I am a previous Scan 3XS customer - I last purchased a gaming PC in 2012. I am considering a purchase this year. I have a few questions.
1) I specced out a 3XS Game 21i PC in September using the Scan 3xs website (the spec is listed below). It came to £2185.96.
A couple of days ago I tried to spec the same system again - and it cost £2409.58. Is there a reason for this price increase? - have the prices of a particular component increased dramatically recently (e.g. the GPU)?
2) The Corsair Carbide 600Q Quiet Full Tower PC Case comes with 3 140mm fans. For a PC containing the components listed below, are 3 fans enough? Should I consider getting extra fans?
Thank you for your time.
