86 days and to be honest. the old rig is getting om my nerves!
Below is my spec, quick question.
I am sure I read it some where but now cannot find it. where do they specify which drive they install operating system on? I am presuming on my build it would be on the 1st M.2 1TB drive, but was thinking to a add a 5 TB storage drive. But then hesitated in case they put the Op system there... some one point in the right direction please. Prolly in front on my face but the wife calls it man looking.

When you alter your order they will ask you again which drive your want to have the os placed on, updated mine last week and it just repeated the question and gave me the same options, you can just click on your M.2 drive there.

I've been on the chat with someone from PCS this weekend and they are suggesting to upgrade to 3090 or to downgrade to 3070 if I want to see my custom build delivered anytime soon...
According to them they have a lot of deliveries scheduled for these GPU's on April but nothing for 3080 normal or strix. It's really frustrating because I have no idea what's the best thing to do, I'm on 50 days in pre-production now and if I don't do something soon, I might set a record of pre-production days waiting for the 3080...
Any suggestions please guys? (And yes, I know it's only my decision to take but, I would like to see what will you do in this case).
Cheers!

You’re still very early in the queue, the average wait is around 100 working days.

If you want some advice on your build, post in the check this spec forum and we can advise. But not on this thread please.
