Build Time
FAST TRACK 5 WORKING DAY DISPATCH

My build took 5 days from order to completion and delivery with DPD was fantastic with a 1 hour delivery slot.
I did make some changes to my case by adding 3 new corsair AF140 with white rings to compliment the case and a further 2 Corsair SP120 installed to the H100i GTX for improved cfm and db level of fans at load. I did remove both HD cages to further improve the airflow to my GPU which was simple but did require the removal of the front fans to remove 2 retaining screws, which was not an issue as I replaced the fans anyhow.
My only negative comment would be that the BIOS was not at the newest revision from Asus which was required for stability, but seeing that at this time a new BIOS seems to be coming out every week due to the Z170 memory problems I cannot really fault PCS for this and updating the BIOS is a trivial task anyhow.
Thanks PCS!
