    I used to hate RGB, then I used to have it on a solid colour but not full brightness. Then when I moved the PC into the house and the teenage kids insisted I have it on full rainbow mode I got used to it and it's stayed.

    Are standard 1*2 injectors man enough for my engine?

    Either 197 injectors Or some Mégane injectors (not 225) they're Pico style identical to standard ones IWP098 - 280CC/min Or the standard ones will do if you can run a higher fuel pressure of 4bar.

    Yeah it'll be completely different by then. Definitely a different GPU and probably CPU.

    I wouldn't worry, they'll work ok together. If you did want more performance without spending any extra you could get a Radeon 7900 GRE

    In games at 1440P, the 4070 will be at 100% utilisation before the CPU.

    The C40 and C38 could well be the same ICs but binned differently. Whenever I've installed ram before they've always ran at a slower speed and timings than advertised and I've had to adjust them manually.

    The ram should normally default to a slower setting compatible with the motherboard. Then you change it later in the bios. Assuming this is the same ram you had that ran ok previously?

    As for ram, look for EXPO (like XMP for Intel) and stick to DDR6000 with CL30. You won't need to do so much tweaking then, just set it in the bios (make sure the motherboard allows EXPO RAM etc.) Either a 32gb or 64gb kit depending on your needs (32gb is enough for most).

    9700 will be best for CPU based stuff, editing etc. especially if it's multicore supporting software. Single threaded they'll be fairly similar. Won't really matter for games, you'll be GPU limited on a 4070 anyway at 1440P.

    The reason people use 6000mhz with the 7xxx is to run the memory controller at a 1:1 ratio but you'll have to do a big of manual tweaking. The 9 series X3D haven't been launched yet but will be in the coming months, no confirmation on dates and models yet. A reason why the older series have...

    Some places in Australia do it. You might have better luck there (shipping, import/export charges and duties) with economic relationships in place.

    The RGB may be controlled on the case. I have it on mine (Phantek) but I haven't tried it. Otherwise you can normally control it through software. I use some Razer software that's able to link the different components made by various manufacturers.

    A smaller fan has to spin faster to move the same amount of air, and therefore generally makes more noise. Noctua and Thermalright are some of the best performing fans. Thermalright are the better value. Also you can get oversize fans 150mm diameter that fit on 140mm mounting points. Again...

    Generally the bigger the fan the more air it moves and the quieter it is. Also the type of blades and fan depth affect the pressure and how much air can be moved through radiators, filters, grilles etc. I don't have any 120mm fans fitted.

    4K monitor recommendations

    Nope. I sit quite close so it's plenty big enough. Pixel density is better than a bigger screen too. The only thing I would say is curved is definitely better than flat. That's the only thing I miss about my old monitor.

    Depends what resolution you're after. Wide monitors with 2160 vertical pixels are on the way. Or are you happy at 1440? https://www.dell.com/en-uk/shop/dell-ultrasharp-40-curved-thunderbolt-hub-monitor-u4025qw/apd/210-bmdv/monitors-monitor-accessories

    182 rear brake pipes NLA, any other Renaults make a good substitute?

    Get some hardline pipe and make some up, it's not difficult. I did away with abs on my Ph1 and ran all new hard lines from the master cylinder to all four wheels. P.S there's nothing wrong with braided either.

    I wouldn't go for it personally. It's an old CPU and platform from 2016. Performance wise in games it's not as bad as you might expect for an old CPU. Also you want larger M.2 drive ideally. 512gb doesn't hold a great deal now for installing games. Ignore the 1tb HDD, that's only for photos...

    Zero excite. Same for CoD. Didn't buy the last one and I won't bother with this unless it turns out to be decent.
