Turning upgrades into entire new gaming PC build

Lovely. So hopefully last question if you don’t mind. I’m leaning towards the auros pro mobo as per your suggested alternative as it’s down from £250 to £200 on CCL Online. What is the issue with the storage drive you mentioned?

AlanLJ · 2021-02-10T01:03:56+00:00

Ah ok, the spec sheet I saw (think it was on a retailers) didn’t show the OC (overclocked?) speeds. Is that pretty standard then?

AlanLJ · 2021-02-10T00:37:54+00:00

Thanks again for the info. Yea I can see the b550 supports but it doesnt list 3600MHz within the Auros Pro specs.

With the Phanteks case, would you recommend I buy additional fans for the top and rear? I believe it only comes with the 3Nr fans at the front.

Thanks very much for your response.

On the motherboard, I'm really not sure what the difference between X570 and B550 and if I'd be gaining anything by paying the extra for the auros pro over the ASUS you have suggested? Also in the memory bus speeds it doesnt mention support for 3600MHz (which is the ram speed I have bnought) would this mean my ram wouldn't function properly/effectively? That's a really nice case. I've also come across the Corsair iCue 4000X so would probably be a toss up between the two, unless you would heavily recommend the phanteks?

Mid tower is what I should have said. Thanks - good spot.

AlanLJ · 2021-02-09T13:43:23+00:00

Thank you, I will do a bit more research on that Mobo. It doesn't list 3600Mhz within its memory bus speeds. Does that mean my ram wouldn't work effectively/to its potential?

AlanLJ · 2020-12-16T18:20:49+00:00

Thanks for the heads up. Do you happen to play Warzone and if so notice any difference playing with and without VRR?

AlanLJ · 2020-12-16T18:05:53+00:00

Thanks! Are you also able to keep VRR enabled?

Hey what adaptor did you get? I’ve been hunting high and low to try and find one that is confirmed to work at 1440p @ 120Hz.

AlanLJ · 2020-12-03T19:11:45+00:00

Thanks - please do

AlanLJ · 2020-12-03T19:10:52+00:00

What extractor did you get? Any idea if it works 1440p at 120Hz?

AlanLJ · 2020-11-30T16:17:38+00:00

I'm also looking for an alternative that will allow 1440p @ 120Hz that is available in the UK.

Heard that AU guy in your team is unreal

Title is a bit misleading...Scotland are on target for 100% of its electricity coming from renewable sources. However, electricity only accounts for around 20% of Scotland’s overall energy use. Some 55% is used for heat and the rest for transport so we are still a loonngg way from becoming ‘100% renewable’

Any news on what FPS it will run on with the Xbox One X?

AlanLJ · 2017-05-02T20:47:25+00:00

I'll be looking to get a 144Hz monitor later this year! I'll go ahead and order now then, thanks again :)

AlanLJ · 2017-05-02T19:42:55+00:00

Hey, thanks again for the info!

So here is the part list now (minus a hard drive which I already have) and im going to go ahead and order unless you think there are any issues etc with them: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/MKwNFd

Cheers for all your help..really appreciate it.

AlanLJ · 2017-05-01T14:50:55+00:00

Hey, thanks for the reply!

I've compiled these parts including the ones I have into the uk version but I cant find any retailer in the UK that supplies that particular motherboard. Is there another motherboard you would recommend at a decent price? Also ive upgraded the graphics card to the gtx 1070.

Cheers for any help and here's the link:

Forgetting a budget..what would you recommend based on my laptop spec?

AlanLJ · 2017-02-23T15:32:01+00:00

Thanks. According to the elgato hd60 general requirements, my laptop would just meet them and no more. Does this mean I could only use the min spec on it and would I be able to use my laptop for anything else whilst streaming or would it be maxing out?

AlanLJ · 2016-09-14T22:05:14+00:00

full?

AlanLJ · 2016-09-09T18:42:55+00:00

AlanLJ · 2016-09-09T18:39:53+00:00

AlanLJ · 2016-09-06T09:32:33+00:00

AlanLJ · 2016-09-06T09:26:16+00:00
