In all honesty, that might be the PC I need. Has the PSU level and brand I want, a CPU on my short list, and basically covers all that I would need with the GPU. The case looks really good, and I am sure the younger folks love the lighting, for myself....as long as it works I could without.

I swear to Christ you all are mind readers. My ONLY gripe is that it has a liquid cooler, an that is only an issue because I am old and liquid anything near my PC makes me nervous.

Welcome to the forums coltgros.... You can always ask DS Customer Service about your specific order, but DS website says Estimated Ship Date is 20-25 (business) days...hang in there! Waiting is the hardest part!

Hi! I did end up ordering lvl 3 of this system on the 22nd but have been stuck in stage one since the 1st day. I'm assuming it might just be backed up because of tax season but I'm sweating especially because my current computer is on it's way out any day now

Are those two little slots below the PCIe slot in the drawing used for things like USB 3.0 Expansion Cards?

That would be nice if so, because I have a USB 3.0 7-port PCIe Card waiting to plug into my Lynx when it arrives.

Even if using one of those little slots doesn't eliminate the use of the two PCIe normal slots.

I'm only using one Graphics PCIe slot [GeForce GTX 1660 Ti] but adding a USB PCIe card and sitll having the other PCIe card would be super nice.
Cheers.

G'day Uruvsuurt,
Firstly; the PSU was reduced to 600 watts in my order, due to a comment by my "Sales Support" guy. I told him what I would use this Sim PC for and he agreed that my GPU and PSU choices were both adequate.

I'm going to use this primarily for American, and Euro 2 Truck Simulators, plus my old SimBin GTR2, and new Asseto Corsa and Project Cars 2.

I do have FSX, TANE and Links [Golf], and Sail Sim 5, but I'm gonna try them in a different setup. [May keep my ole PC for them]. Or... I may just have a split PC with separate Monitor, Keyboard, Mouse and Controllers for that stuff. [Experimentally Speaking].

AS FOR THE LIQUID COOLER Uruvsuurt, I chose that model primarily because it is SEALED & MAINTENANCE FREE. For over 6 years, I've had a CPU Cooler on my present Sim PC, and it's a dream at keeping my CPU from catching fire with the heat it can put out. This i9 9900K could fry Spit!!! So it's a must to include. I was kinda horrified to see CPU coolers that came with reservoirs which needed to be kept topped up!!!

Like Guns n Alcohol, Electronics n Water should never be in the same box. Right!
Cheers

Keep your old PC running until the new Lynx arrives.
With the impressive quality of these builds, and the huge numbers of new and re-new buyers, I don't expect mine until perhaps early July.

GOTTA BE PATIENT YA KNOW.

Don't watch the POT, or it won't boil!

It will come in good time and there is absolutely no need to go "Belly-Aching" to Alex or the others. IT WON'T CHANGE A THING.

Remember: "Digital Storm Lynx, wasn't built in a day.'

Cheers.

Mine came as described with a 750W Corsair PSU. The Lynx Ultimate is by far an awesome PC and exceeds my needs for a desktop.
