PC Building Simulator 2 Update 1.17 - Out now on PC, XSX/S and PS5

Hello PC Builders!

Update 1.17 has officially landed with a massive batch of new parts and upgrades. We’ve expanded your customization options with fresh cases from Kolink and Cooler Master, featuring another heavy-hitter in the Big Chungus range. You can also look forward to more high-speed Corsair DDR5 RAM, brand-new storage and memory from our new partners at Biwin, and extra current gen graphics cards from ASRock, Palit, and MSI to power your dream rigs. Best of all, we’ve updated our controller support with more intuitive controls and system tweaks to make your time at the workbench easier and more enjoyable than ever.
