Custom PC review. My PC took 11 days (8 working days) to arrive after ordering, it was delivered exactly within the window provided by the courier. I am extremely happy with the PC, it all works as intended with no major issues. # Positives: - It ended up being £30 cheaper than if I had built the same system myself. I didn't get the same case or cooler (Same price range as PCSpecialist's options.) I would've happily paid extra just to save myself the stress and back ache of building it myself. I have zero regrets buying a pre-built from PCS. - The most silent PC I have ever heard. I have to check the lights to make sure I actually turned the PC on, because I can barely hear the fans rev up. - PC stays cool during long gaming sessions, the temperatures are great. - Pretty quick build time, and you're kept up to date via e-mails and the order page. You even get a 360 view of your PC after it has been built, and can request changes. - My PC was actually dispatched on a Saturday, and arrived on a Sunday despite everything saying deliveries were only Mon-Fri. I'm probably an edge case but it was greatly appreciated. # Negatives: - Lack of variety in part options, you're limited to mostly Corsair or PCSpecialist branded parts. Especially the CPU coolers. - The SSD NV.ME drive somehow boots slower than my old SATA SSD. From 20s~ (SATA SSD) to 37s (New SSD) No issues with my PC other than that. Really not that big of a deal. - You recieve a box alongside your PC including spare cables, brackets and screws but none of them are labelled. - An "additional notes" section would be nice on the PC configuration page, so you can specify other PC build needs that aren't covered by the drop down menus. I wanted to install two HDDs but had to install the power cables myself (oh woe is me.) - The chart on the order status page is slightly outdated, and even a tiny bit confusing.
