Thank you so much !

Hey Guys! Hopefully I'll do this right this time, with a bit of help I came up with this configuration, I never made a pc custom like this I have lots of questions any help would be appreciated!

I'm using it for gaming primarily and studying etc, 2 monitors but main one is Benq Mobiuz 165Hz 1440p, maximum budget is £2000 but don't mind going a bit over, as this build does.

I have a few questions regarding PC Specialist, I currently have a PC Specialist Pre-built and it's great has done me wonders! This custom PC, is made to order, can I trust the quality, the build etc?

I'm even opting for the cable management options and sleeves

My biggest concerns are the fans, currently this case comes with 3X pre-installed side fans, I want a rear fan and the additional ones so I opted for 4 Extra corsair ARGB fans hoping it gets mounted to a rear exhaust and maybe all 3 bottom fan slots?, I also opted for the corsair radiator 3x, so will they mount it correctly? hoping it will get mounted to the top.

Is there communication during the build process? That's what I'm nervous about, I've never ordered a PC like this before.

lastly how is the build, are there any improvements could I save anywhere, any tips? I heard this AMD CPU is really good, I've never had AMD before I was worried about 8 cores but learnt AMD have really good powerful cores and intel has E cores sometimes.

Any tips would be appreciated and feedback on this config, thank you!

I really want to order and hope the quality is good and everything is correct

(Apologies I used the wrong tag to post this)

Fan Support:
Top: 3 x 120mm / 3 x 140mm
Side: 3 x 120mm / 3 x 140mm
Bottom: 3 x 120mm / 3 x 140mm
Rear: 1 x 120mm
Fans Included:
Side: 3 x 120mm UNI FAN TL120mm The case says this, so I added 4X corsair fans, I assume the TOP 3 will be utilized by the radiator, side 3 are filled so bottom and rear are left 4 fans

"This custom PC, is made to order, can I trust the quality, the build etc? "

the cable management and build quality will be up to the same standard as a next day prebuilt

I'd ditch the spinny drive, they are very slow, and you could just use an external drive if all you want to do is save personal files, videos photos etc

is there a reason for the case like looks or something?

[tough cape]

okay okay that's a good idea thank you, my current pc I game on hard drive and man it's time to change

[tough cape]

Honestly i just want a case which is big, and can have lots of fans so I went with this one not rlly sure, I like cases like the Hyte y60

since the fans in the Lian Li case you picked use different connectors to the rest of the system it can be a bit of a nuisance with the softwares used to control them

[tough cape]

Dude thank you so much I appreciate it! It even has the extra fans included so everything is all corsair and it's a bit cheaper than my one, I'm definitely saving this. I'll order sometime soon and hope it all turns out okay

Does radiator mounting position matter? I can select top front or side I'm thinking top for best exhaust

[remote kelp]

front favors the CPU tempratures slightly, top favors GPU tempratures slightly, since you're planning on 1440p gaming, the GPU handles more of the load, so top is recommended, especially since the 7800X3D isn't a wildly hot CPU, and you are using a 360mm AIO

Thank you!! thats really good to know I never knew that

Do you have a pc from them or is your custom built? I'm hoping it's gonna be really good quality

[remote kelp]

mine was custom from PCS, and it was top quality

and please hold off on the ping on reply, ta

[tough cape]

sorry my bad, also perfect!!! that gives me confidence then thank you for all your help I'm definitely gonna go ahead with this one

[remote kelp]

if you wanted a very pretty case, and one a bit more like the Lian Li you picked, you can go for this one
it won't need any extra fans with the radiator on top all fan slots would be taken, and the case is a little cheaper still, so more money saved bringing you under the 2000 mark

all that said, the airflow isn't great, so it would mean slightly higher temperatures, but it's not like it'd be an inferno

[tough cape]

Thank you!!! I'll check this one out too, all in all is the spec of my pc config good for gaming?

I'm leaning towards the Corsair because all Corsair icue fans hehe

[remote kelp]

they are all corsair fans, but they all use "standard" ARGB connections, so no need for that POS program iCue

and as for gaming, all configs are great for gaming, the 7800X3D is a gaming CPU all the way

[tough cape]

Would anyone happen to know if price changes happen? Because If i don't order this now I definitely will November / Christmas time do the prices get changed on pc specialist website regarding components, maybe Ill get lucky

[remote kelp]

it can change daily, a quote would only lock it in for 5 days

[tough cape]

thank you!!! thats really nice to know and thank you for all your help :)) i'm feeling way better about this and would love to show you once the PC arrives

[tough cape]

Just ordered!
