    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Upgrade

    How often do people upgrade computers and monitors/TVs? Haven’t found any issues running any games so far at 1440p except RE 2 remake (some RAM issues). I think the GTX 1080 ti in SLI should last me for at least 1 more year. Unfortunately no GPU upgrade options on liquid cooling systems with...

    When recommending a new system and when the budget allows we usually recommend an M2 drive as the main drive. The ones usually recommended are the Samsung SM961 or PM961.

    Still undecided about a suitable monitor. I was considering the Acer Predatpr X34A but not sure if it is what I need. The Acer predator Z35 is not 4K but has 144hz and it is cheaper. Would it be worth it spending more than £600 on a monitor? I wouldn't say I play very often but when I do I would...

    Worth it? Suffice to say that today’s launch of the new VIVID 200Mbps Gamer package confirms that a 20Mbps upload speed has been adopted and that Virgin’s Traffic Management thresholds no longer apply (this includes its removal from uploads). However this appears to be a new package tier...
