order

    Good; thanks for casting your eye over it. All things being equal, I'd be prepared to wait the extra week for the 5800X but my concern is that doing so would put me down the queue to get the RTX 3070 straight from release date if (as indications seem to suggest) demand is high and PCS only get...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Final spec check needed before order

    A few weeks ago, I went through the process of configuring a spec for my first new system in seven years, and as I plan to order it later this week, I just wanted to put the spec up for 'final approval' by the experts on this forum before I go ahead and spend a substantial amount of money on...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST First new machine in (nearly) 7 years

    (Apologies to ValeImages for plagiarising his thread title) Long story short, the trusty PCS system I've used since February 2013 is giving up the ghost, and considering how ancient it is in PC terms anyway, it's time to get a new one. I'm a low demand user, just internet, videos and music...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Advice needed on audio and video connections

    (Firstly, I'm not really sure whether this belongs in this forum as opposed to the Peripherals forum, so apologies if I've chosen the wrong one) I received my brand new PC Specialist system today and am very pleased with it despite only having had time to set up the very basics so far. The...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Yet another spec

    Hi, My current PC is beginning to give up the ghost after five years of usage so I'm currently trying to sort out a new one to buy. I'm not really looking for anything extravagant, just something for predominantly basic home use tasks; audio is quite important, though (as my PC is basically my...
