    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Corsair 500D SE / 6800XT / 5900X

    LOL ignore that.. to be fair that's behind the monitor which I had to move to take pictures, so you can't normally see it!

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Corsair 500D SE / 6800XT / 5900X

    I will probably research and buy the best RGB ram (within a reasonable price) for the 5900X eventually. The extra RGB will only add to the aesthetics! I just went with the 16GB 3600MHz from PCS so it was pretty cheap. as for the Corsair fan hub - yeah it was totally worth it, despite how long it...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Corsair 500D SE / 6800XT / 5900X

    One other thing I forgot to mention... when I switched to the Corsair 500D SE case I was not able to select both the Corsair RGB ram with the Corsair H115i platinum cooler due to the RGB ram being taller, so I was forced to switch to the non-RGB ram. Now that I have received the PC I cannot...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Corsair 500D SE / 6800XT / 5900X

    So after 63 working days and then another 2 weeks delay with the shipping (to Ireland) due to brexit - my PC finally arrived this week! I initially went with the Corsair 680X case, however as it went into building I was informed the graphics card was too long to fit the case (it is huuuuge btw...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Happy but disappointed

    Thanks for that. Can I ask you did the detailed tracking for your order on the Fedex website ever not get updated for a period greater than 24hrs? Mine was sent Monday, due for delivery Friday and I'm still waiting... the last update I got was early Thursday morning: Thursday, February 4, 2021...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST I have been on awaiting dispatch since Monday.

    I was a few days in "Awaiting dispatch" too. Unfortunately Brexit is causing a lot of delays on the international orders. My order was actually sent on Monday with Fedex, but still not received (I'm in Ireland), last update is from early morning Thursday leaving some random town outside Bedford...

    Very nice. Looks like you got the XFX merc model which is great. (y) Mine is awaiting dispatch so hoping to get it by next weekend. I'm in Ireland though so the shipping might be dodgy with Brexit + lockdowns.

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Happy but disappointed

    Mine is awaiting dispatch so I hope to get it next week. I'm in Ireland too, I presume we won't get landed with any import tax now because of brexit?! Let us know how you get on Monday.

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Corsair 680X not big enough to fit 6800 XT. Case suggestions?

    So my order has just gone into building this morning with the Corsair 500D SE case. :D I was just wondering if anyone could tell me the best way to relay information to the production team? I had 2 requests: 1. Mark the shipping package as FRAGILE. A few people on the forums have received...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Corsair 680X not big enough to fit 6800 XT. Case suggestions?

    I'm trying to amend my order to the corsair 500D SE case but I'm getting this message: I'm guessing the RGB ram does not fit with the H115i platinum cooler in this case? Does this mean I can't have the RGB ram? :cry:

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Corsair 680X not big enough to fit 6800 XT. Case suggestions?

    You're right, it doesn't look like the 500D SE comes with a rear extract fan. If anyone could point me to the corsair RGB fan that would fit this purpose I would appreciate it! I can buy it separately and fit it myself.

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Zen 3 Tracking thread (5900x/5950x)

    It's unfortunate yeah, but also if what you say is true and it is the XFX merc model, that actually happens to be the best air-cooled 6800XT (according to hardware unboxed) so in a way I am happy with that. :LOL:

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Corsair 680X not big enough to fit 6800 XT. Case suggestions?

    Thanks for the responses guys! The 500D SE would be my second choice I think so will probably go with that, or maybe a Coolermaster. I'll wait until I get confirmation back from PCS.

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Zen 3 Tracking thread (5900x/5950x)

    Good to hear, same with me, however they are saying I need to change the case (Corsair 680X) as it won't fit the 6800XT! What case did you order out of interest?

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Corsair 680X not big enough to fit 6800 XT. Case suggestions?

    Hi! I finally got an email from PCS today saying my order is ready to go into build, however they are saying the corsair 680X is not big enough to fit the card! They've asked me to either change the case, or the card so I can go into building. I'm honestly very surprised by this, I would have...

    I amended from my Nov 5th order with no GPU on the 18th with the 6800 XT at the exact minute it launched. Does it really make a difference whether you amend, or put down your initial order on your PC? I would imagine it's just whoever put in the order first. Who knows though, there is a lot of...

    If you don't receive your PC until March that would be 5 months waiting... Or almost half a year :oops::oops:

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Zen 3 Tracking thread (5900x/5950x)

    We'll see. I find it surprising someone told you a 6800XT was allocated to your order given that my order is older than yours, and I was told today mine is waiting on the 6800XT. I'm just saying don't get your hopes up.

    I didn't get his name. He had kind of a northern English accent. I'm Irish though so I wouldn't be too familiar with English accents to say any more than that. :LOL:
