New Gaming Rig

[CaptainFreezy]

Hello all,
After having my PC for a couple of days, I’ve decided that I shall post an early review about my first thoughts of my PCSpecialist Desktop. Now I will as I get more games downloaded probably expand, but for now here it is.

In my spec I chose to go with a Red/Black colour scheme.

The Service

PCSpecialist built my computer in 7 working days, which I was really impressed at because 2 of those days where them waiting for the case to arrive. Build quality is excellent and a shout out to Chris France who built my PC. I’m really impressed with the cable management. My PC was tested and QA by Zbear Ramzan and so far I've not run into any issues, so again I’m very pleased. Overall I was extremely happy with PCSpecialist’s service while my PC was being built because they kept me well informed of how it was getting along.
My PC was delivered by DPD and they clearly handled it with good care as there was not a single mark on the packaging. Again another shout out, this time to Anthony Cunliffe who packed my PC. The packaging was very neat and solid.

My First Impressions
The PC has been absolutely no hassle what so ever from the minute I've received it. It is really quick and I'm really pleased with it. Can’t wait to get the rest of my games on it and update you all on its progress which I'm sure by early indications will be very good.

To Summarise
My experience with PCSpecialist as a first time customer is excellent and I would definitely recommend them to anybody. So little hassle and great results. Very Pleased!

BTW. If anyone wants to know anything else or would like more pictures, just let me know. I will be changing my monitor at some point and the mat my PC is resting on isn't permanent.

Thanks everyone,
Ally

Hello everyone,

Just thought that I would provide a short update on the changes I've made and how I feel the PC is running after having it for nearly 2 months. I've added some Akasa Vegas red LEDs and a BENQ EW2440L to my setup. I've also switched from FSX to P3D. My system is handling the likes of P3D and Arma 3 incredibly well and the quality of the build from the guys at PCS definitely shows, as it's working really well and fast. So I just wanted to thank them again.

Thanks all,

Ally

I don't like your glass table. Very unsuitable and dangerous for gamig.

 

[CaptainFreezy]

Yeah, it's not permanent, we are going to completely redo our office furniture, just needed something that wouldn't look too out of place for the time being. May I ask how it is dangerous?

I guess if you were to pick it up and throw it at someone mid-game, that could be quite dangerous???

Very odd thing for Daviid to say.

Yeah, that's why I'm a little curious as to why he said that. As I said, it's not permanent so shouldn't be too much of a worry. It's tempered glass so it's not like it's going to break. However, Daviid if you see this, could you please elaborate on what you mean. Thanks

You people have no sense of humor...

I think it's the fact that you can't really tell if it was meant to be serious or not and therefore the OP wanted clarification.
