I usually build my computers myself, but weighed up the prices of the components individually plus the hassle of actually fitting it all on the Mobo and cable management and it just seemed sensible to let PCSpecialist do it for me. There have been a few niggles though: -- Whilst building in options I added a wireless card and the builder page said it was not required. Turns out it was required as the Mobo didn't have wireless. -- Performance when multi-tasking was awful. I regularly play games and watch Netflix, but performance of both were so bad I almost just returned it straight away. After digging through some settings it turns out that Norton was trying to prioritise my game.. but actually made both terrible. I will be force removing Norton asap. -- I tend to leave my computer on most of the time and let it sleep whilst i'm away, and it seems to have issues with waking up. It doesn't wake up properly and i have to restart via the case. -- I also seem to bought it at the wrong time as it should have come just before Easter (according to the planned dates), but because it overran Easter holidays dragged it out a little longer. Also during that time NVidea dropped their prices of GFX cards drastically so AMD did the same, so ordering a few weeks later it should have been a few hundred pounds cheaper for same thing. On the plus notes, it is smaller than my other PC but i'm loving running in 4k with all the settings on ultra (when Norton is put back in its place). Cables are nice and tidy. The box was heavily damaged on delivery, but the packing was really good and the damage was limited to the outer box.
