Hello PC Builders!

We are happy to announce that we’re sneaking in one more patch before the holiday break. In today’s update we’re giving the gift of some much-requested virtual goodies including a wide variety of RTX 30 series GPUs.

Additionally, we’re launching two different YouTube series, a fresh in game application, adjusting existing parts stats with a balance pass and fixing a selection of bugs reported by the community. First though, in traditional fashion, we’re starting this update with an extra special announcement…

To start off today’s content patch we’re welcoming one of the most prestigious peripheral manufacturers to the game, SteelSeries! Players can now change their desks devices to a selection of their famous Arctis headsets, Apex keyboards, Rival mice, Sensei mice, and QcK mousepads.

This also includes exciting highlights from the limited-edition Neon Rider x Steelseries collaboration, perfect for the synth-wave aesthetic.



To celebrate, the team at SteelSeries have also given us vouchers to give away in the USA, Canada and Europe for an Arctis 7 Headset, Apex 7 TKL Keyboard, Arctis 1 Wireless Headset, and a Rival 600 Mouse so if you are in one of those regions be sure to check out the official giveaway post.

Next up, we’re pleased to introduce another new feature for 1.10: The Cloud Notes application. This is a new tool, installed by add remove programs, via USB stick on client computers, and available in the inventory screen. The notes application gives users an often-requested way to write down information, helping players keep track across multiple or more complex jobs.




For now, it’s only available in the base game, as it’s very new we’re expecting to add it to the Esports DLC in a later update.

We're aware of an issue with the Cloud Notes app in the current patch affecting users playing with Japanese or Chinese input. Currently, the issue is only present when actively editing a note and should be fine once you have finished writing. We will investigate the issue and provide an update once our team is back after the Christmas holidays. - This issue has been fixed in a recent hotfix update.

Over the past couple of months, we’ve been looking for additional ways to bring excitement to the community and step up our social media game. We’ve reached out to some of our favourite creators and agreed on a pilot series with each of them – all directly on the official PC Building Simulator YouTube channel. We’re excited to work together on bringing more than just the latest trailers and PC Building raps.

Check out the first episodes with JVN Gaming joining us for extreme PC builds and BigJake901 teaching overclocking 101 below:



Finally, thanks to our friends at UL Benchmarks and following real-world supply increases, we’ve rebalanced a number of existing parts in this release (thanks to better user data samples).



Recent hardware releases have been an interesting challenge for us as a team and the user feedback has, as always, been appreciated.

Today, after many passionate requests from the community, we’ve added Polish localisation to the Esports Expansion DLC. We’re also aiming to provide Polish language options for all store pages in the near future so please look forward to it.

Hello PC Builders!

Today we’re rolling out another patch following on from recent hotfixes. This update addresses a number of bugs along with the highly anticipated adjustments to Threadripper processors and patches for memory overclocking on Intel chipsets. As before, we’d like to thank the community for all of their feedback which has been key throughout development – iterating this quickly wouldn’t be possible without you. But first, along with today’s changes…

Continuing our commitment to keeping up with an incredibly busy hardware season, today we’re happy to welcome Zen 3 processors to PC Building Simulator, with special thanks to the team at AMD. These parts are unlocked at level 33 (with the 5950x being unlocked about 1/3rd into the level itself).



Thousands of fans tuned in to AMD’s recent ‘Where Gaming Begins’ announcements, so as with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX™ 3090 added in last month’s mega update we wanted to get initial versions to everyone as soon as possible. Players can expect a more expansive update to follow soon, and as ever there’s room for traditional speculation over on our discord.

Along with introducing the latest AMD desktop processors we wanted to assist players in conquering Threadripper CPUs in PC Building Simulator. Referring to a large selection of published benchmarks we aimed to bring the thermals of the famous enthusiast chip closer to real world data.



After significant adjustment behind the scenes we’re now allowing much easier cooling at stock, however more extreme builders can expect it to remain a hefty overclocking challenge. Additionally, with these changes we’re allowing ourselves much more room to tune all flavours of cooling in future across PC Building Simulator’s entire CPU range.

In the last update, memory overclocking was inadvertently limited on Intel boards and only appeared when paired with K or X series processors. Today it’s back and working as intended allowing overclocking and XMP to correctly appear on boards across the Intel chipset range.

Finally, we’ve got a several other fixes going into this patch along with some tweaks to the new filter system. Check out the full list below:

• Search will no longer reset on returning to build mode.
  
• Fixed an issue leading to builds using Open Benchtable cases getting too hot.
  
• Fixed an issue with filters combining cases and motherboard options.
  
• Removed a number of redundant filter options from PSU Lengths
  
• Removed ‘RAM type’ from motherboard filter category.
  
• Removed ‘Type’ filter from Case Fans category
  
• Added price filters to items in inventory.
  
• Added ‘Chipset’ filters to CPUs

Hello PC Builders!

Today we’re inviting you to hop on and enjoy our latest patch, v1.9 which is one of our biggest yet. In this update we’re announcing the AORUS Workshop DLC along with heaps of fresh hardware including Intel’s 10th generation Comet Lake and AMD’s Ryzen XT CPUs. Finally, thanks to all the community feedback we’re rolling out some new difficulty settings for the Esports Expansion DLC. But first, by popular demand…

As many of you who reached out to us via social media, Discord, and the support email know; we’re consistently working around the clock to bring the latest hardware to the game. Today we get to reveal the first NVIDIA GeForce RTX™ 30 Series graphics cards in PC Building Simulator, with special thanks to the team at MSI.



Created in collaboration with AORUS powered by GIGABYTE we’re unleashing a brand new workshop space giving players an exciting change of scenery. Featuring a high tech aesthetic, plenty of space to build, and giving centre stage to the famed AORUS ROBOT mascot.



https://store.steampowered.com/app/1416670/PC_Building_Simulator__AORUS_Workshop/

Over the past few months we’ve heard significant feedback from the community around the Esports Expansion. Initially we followed up with a number of bug fixes and pledged to address the concerns reported over the launch. Today we’re pushing a number of adjustments, including difficulty toggles. These can be applied to both new and existing games – tweaking timers, revealing hidden objectives and more to customise your experience. Try them out and let us know what you think.





We’ve also received additional input on our Chinese localisation, this has allowed us to ensure that the translated job objectives are significantly clearer and more understandable to players than before.

Additionally, in this update we’re bringing in over 60 extra parts along with another new feature for PC Building Simulator making it easier than ever to find the ones you want.




Onto the parts themselves, we’re excited to showcase some of our favourites along with a full list of goodies below.

Hello PC Builders,

In case you missed it, last week we released the Esports Expansion for the game and have since been absorbing all the feedback provided by the community.

This first small update is to address some of the initial concerns reported in the launch week, we will be continuing to collate further feedback for future updates.

Changes:

• Added the tool upgrade toggles into this expansion to allow players to turn off any of the automatic help if they wish.
  
• This can be found in the Pause menu (Esc) when playing.
  
• Fixed issues that could cause duplicate PCs and no timer in the Arena.
  
• Adjusted the budgets for the last two leagues for Trinity.
  
• Various localisation text fixes.

If you would like to report an issue or provide feedback please do contact us via the following link: https://www.pcbuildingsim.com/help

We have noticed some bug reports coming in that are actually incomplete jobs - we know some jobs are a little tougher in this new campaign. If you are having a problem with completing a job, our Discord server is often a great place to seek support ahead of submitting a bug report. You can join our Discord via this link: https://discord.com/invite/pcbuildingsim

Is PC Building Simulator going to get further updates?
We have been asked a few times now if this Expansion means an end to updates to PC Building Simulator so we wanted to highlight that this is not the case. Development and content for the original game are ongoing and it will continue to get updated in the coming months.

Thanks for all the support around this new DLC launch, we look forward to your continued feedback.

- The PC Building Simulator Team

Hello PC builders and welcome to v1.8.5, bringing a brand new career mode DLC. We’re delighted to introduce our Esports Expansion, and we’ve also got 16 fixes & tweaks to the main game. Woop!

Take on a new challenge with our brand-new career mode DLC, working as a tech support in esports. Create, fix and upgrade rigs for professional players, and help your team rise to the top!



Start with a humble team, and rise up the ranks as you juggle demands from players, sponsors and the manager. Manage the team’s tech budget, put the right sponsor parts in your builds, and try to remain calm when something crucial fails on match day.



Spend the week in your workshop, dealing with emails from sponsors and managers and watching your phone for requests from players. Earn extra money by completing side jobs for players and your manager. But don't lose focus on the most important task – making sure the team's rigs are perfect for Saturday’s big match.



When match day arrives, set up and tweak the team's PCs in the backstage area, juggling last minute demands from tetchy players while keeping image-conscious sponsors happy. Work fast to complete any last-minute jobs before the stage door opens and it's almost game-time.



Head through the tunnel into the arena, double checking your messages before you set up your team's PCs on stage.



Hang backstage with a coffee while the match plays out. But don't relax too much – things can go wrong mid-game. Swift action at half-time could save the day for your team, or it could all fall apart.



Help your team win matches and Likes will pour in via LikedIn. Keep it up, and you'll be offered a promotion, supporting higher profile players, gaining access to bigger budgets and a fancy new workshop. If your players keep getting results you'll soon be getting offers from rival teams.

• Hold down Shift to sprint (main game and Esports Expansion)
  
• Added a search to the Part Ranking app

We hope you enjoy the update. You can check out the Esports Expansion here!
