Lol. No problem.

Mine arrived exactly the same way on Tuesday - including a ripped carry handle! I thought it would be a box within a box as well. Luckily it seems no harm was done and my PC works fine.

And yes very happy with it! :)

Looks good but I’m still setting it up so haven’t too much to report. Certainly far, far faster than the 8 year old PC it replaced but then I wouldn’t expect anything else!

That’s very similar to my build which was delivered yesterday. I used the Fractal G case and swapped the SSD for the intel M.2 SSD based on advice I received here (I had an RX 570 as well but I doubt you would want to change that!).

Anything FPS or RPG (Borderlands, Fallout, POE, Skyrim) tends to be on PS4. So generally games that you really need a mouse to play (in my view anyway) like Civilisation. I may head back into Eve Online at some point as well - but I used to play that with the settings dialled down anyway. I was...

So this is now in building :) hopefully see it next week! I’m now looking at monitors so any suggestions on a monitor that would match up well with this spec? Ideally no more than £200.

Actually using the intel m.2 ssd, with the case you suggested and a 2TB hdd is the same cost as the spec I’d outlined above (less the usb card as well). So I think I’ll be going with that :) Thanks again.

Thanks again. Yeah the motherboard has a usb c port so I can happily drop the card. I have also been playing about with various storage configurations (like dropping the M.2 for a normal SSD) so I’ll factor in your case recommendation and see what I come up with.

So I've been thinking this over and would still prefer to upgrade to a new PC. I've upped my budget a bit and wonder if these are a bit more balanced: Intel version £956 Case PCS 6003B BLACK CASE Processor (CPU) Intel® Core™ i5 Six Core Processor i5-9500 (3.0GHz) 9MB Cache Motherboard ASUS®...

Thanks. I was going to buy an SSD and not upgrade but didn’t think about the graphics card/ RAM as well. I’ll look into doing that - or find a bigger budget :)

So back in 2011 I bought this: COOLERMASTER ELITE 310 BLUE CASE Processor (CPU) Intel® Core™i5-2500 Quad Core (3.30GHz, 6MB Cache) + HD Graphics Motherboard ASUS® P8H67-M LX SI: MICRO ATX MAINBOARD, LG 1155, SATA 6.0Gb/s Memory (RAM) 4GB SAMSUNG DDR3 DUAL-DDR3 1333MHz (2 X 2GB) Graphics Card...

NVM - problem has solved itself :)

Hi I'm looking to buy a new PC later this month and, after weeks of playing around with an AMD build, this weekend I have completely changed my mind and went for a shiney new Sandy Bridge pc. My budget is £850. Original build was this: Case COOLERMASTER ELITE 310 BLUE CASE Processor (CPU) AMD...
