Hi All could you check this spec? Would like to run games at 1080p60Hz
Could someone explain the benefit of the 2nd motherboard to the first? I can't see it. Is there any way to get Wifi on this device? I'm disappointed I can't add any wifi cards but I guess I could always add a USB 3 wifi adapter, are these adequate performance atm?
Can someone explain the 2.5/3.5" bays? Does this mean they can accept either or will I need an adapter to use e.g. the 2.5" Is soundcard integrated ok?
Thanks!
EDIT: Would it be better to wait for skylake? Assuming PCS prices remain fairly static would that be the smarter move?
EDIT 2: I'd like to Overclock the CPU, does this void warranty, how does PCS deal with this?
