Ah, silly me. Thank you!

Received my new PC yesterday, but I'm not getting any visual output, either on a monitor or TV. I've tried HDMI, DP and USB-C. Now this might be a really stupid question, but I bought a GPU separately and was planning to install it after I'd checked the PC worked. Should it be outputting an...

People still might want to order even knowing the situation. They do make it very clear.

Again, all praise to the PCS guys who must have worked through the night. Went from build to dispatched in less than 24 hours. Also received all of the game codes to go with my components at the same time.

I'd bin the gpu and get it separately, then you'll be top of the queue for a 5900x. Mine was built on 52 days without gpu.

7.03 this morning and it's awaiting dispatch. Got to say I'm impressed.

For what it's worth, mine has a 1000w

For anyone thinking of sourcing their own gpu, I removed the 3080 from mine on 26th December and it was built today. It's a 5900x cpu, which are also hard to come by, so it likely would have been sooner without that.

3 hours of building and it's now into testing. Can't argue that they're not moving quickly now the parts are in.

Well, after all that, mine just went into build!

Well if I don't hear anything this week I'll call them next Monday. Given I've had to downgrade the gpu I really don't want to downgrade the cpu as well. I'd back myself to install a new gpu, but cpu is something else. I'd probably take the 5950 though if it meant getting it sooner. Last time I...

So the whole thing is a mystery basically

Maybe what he meant was all those ones had been allocated already and they don't know when they'll get more?
