Ordering/ The Forums/ Customer Service:
What can I say... The community here are a credit to you as a company and themselves - all showing a love for the products you have provided them with. Customer services are fantastic - on the two occasions I spoke to someone they were very helpful and honest with me ( I asked about upgrading my delivery time to 5 day fast track after the 5th day in pre-production and was told that I'd be wasting the money if I took the option (not exact words but you get my drift). 7 days from ordering to arrival - wonderful.

I was pleasantly surprised when looking in the case this morning to find a Jetstream version of Palit's 780ti - Thank you so much PCS.
Delivery:
Promptly delivered at 10:29 this morning, perfect condition (well done DPD).
The obligatory issue:
I knew there would be one, nobody is perfect! The HDD provided wasn't sat in the hot bay correctly but after I had cut the cable tidy holding the Hot bay solidly in place, taking it out and pushing it back in again - it was fine.
The computer is running like a dream Almost silent, so incredibly quiet compared to my last pc that I was worried for a little while - upon checking the fans, all 5 are whirling away nicely. The cables are tidy inside, all I need to do now is install a new copy of Windows 7 (which arrived this morning too - i realized an OEM version of windows can only be used once.... silly me)).
Windows index marks 7.9 for all but the processor which is 7.8 - I'll give out some game frame rate specs when I'm done installing the OS.
A few pictures for you all - please excuse my camera, not the best in the world. Once everything is done I'll do a comprehensive Picture collection for the Pics only area- including the inside.
Thank you PCS you've made me a happy man.
