It’s around 20 - 25 days I believeHi,
any idea what are current waiting times for RTX 2060? I ordered a build with it a week ago (on the italian PCS site). I hope I'm posting in the correct forum
Cheers!
Well, it will soon be a month from when I ordered my computer and it's still in the pre-production phase. I'm getting tired of this, to be honest. I wrote them an email asking about waiting times and got a vague answer "very soon" (probably). I'm tempted to cancel the order and order a new rig via Amazon. We'll see.

As above, 20 - 25 working days. So you’re nearly there

Good job you didn't order a 3080 then!
Is it definately the 2060 that is holding up your order? There are plenty of 2060s in stock at a number of places at £380-£450 so I'd be surprised if PCS takes that much longer. Check with production. You could always cancel the 2060, buy that separately (you could have the card by tomorrow) and perhaps the rest of the machine will then go into production. It might be another component though that is the actual bottleneck.

He's not at the average build time yet, there's nothing out of the ordinary here, he's just in the queue.
I think OP just needs to bide their time, looking at when they say they placed their order, they’ll be on 18-20 working days at this stage. So the very soon they were quoted is likely bob on.
I'm actually 1 day beyond average time (18th day of preproduction, 2 days of the other phase that I don't remember the name, current average is 14-17), but the thing is this - I ordered a "pre-built" computer (or whatever it's called, from https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/gaming-desktops/) and so avoiding the manual configurator hoping it will go into production right away, which obviously isn't the case (they are treated as manually configured computers). If I knew that before, I would certainly not ordered it. Anyway, I did email them a few days ago asking if my RTX 2060 is the bottleneck and asking if I can change it for another card, however they didn't respond to that question, they just said that they have a big back log and that my computer should should probably go into production soon. That was 6 days ago, to be precise.

Only next day computers are pre built, any other joins the queue as normal.
Weekends are not counted as days, so yours will be build within the next week with the current estimates if you’re currently on 18 days. Processing is not part of the queue system.
Yes, that’s part of your issue. They’re still custom systems and not pre-built, they’ve just been pre-configured for those who don’t wish to spec their own. Had you ordered from the ‘Next Day PCs’ section it’d be a different story.
As someone has already mentioned, a more realistic expectation is currently 20-25 working days. The 14-17 working days quoted is not a guarantee, and PC Specialist have a link on their home page relating to the COVID-19 situation stating that lead times have been impacted.
