Polygon-
Tried many varieties and not been impressed by any. Even if framerate and latency is acceptable, image quality never is due to all the compression. There's a reason 4k HDR @60fps needs decent HDMI cables.
All built successfully last night and very happy with it. Process was definitely a pain, requires stuff to be done in the right order. Like making sure to connect the cooler fans to the MB before installing the GPU which makes everything inaccessible.
Only current issue is it won't recognise my Samsung telly as being capable of anything beyond stereo sound (audio is going to AV receiver via ARC). Am sure this a software thing, but damned if I can find a solution.
Edit: Had a sense I'd written some of the above before but put it down to deja vu. Clearly going mad.

Figured it would be silly to let an Nvidia 3080 remain redundant after upgrading so have just taken delivery of this little lot. SFF case with built-in PSU and AIO cooler feels a bit like cheating, but I've not done something like this before and understand it can be a right pain in the arse making sure everything fits.
Shoud be very decent for gaming from the couch rather than the desk where I spend too much time already. Also, with the couch shoved out of the way I'll finally be able to do some proper VR without the hassle of moving a 20kg desktop from one end of the flat to the other.
Scan are ridiculously efficient. Placed order at 6.30 last night and standard delivery said Monday so I stumpted up the extra couple of quid for weekend. Got an email at 9 saying it had been dispatched, but still didn't expect it today. Might ask for a refund.
