    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Umm the new Vanquish DS £999 model in the Review Section...

    Looks beastly and very nice, but it lists at £999. If you click 'configure now' though, as to change the spec but it starts with the default config of the said review model, the total price actually comes out as £21 cheaper??? What gives - glitch or intentional?

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST With SSD boot drives becoming more popular

    Have PCS made any comments about potentially offering smaller SSDs than the mininal 120GB they have in the configurator at the moment? I imagine many may be swayed with a between 60-80GB alternative to act as their first/primary/OS drive. Thoughts?

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Any idea why no option to add extra fans to Mini PCs in the configurator?

    Seems like it would be a good idea to encourage more fans in the small form factor builds and its there in the Desktops, with the options now seemingly back in stock after an absence Have PCS previously commented on this or am I missing something?

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST The PCS Maelstrom T900 Case - how loud and general impressions?

    As a potential case, this is vaguely appealing in terms of cost and supplied fans. With such fans, whats the noise like coming from it under load and generally are there any forum lurkers out there who'd care to share their thoughts?

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST The quality of the VS PSUs...

    I'm currently in the final throes of pinning down a build, and I've seen the VS PSUs described as 'bottom line' in some circles. I may be opting for a Bitfenix Prodigy Mini or Aerocool DS with an R9-270x - would a 550 VS series PSU both be enough and generally be of a good quality - anyone with...

    Thoughts on cooling and acoustics would be much appreciated. Mainly for gaming and emulation.
