    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Initial Guidance based on Models

    Hi And Thanks. I pushed the button - upped the single disk size. I have not gone for a second disk as anything that will consume a lot of resources will be on the network, or main desktop, etc. As you say, I can easily add one. Windows Pro - In honest truth it was probably historic reasoning...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Initial Guidance based on Models

    So, based on my thinking I am looking at: (probably overkill, and will probably up the storage as that is not going to change price substantially.)

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Initial Guidance based on Models

    As suspected, thanks! I was looking at Latife and that was lower resolutions screen but better other specs. And then the iconic range and that was i9 and up...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Work Horse PC run down please

    Your build does not appear far off. The only compromises i can see would be dropping the RGB lights on cooling -£30, and dropping wifi on the MB -£25. To confirm, were these chosen over the other options for a reason? I have no need for light, and I always hard wire -so...

    Thank you both for your response - all incredibly helpful and extends what I need to be thinking about. Budget wise - understood, I am being unrealistic with my expectations. I can increase this, as it is my livelihood, and what I spend 12+ hours on every day! I don't want to hit 2k for the...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Work Horse PC run down please

    Thanks for the response. To make sure I am understanding correctly. The components I originally chose are effectively bottlenecked by the Motherboard, and so I would not get the best out of them. Is that correct? I notice better MB, faster RAM, faster disk, better cooling, but that the graphics...

    1) Your budget (you might not have a budget as such, but you will have an idea of the max you'd like to spend) Ideally around the 1200 ex VAT place point - but can do more if it brings longer use potential 2) What's the PC / Laptop for (gaming, workstation, heavy VM use, etc.) <-- as much...
