PC Building Simulator | PC Update v1.12

Hello PC Builders!

Hot on the heels of v1.11 we’ve got another major update. In this patch we’re releasing the often-requested 11th generation Intel processors, adding our first Z590 chipsets, keeping temperatures down with new cooling solutions and expanding our range of high-end power supplies.
First though, can I offer you some Scandinavian minimalism in this trying time?

Fractal Design Workshop DLC

Today we’re collaborating with the Fractal Design team to bring their modernist zen aesthetic to our latest partner workshop DLC, complete with a landscape garden to help you unwind from those stressful overclocking sessions.

Introducing Intel’s 11th Generation – Codename Rocket Lake

Keeping up with the recent hardware release tempo, today we’re welcoming Intel’s 11th generation processors to PC Building Simulator alongside an initial selection of Z590 motherboards.

Intel i9 11900KF

The new blue team processors will be landing in force with both mid-range and flagships immediately.

TOHU

Following in the footsteps of our Murder By Numbers collaboration, we’re bringing a nod to another game our wider team have worked on to PC Building Simulator – Fireart’s gorgeous puzzle adventure title TOHU.

DFL Tohu (Extra Large)

Spruce up your virtual battle stations by flexing some weird and wonderful fish planet goodness thanks to our latest in graphic mouse pads.
