Last week I received my new PC.
Fractal R4
i5-3570k
ASUS P8Z77-V
8 GB Kingston Hyperx
2GB AMD 7850
240 Kingston Hyperx SSD
Corsair Pro HX750
Super Quiet 22dba cooler
So Overall what do I think
Pros
* Very Very quiet, hard to hear any noise even when you take the side panels off
* Good packing and delivery
* Time scale from build to delivery as advertised and with in a reasonable period
* Cabling nice and tidy in the case
* Internal temperatures nice and low (might try overclocking - easy on the P8Z77 board)
Cons (Only minor)
* Website does not give me details of the low noise cpu cooler, so took a punt but seems to be quality and quiet item from Titan
* No side window option for the R4. Which I have purchased separately and installed with some nice Blue CCLs which really makes the case look nice, with no effect on sound proofing despite the new windowed panel not being padded as the original panel.
Very pleased with the purchase and does the job I bought it for. Maybe I should of gone for a higher spec GPU but the 7850 works fine compared to my old (6 years) GT7900 which was running Diablo III on !
Why did I buy from PCS rather than Chillblast, Scan, Eclipse or Dino etc ?
Because it had the components I wanted for the build I wanted.
