Arriving today! 5 stars for PCS!

My pc left a fairly nearby depo at 7 this morning so I'm guessing it'll arrive today! Never been so excited to be at work!

Now I just need to get an adapter to use the pc with one of the rubbish monitors I have lying about..doh..

What I can say right now is PCS are one hell of a company, keep you updated and about 2 and a half weeks is great in my eyes for such a high end service, so 10/10 (which I will confirm once I've checked the PC isn't a hollow coolermaster case ;) )

Also Yodel (courier) seem to have performed fine, despite all the negative reviews online. Strange one that :S

I'll update this thread with pics or a video (if I can sneakily take one at work) tomorrow when I get the chance.

Thanks guys! It just says 'in transit possible delay'...

If I ring Yodel would they change the delivery to my work address or does it have to be my home address?

As far as I know, if it isn't marked as 'Out For Delivery' in the morning, it won't get to you that day - cos it's still on it's way to your local depot.

Notes: I could be just wrong, or it's possible it works differently in NI than mainland UK (I doubt it, but it could)

Expecting mine today but tracking says possible delay. Feel extremely let down if it doesn't arrive as I've also got time off work.

As I said to harzo earlier, if it doesn't say 'Out For Delivery' on the tracking site, it won't arrive today.

Hey everyone

Just checked my invoice and I guess I didn't order a mouse :S baffled as I was sure I chose wireless keyboard and mouse, and I checked everyone, oh well

Only thing is I got an overclocked system but I checked and it's only overclocked by 0.2ghz? is this normal? did I just get unlucky? i7 2600k
I thought they were good for overclocking
