So, haven't gotten around to writing a review until now, been too busy enjoying my new toy. (Sorry, no pictures 
, no camera, and a very messy house anyway!)
So above is my spec.
First of all I spent a lot of time refreshing my order status and worrying about delays, when infact there was none.
My PC was finished and dispatched in 11 working days without any issues.
The PCS staff on the phone lines were the most polite customer support I've ever experienced, Andrew, Matthew and one last employee were the ones I spoke to, and they were a real credit to the company.
I like the fact that when I was speaking to Andrew on my first phonecall, he went down into the place where all the work goes on with me still on the line, he checked my case, and read it all out to me and made sure I did get the Sniper Black Edition case, I just felt very welcomed when you get treated like that, they don't shove you on hold, he took me with him on his headset and spoke to me on the way down.
During the building process Gorman and others on the forum were also of great support.
Not much else to say about the building process, just a top quality support.
Now then Yodel and their delivery.
Well all I can say is that I had my concerns with the complaints about delivery here on the forum, however, my experience with Yodel was top notch.
As you can see from the tracker, It came to my local Depot at 8:21AM, and was delivered to my front door 2 hours later at 10:21AM.
The box was untouched, not a scratch on the box, no rips nothing, perfect condition. Only concern is what the driver thinking when my partner signed for it, Miss D Proud... It's Blackburn, not Proud, so haven't got a clue where that came from.
Either way, all in all, Yodel experience? Top notch, 5/5 star.
So my PC.
I got it out of the box, seriously excited, very surpriced to see how bloody massive the case was, it's almost twice as wide as my old, and not far from twice the size in all dimentions. The inside of the case had so much spare room its ridicules.
I had a minor problem installing windows 7, since it's a new BIOS which looked all fancy, I spent about 15 minutes figuring out how to change the boot to CD, after that was done I got everything sorted.
Got everything online, started installing my games, it was agonising... WoW and Battlefield BC 2 were first on the line, both having a agonising long waiting time to update, so had to sit there and wait to try my new monster. But once ingame, it blew me away. WoW on max settings with over 200fps, and lowest 60 in the centre of were everyone collects, few hundreds of people roaming about.
Running BFBC2 at max without any lag whatsoever, the eye candy value is immense.
I've had a minor problem with my wireless network card, but I think I sorted it.
So all in all;
PCS: Top Notch, no complains, only compliments. 5/5
Yodel: Top Notch, no complains, only compliments. 5/5
New PC Named Levitation: Top Notch, minor issues which have been resolved easily, Tons of compliments and full of satisfaction. 5/5
I cannot praise PCS enough, I could rant on and on and on about how absolutely awesome their service and production quality is.
Many thanks to everyone I spoke to at PCS, everyone who worked on my PC, and thanks to Yodel.
I will definitely get mine, and my partners next PC's from PCS, I doubt I'll ever order a PC from anywhere else and I will keep recommending PCS to everyone I know.
