  1. We also get robbed here because electronics are taxed more so we have to pay about equal to the dollar amount.
  2. Hey guys, I am build my first build and just wanted your thoughts on it, open to any suggestions on how to improve it. I want a build that is yes budget at the moment but has room for improvements in the future (when I have more money). Hence why some of the choices may look a bit weird (b550). If you guys totally disagree with what I'm doing please tell me.

  3. Hi everyone, Building my first build and I have been waiting for B550 just so I have a good upgrade route in the future. Is it worth or should I just get a b450 for now and get a b550 when the price drops?

  6. Thanks for all the replies guys! I can change the case that was just the first one I had found, I'm not fussed about RGB or the case aesthetic as it's going to be hidden in a desk. One other thing, do you think I'd need extra cooling other than the stock cpu cooler? And I chose the B550 for future upgrades as it has PCI 4.0 and will be compatible with future AMD processor's.
  7. Hi guys, I'm new to PC building and want to build a gaming PC for myself to run every game at 1080p, 1440 if possible but not necessary. My budget is around £600 and would be very grateful for some help picking my components. I have these components picked out already but I don't know if they are trash or not! Case: Corsair SPEC-01 RED ATX Mid Tower Case CPU: Amd Ryzen 3300x GPU: MSI 1650 super Ram: Any standard 2x8gb 3200mhz/3000mhz Motherboard: Amd B550 Power supply: not sure due to compatibility with GPU Storage: Any 480-500gb SSD, maybe M.2 don't really know much about that? Again if anyone could help I'd really appreciate it. Thanks, James
