It's typically a day in build and 24hrs in testing. If there are no issues found in testing then I would expect it to be dispatched on Friday.
My laptop has been 'in testing' since Monday afternoon. Crossing my fingers that it'll be dispatched today! I'm hoping the longer than average test time isn't a sign of anything having gone wrong, and is just PCS being overstretched. Although if there is something not quite right, obviously better that PCS catch it and fix it before it's out the door. The estimated build time for laptops has shot up since Monday, from 7-9 to 12-14 working days. I had thought about cancelling my order and replacing it as the same spec is now cheaper, but I didn't want to be that guy disrupting the build queue even further. I'm starting to feel glad I didn't reorder if it would have meant another 3 weeks to wait.
EDIT: There are still no notes attached to my order (unless I just can't find them). But I now see there has been a sub-order created on my account to switch the wireless network card, so looks like a compatibility issue with AX201 + AMD. I'm assuming/hoping that's a straightforward fix and it'll be out today!

AFAIK it shows as testing until it's passed. It may have gone back into build for a part replacement and then back on test again. As you say, PCS will make sure its right before they ship it.
Exactly a month ago, 8th of June. 22 working days.
It said it entered building last night, its still in building this afternoon, so whether they were just getting the necessary stock together or something along those lines, I don't know (it did strike me as odd that it entered building at 8pm). Hopefully it'll be built by this evening to test tomorrow perhaps.

TBH it's only going to take a couple of builds fail testing and need to go back into build for part replacement to throw their anticipated schedules out. I'm sure it's not personal.
This is all a bonus considering the original estimated build date, being 2 days early I'm trying to manage expectations!
It's still in building, but has had the name of someone working on it added about six hours ago (though if this means it's physically being built, I don't know). I've been trying to distract myself for the last 22 working days, but by by now I'm checking up on it a few times per day!

Might be the most I have spent on anything...ever... But now comes the long wait until August 11th...ish

I just want my PC my monitor was delivered early (I'm away at family this weekend, so I got it delivered there) which means I could have played with it tonight.
On a positive though, I've got from the 29th build date to to the 22nd. Not too much longer (I also buckled and went with a 2070 super not teh 2060...)

As soon as mine entered building it was rapid.
Went into building 3 days before scheduled (Tuesday night), was in building roughly a day and a half. Then onto testing for a day and a half.
Waiting for dispatch around Friday lunchtime, and told to expect it some time on Monday. The following day, I get an email saying it's coming that Saturday afternoon, which was entirely unexpected. Dispatched on the 24th working day, all-in-all a few days earlier than expected.
Top notch.

There's no way of telling that, usually it's built within a day, but then it's got to go through testing, and if a fault is found then it will have to be troubleshot and fixed, then put through testing again, so anywhere up to around a week.
