Overclocking

As the PCS+ comes with such a mind-bending overclock out of the box it’s not a great surprise to see there is very little left in the tank. This absolutely isn’t a bad thing. Nothing is more irritating than paying the price premium that pre-overclocked models demand and still having tons of headroom.

Another impressive element of the PCS+ is how well that cooler works. It really does keep everything whisper quiet and nice and cool. Great looks and great cooling. Count us in. Time to see if great performance is part of the deal too.
