Bought a new rig, with my old 5700XT serving as the GPU until 3080ti. All ready for my new house for cinema room/man/gaming cave.

Is that only a 650watt PSU

Not so sure. Not with 3 x 8 pins.

Yea I'd have gone higher with a Ryzen 9, 3080 GPU and the AIO.

Isn't the Founders 3080/3090 intended to use the new 12-pin connector which is recommended for 850W supplies?

It only about £20 extra for the 850watt

With that kind of build i would of got the 850watt for sure

Agree that 650w is probably cutting it a bit fine, no point spending all that money then scrimping on the power supply!

New desk mat to go with the keyboard and secondary monitor arm I got, trying to revamp the desk a little bit.

Thought I would give this a try and really enjoyed it. Spent 2 hours having a fly around Telford today. At 96GB I left it to download whilst I cut the grass.

I could do with some of those, where did you get them from if you don't mind me asking? Were they straight forward to fit?

You should return that if you can via Steam and then just get the xbox pass as stated above, save yourself a bit of money

Thought about it but did not fancy the monthly sub. I even thought about getting the boxed edition but the 10 DVD install put me off.

Ok got a new PSU to be safe following feedback.

LiE · 24 Aug 2020 at 18:45

Good stuff, I always recommend over speccing on PSU, especially as it's usually £20-30 more.

Yes there's generally not a huge difference between a budget PSU and a good branded one. Very often overlooked.

Doesn't everyone keep a heavy rubber mallet next to their PC/bed?
