    PCSPECIALIST A few unexpected things related to order management.

    Apologies for any confusion I've caused @SerefArikan your feedback is most welcome here and you're absolutely right without any feedback nothing has a chance to be discussed or changed :)

    PCSPECIALIST A few unexpected things related to order management.

    Not that you've posted asking for responses but worth noting that few of us here will really be able to provide any feedback on this as we don't work for PCS, if anyone replies just bare that in mind it may be a reasoned opinion rather than objective fact. If an Admin or PCS Staff member...

    PCSPECIALIST Final advice and/or critiques on build before I go for it!

    PCSPECIALIST The Windows Package Manager

    I feel like I'm liable to break something if I mess around with this.... Certainly not something I can do at work (I'm no admin and usually only a reliable bane of our IT department as I'm semi-IT literate). I guess it isn't likely to knack anything as its only updating packages which are...

    PCSPECIALIST Work laptop for adobe (full package) and da vinci

    Hi, Its much easier for us to review specs if they are copy/pasted from the configurator rather than added as images. If you would like some advice please copy/paste from your order page (instructions here if you're unsure how to do this...

    PCSPECIALIST Returns label

    Hi @Michelle_D I've just seen this message so likely too late, all you would have needed to ensure was on the package was your RMA number. The Courier would have a 'shipping label' to apply. If you've not put your RMA number onto the box I'd recommend tracking the shipment and once its shown...

    PCSPECIALIST I have two questions. With some advice, please!

    Sli is defunct for consumers its no longer even available on almost all cards, I think I've vague memory of it being available on some 'Titan' cards but nothing else. Definitely not required for gaming, infact its not supported by almost all (if not entirely all) newer games. As for delivery...

    PCSPECIALIST Keeping it clean

    Totally agree with everything @Steveyg has said, an air duster (electric specifically rather than the canned air type) is an invaluable tool to assist with maintaining your rig :)

    PCSPECIALIST Assistance needed

    RMAs can vary wildly, you won't get repeated updates on progress I wouldn't expect just periodic updates on the status. Given the nature of your issue PCS will be trying lots of things to replicate your issues and then trying to fully diagnose the underlying problem(s) before trying to fix. That...

    PCSPECIALIST Amended order - timescales?

    Morning! I don't think that the stage changes if you swap out a component during build (could be wrong I've never done it myself), I'd imagine the only way that would happen is if you changed your entire build. However if you change a component there will be some delay depending on precisely...

    PCSPECIALIST Change of Username

    Unless Scott's got special powers I don't think the Mods can? Wouldn't be the first time I've been out the loop though :D
