Ah well, she's served me well.
This may not be the right place to ask but with the issues with GPU availability do we know what the rough lead time is on the 3070's?

I wouldn't say I'm actually suffering from any performance issues tbh. I just thought it was time for a change and because of the age of my current set-up I was limited too what I can actually do. I can't actually remember my original login for PC Specialist or I'd post the build. I'm at work...
