    [SOLVED] How is this build?

    You are right, I am a big fan of RGB, unfortunately for my wallet. As tempting as it is, I can't down grade my RAM kit for RGB. Besides, it's the easiest thing to upgrade, so I'm probably gonna get RGB ram later down the line, same for the RGB fans (unless temps are terrible after I build it)...

    [SOLVED] How is this build?

    I'll pass on the form factor change. I have a LOT of space on my desk, a big case will help liven it up. Plus, I don't like cases with blocked fronts. Even when they have some air holes on the sides, it can't beat a mesh front. Otherwise, Thanks for the help! I'm gonna take some of your PC...

    [SOLVED] How is this build?

    I'll think about the cooler. I'm worried about the system cooling, as the room I'm putting this system in can get hot. Plus, £50 isn't so bad, its going towards better efficiency (in theory). In regards to tweaking, go ahead! As long as it is below £1500, I don't mind.

    [SOLVED] How is this build?

    Hi all! Hope you're all doing well! I'm looking for opinions and suggestions for a system I'm planning. https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/p6Lm9G I plan to use this system to help me with my animation and game design course, but more importantly to play games with my friends. I tried to hit a...

    [SOLVED] Where should I buy a Pre-Built system?

    Thank you for your answer Yeah I know about their finance schemes. The problem that I'm having with them, which is probably should have put in the thread itself, is their reputation. I've heard and seen people order from CyberPower and complain about less than standard PSUs or poor build...

    [SOLVED] Where should I buy a Pre-Built system?

    Hello, dear peoples of the forum page! I come from far off lands, seeking guidance and knowledge from those superior to I! I've been in the market for a new pc for awhile, something that can play games such as modded minecraft, G-Mod and portal 2, perhaps spec'd higher so I'm not limited to...

    [SOLVED] What graphics card for a Ryzen 5 2600?

    I've been trying to plan a PC build for little over a month now. I've been non stop researching and trying out different configurations, mostly with different GPUs and CPUs. I've gotten settled on the Ryzen 5 2600 however I'm not as set on a graphics card. My choices are: RX 580, RX 590 or GTX...

    Build Advice 1660 build.

    [ Oh, sorry. I got thrown off by the question mark 😅 The fan choices are mostly for aesthetic. I'm going for a blue and white build you see. Although, there is some logic behind them. The small fans have 50+CFM while the two big ones have a lower amount, not by a lot but they keep with the...

    Build Advice 1660 build.

    I don't really want to go for used. I've had a terrible track record with used goods so I tend to avoid the option BTW, you can find 8GB RX 580s under £180. The one I had in my build, MSI RX 580 ARMOR, was about £160.

    Build Advice 1660 build.

    Okay, so I was messing around with PCpartpicker and I tried to make a build with a 6GB 1660 graphics card without changing the CPU, Motherboard and Case of my other build. The odd thing was that the build came out being cheaper than my RX 580 build, and from what I know, without impacting the...

    [SOLVED] How is this?

    I gave myself a few watts for future upgrades. But perhaps 700W may be a bit too cautious.

    [SOLVED] How is this?

    I'll keep that in mind. If its good as it is, that's good enough for me. I intend to mostly play games like Garry's mod, Portal 2, Sims 4 and Minecraft (Heavily modded). A long with some more professional uses, such as animation and digital art. I'll upgrade to 1660 another time. I'll put some...

    [SOLVED] How is this?

    So, I've been having a tiresome few weeks. I have been trying to sort out this PC, finding a good balance between aesthetic and power. With this in mind. I've made this build. The idea behind it is to simulate a sort of Portal 2/Aperture Science theme (Which will be improved by a few decals...

    Build Advice A Computer Building Conundrum

    I thought you were getting over zealous. Because I saw SSDs being cheaper than usual, but 1tb? How could that be cheap? They're much faster and, from what I've been told, don't break as easily as mechanical drives. Ironically, I took your advice and now I have knocked £10 off the overall cost...
