I considered switching the card but then I'm best emailing to find out if it would have to be ordered too. Could end up waiting longer if it's not actually in stock. 15th Working day so I'm really hoping it arrives on the 10th.
Thinking about reducing order to just the machine now taking off the monitor, speakers, keyboard etc.
Yeah I understand it wont make a difference to build time. Had ordered all together as wanted to get everything together and didn't think I would have time to visit a shop etc. I've ordered an IPS Panel which I know are prone to backlight bleed depending on what batch you get it seems to be luck of the draw, going to a store may mean I can test it before leaving to make sure it's not a problem. Same with keyboard and mouse etc as can have a test of them first.
More frustration. Yesterday morning was told it was on the build list for that day, tested through the night, and would probably be with me by weekend... Today it has been updated and is now 'due' to be built on monday - 16th day in pre-production. Ordered on 22nd. Trying to be patient but this is quickly turning into a negative experience.

Considering that graphics cards are being bought up left right and centre and considering they do not keep all items in stock, they may wish to consider highlighting which products that are not in stock and which ones are.
Not a bad idea.Considering that graphics cards are being bought up left right and centre and considering they do not keep all items in stock, they may wish to consider highlighting which products that are not in stock and which ones are.
Not sure what has caused the delay on my end. I've gone with a Nvidia GTX1080 and when I phoned on working day 10 to check things I asked if there was a specific item holding it up and all was in stock. The biggest frustration has been being told a day the build will start and when the day comes it gets pushed - so its feeling down, then excited, then down again. The staff are great on the phone I just think their information seems to change often so they are unable to give a difinitive build date until it's actually built.
Since my last post mine has actually moved along which I wasn't expecting. Got an email out of the blue saying it has been built so definitely happier it is moving, hopefully will be able to get a saturday delivery if it is ready in time. HerrPete - Hoping you get some movement soon as feeling your pain brother.
On a seperate note how do you give someone 'rep' on here? I see a lot of people saying it but don't know how...
Very much the same feeling. 18th Working day of Pre-Production....I can frankly say my first time experience has been very much a negative experience.
