I have already posted in the New Member area on my experiance with Custom PC builds... safe to say STAY AWAY FROM ALIENWARE!!!!
After ordering my PC from PCSpecialist it arrived withing 15 days (no fast track)
The delivery box was huge and for a good reason, it was well protected (don't do unboxing videos)
So I fired up my new machine... one thing was slightly worrying was that Windows 10 was "Repairing" the HD... however it went straight in.
Inside the case everything is neat and tidy, I love the case very clear left panel showing the "guts" and just about everything is easily removable (for dust) front, top and bottom.
Would I recommend buying from PC Specialist again, yes, defo.. 15 days for a custom built machine is fantastic.. I do know others have had to wait longer but please do.. best things come from those who wait..
