My New System - "Fantastic Service Provided"

[Zack Valentine]

Hey guys, quite new to the forums. Waiting to get stuck into Battlefield 3, bought it for Playstation 3 and couldn't believe how ridiculous the graphics were so went for a new desktop. Can't wait for it to get here so I thought i'd post the spec and price to see what you guys think and also i'd just like to say what an amazing service PC Specialist provide! I ordered this yesterday and it began processing at 9:05am it's already in Quality Control today so I might hopefully receive this on Friday, all being well! I'll definitley be using PCS again in the future.

Looks good, though I think a Caviar Black or Seagate Barracuda for the primary hard drive would've benefitted you, cos they've faster than the bog-standard Sata-II drive by quite a way - I'll be the bottleneck in your system, cos the rest of it should have no problems anywhere for a good while

Yeah, i've been doing some research and it quickens the boot time/program startup. Might upgrade in the future. Just got to say though, this service was RAPID. Check this out...
