After along wait my new pc has finally arrived!!

Customer service - PCS were having a lot of trouble getting these new Z170 Chip computers out due to trouble with ASUS motherboards so overall it took 5 weeks to be built and delivered which is long but it showed me
that they actually took pride in their work and would not allow it to leave the warehouse with any issues.

I had many phone calls with them and everyone I spoke to was great and took the time to go check out everything I asked of them.
I had one bad experience with live chat but It was no issue I just used an alternative form of contact.

Now the PC itself.

Specs:
Case: NZXT NOCTIS 450 MID-TOWER GAMING CASE (BLACK/RED)
Overclocked CPU: Overclocked Intel® Core™i7-6700k Quad Core (4.00GHz @ upto MAX 4.60GHz)
Motherboard: ASUS® MAXIMUS VIII HERO: RoG, PCI-e 3.0, SATA 3.0, LG1151
Memory (RAM): 32GB KINGSTON HYPER-X FURY DDR4 2666MHz (4 x 8GB)
Graphics Card: 6GB NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 980 Ti - DVI, HDMI, 3 DP
1st Hard Disk: 250GB Samsung 850 EVO SSD, SATA 6Gb/s (upto 540MB/sR | 520MB/sW)
2nd Hard Disk: 1TB WD BLACK WD1003FZEX, SATA 6 Gb/s, 64MB CACHE (7200rpm)
Power Supply: CORSAIR 650W CS SERIES™ MODULAR 80 PLUS® GOLD, ULTRA QUIET (£69)
Processor Cooling: Corsair H100i GTX Hydro Series High Performance CPU Cooler (£89)

This PC is a jack of all trades as I do all forms of multimedia from editing to gaming/streaming

The first thing I noticed was how quiet the case was. The NZXT Noctis 450 I personally think its looks fantastic.
I would say its a NZXT H440 with a Batman suit on. its very sharp and sleek I would recommend it to anyone looking for one of the larger mid towers out there.

I've only had this PC for a day so I haven't yet done anything that would really push it but the 980ti is running my two DELL U2515H 1440p Monitors without fault.
I Checked all the cable management and it was great everything was correct and hidden as much as possible.

peripherals: (not bought for PCS)
Keyboard: Corsair k70 - 10/10 rating. perfect for anyone who wants a sleek mechanical keyboard.
mouse: Razer Death adder Chroma - 10/10 rating. This is hands down the best mouse I've ever owned.
Monitors: 2x Dell U2515h 1440p 25" - 11/10 rating. These monitors are simply stunning and the stands are second to none.
Webcam: Logitech C920 HD - 10/10 rating it does its job perfectly.

I would 100% recommend PC Specialist!
also thanks to everyone on the forums who gave advice!

Excellent, looks great. I have a very similar spec setup with the same keyboard and monitor (just the one though, excellent aren't they, great value...). I have only had mine (Azure) since Friday, its flawless, very quiet, running everything fast and smooth. I really like your case.
