Hardware as per signature. Is the GPU the weak link/worth upgrading? Thinking of going AMD instead of spending stonks on NVidia again - will either of the 7900 cards give a noticeable improvement?

im not hoping for a £400 card; my budget is probably double that. My point is I don’t want to drop over 50% of my budget on a card I’ll be replacing in a couple of months. I’ll look at 1660 Super for now

I’m about to pull the trigger on an X570/3900X build but I’m undecided on GPU. I had originally planned to go with a 5700XT but got talked into a 2070 Super but I’m now thinking of using a ‘placeholder’ GPU so that I can game now and pick up an NVidia 3000 series card in Q4. What are peoples...

So I’m parking a 2070S build here just for me to refer back to later. Feel free to comment if you like My basket at Overclockers UK: 1 x Phanteks 3 Pin Digital RGB LED Motherboard Extension Cable= £3.95 1 x CableMod PRO ModMesh C-Series AXi, HXi & RM Cable Kit - Black/Light Green= £89.99...

Ah man, I thought the 5700XT was the guaranteed part of the build! Historically I’ve always gone for NVIDIA GPUs but the lads 5700XT was impressive but looking at the price proximity I agree it’s worth a look

thanks, that’s saved a decent amount for me. I switched to the Sapphire Nitro card as I didn’t like the look of the MSI one: My basket at Overclockers UK: 1 x MSI MAG X570 TOMAHAWK WIFI (AMD AM4) DDR4 X570 ATX Motherboard= £219.95 1 x Corsair RM Series RM750 750W '80 Plus Gold' Modular...

Having watched a tonne of GN Vids during the thunderstorm last night I’ve got it down to my original pick, Phanteks P500 or the Fractal R6. And thanks to you kind people the overall build is revised to: My basket at Overclockers UK: 1 x MSI MAG X570 TOMAHAWK WIFI (AMD AM4) DDR4 X570 ATX...

that’s reassuring feedback, thanks. I think a few final decisions come down to whether I want to go with RGB or not. Originally I thought the answer to that question would be yes, hence some of the decisions mae but it seems I can get more bang for my buck by not taking the RGB route. The one...

Th Thanks for this - I wasn’t aware of this product

I am partial to a good flight sim - I’ve wanted to get back into DCS for a while

Agreed, just less wires on an NVM

Yep may not get all the parts here but obvs can’t list them from elsewhere! Forgot to say there would be a 1TB Rocket NVM SSD in it too. My partners lad is using the H110i but I just liked the idea of a bigger rad! Take your point on the RAM - will drop to 16GB

Hi all, I’m back again looking for some advice for a gaming PC for myself after building one for my partners son late last year. He’s managed to get me back into gaming so I’d like something that will run all games at High/Max settings. I’m also considering getting into streaming but won’t be...

Seems the game is known to cause crashes: https://support.frontier.co.uk/kb/faq.php?id=364

I think I’m going to just go for air cooling instead - return the AIO and use the stock 3700x cooler for now. I’ll buy 2 extra exhaust fans from the rainforest and call it a day. We can get an AIO and a bigger case for the lad later

Thanks for this. Unfortunately it was bought through Hitachi scheme so I can imagine RMA is going to be a headache. Also got a young lad waiting to build this for his birthday so given we won’t be overclocking I think I’ll front mount until we can get him a different case. Any ideas on what...

Yes already bought :( will probably replace it later down the line

Need some advice guys. Looking to use the following components in my build: B450 Tomahawk Max Corsair Vengeance RGB RAM H100i cooler iCUE 220t case It seems according to the video (09:50 mark) below that I’m not going to be able to install the h100i in the roof...

VEGA 56 for 1440p

interesting debate with one of the guys at work today - we were both talking about our new builds and our components are very similar. The major difference is that my mate thinks 32GB is essential for a 3rd gen Ryzen build - I argued 16GB was more than enough and it was better to have two slots...
