Well! After 1 month and a day, i finally have my PC in my room and hooked up. (Completing this post on it whilst i download my latest graphics drivers.) I cant fault PCS for what they have done, everything has worked from the go, they kept me up to date with the process and if there were any problems i got an email. If any stock was not in they gave me a timescale to wait and also alternative options (I originally ordered a 590 which wasn't gonna happen.) Connected to their phone service within 2 minutes at calling to get an update. It did take a while to build etc due to parts in or out of stock but the rig was worth the wait. Just the fact its twice the size of my old rig makes me go **** yeah. The community on the forum has been great despite my occasional moan (but everyone does that when they are waiting for something!) My only niggle with the whole process has been the delivery. I ordered before 10am, it didnt come before 10am and i get a card when i get home from work saying they tried at 9.45am when i was sat on my doorstep waiting. I dont have invisibilty perk just yet so i dont see why they couldn't have just been honest and say they delivered it late. GRRR! But anyway, i picked it up from the depot today and the box etc was pristine and i went on my merry. Im away for work as of tommorow so im glad its all sorted and i can take it with me. Relief! I would say its been a bittersweet experience as i have built my own computer before but i just wanted it done by professionals with the money i spent so i dont mess up. It looks great and nice and tidy! Truley professional job by PCS thankyou! Shame Yodel made me a bit grumpy! Will defo recommend PCS to friends.
No faults as yet with the PC, Just setting up with all my drivers etc and then ill give a more in depth review of my rig with a few pictures. So watch this space
Got RAGE comming on friday to truly test my graphics so yeah! Awesome! Ill try getting some pics and some benchmarks for later tonight! Thanks to all the forum community for helping me with my queries and being a nice bunch! :turned:
The Pics
See Attachments for pics!
I cant comment on performance yet as im still getting Steam and my games! Bah! But ill have a look when ive got more time!
Thanks for reading! xx
