You're awesome, thankyou. That's also nice to know. Didn't expect that.

Sorry to ask this here but I'm trying to avoid long wait times on the phone. For people who have ordered their PC's on finance, what was their average date for the first payment ? Only, my PC was dispatched yesterday, haven't received it yet obviously, but I've got through the details from...

Ah, that makes sense. My bad

I think maybe PCS are snowed under and there's some miscommunication possibly. Yesterday, after downgrading to the 3070 from the 3080 I had emailed someone from PCS who I have had email communication with semi frequently throughout the 57 day wait, I let them know that I'd downgraded and would...

I was shocked too. I'd definitely say go for it if you're hoping to get your build before March or beyond (although I don't know how long you've been waiting so you might not be in the March gang?) But yeah, amazingly fast, I wasn't sure if it was the right decision based on the stock issues...

Thankyou! I'll definitely share some pics once I have it, fingers crossed it all comes healthy without a hiccup :)

As an update, just had an email to say my PC has gone into building. Didn't expect it to be THAT fast

I've cracked too, changed from an Asus ROG Strix 3080 to the Asus ROG Strix 3070, one of the reasons being the fact I'm playing on 60hz 1080p, so there really isn't much need for the 3080 right now, it was more of a future proof luxury if I decide to change monitors, or, for those poorly...

You're awesome. Thanks for testing all that, it's a little more personal to hear someone's performance with their 3070 rather than a random YouTube benchmark, so I appreciate that. The fact you're hitting 60fps and above with everything important turned to max has definitely given me something...

That's so true 😅 but I have to take it into account sadly though as it's one of the games I'm looking to play, and if I cater for that, then any other game I'm looking to play shouldn't be an issue, because I'm basing my build on the most demanding and badly optimised lol, but yeah, they really...

That's definitely promising to hear, and I appreciate that thankyou :) Is that with graphics & ray-tracing on ultra and DLSS on quality ? Those benchmarks are from a month ago, so I'm not sure if that's before or after the update dropped? These benchmarks have been the main reason I opted...

I'm curious, what FPS are you getting with what settings in Cyberpunk ? Only, I've watched various benchmarks on the 3070 and it seems to be a common theme that with graphics on ultra, ray-tracing on ultra, and dlss on quality, the 3070 is only able to push around 50ish FPS on 1440?

You make a good point. Would you be able to put together an optimised build, potentially including a 32" 1440hz monitor from PCS with the money saved?

Good thinking, will do, thanks :)

I appreciate what everyone is saying, but I think I should clarify something, I'm not looking to get 1000fps, I merely want to sustain 60fps, and looking at certain AAA games as Snooze stated, they're not optimised, sometimes unable to reach 60fps on ultra on decent GPU's. I've looked at many...

While the monitor is 60hz, I don't have VSync enabled, so I'm not limiting myself to just 60fps though ? My old PC was capable of hitting 100+FPS in some games with these monitors? Judging from benchmarks I've seen, usually FPS will decrease above 1080p as it's more taxing? I do understand your...

My bad, posted the wrong info for my monitors, they're actually k242HLBid 24" 60hz, not sure if that makes a difference though ?

Yeah, that does make sense, but after checking out benchmarks for specific games I play, for example Red Dead Redemption 2, even on 1080p it seems to struggle to average at 60fps on Ultra with anything less than a 3080, same with Cyberpunk, otherwise I probably would have gone with something...

I was planning on taking the drive from my old PC and putting it in the new rig if needed, it's a 1tb, was probably going to use that for games storage etc. Here's the link to the spec: https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/saved-configurations/amd-am4-gen3-pc/0tdJmcTMKW/

Budget would preferably not go above the budget of that build, which is a little over 2.2k. I have three monitors I'm looking to pair it with, they're all 1080p Acer K272HLEbid 27 inch. I have a few games waiting for me (I pre-ordered Cyberpunk, but sadly my PC died shortly before it came out)...
