    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Configuring a PC - error?

    Thanks @Rakk , a bit of googling based on your suggestion turned up exactly what you're saying. Given that my PC has been dispatched, I may have been lucky in choosing plain (i.e. "low profile", no RGB etc) RAM. And maybe that allowed enough clearance in the top. Or as you say, the GPU replaced...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Configuring a PC - error?

    Could anybody give a clueless person some guidance? It's not definite, but I may have to make a snap decision within the next week or two, and I'd like to be ready. I'd be using this PC for games (mostly flight sims), VR, work (software development). Realistically, most of its time will be spent...
