Lucky. Spec please? Although I say lucky I might be in the same position, finish college in about an hour and it could be sat there waiting for me! Shame I still need a monitor, mouse mat, mouse, keyboard and a screw driver!

She might have already unboxed it and be kicking butt on COD Black Opps :p

Congrats though dude, you'll have more of a reason to look forward to the end of a working day now :)

Its a beast, wow runs so smoothly on it, and its so quiet. now installing l4d2 and later will install crysis.
I ordered it on the 22nd in the early hours of the morning, stayed in pre production until the 29th when it got built and taken to testing, and it stayed on that status until last Friday when it got shipped (I'm guessing due to the high volume of orders PCS is putting out, for some reason I wasn't updated to QC but straight to delivery, even though I'm sure it must have been through QC, since its got the name of the person who did it and everything!
so all in all it didn't take more than about 12 or 13 working days or something close to it.

and yes, the case is amazing, mainly in the dark. the effect the LED creates on the intake and exhaust fans is simply amazing!

Just wanted to say, what a wonderful machine!!
On my old pc i had liek a frame a minute standing in the midle of orgrimmar in WoW, now i have no problem at all anywhere in the game, and even in the midle of orgrimmar, thanks to the lovely SSD, everything loads super fast. its a wonderful feeling not having to wait more than a handfull of seconds before the game fully loading adn seeing hundreds of people flying around me!!

I've also thrown Crysis at it with all the settings maxed out, and its like it didnt even care!!
Once again guys at PCS, thank you so very much for everything!! from the advice in the forums from staff and other enthusiasts, to the awesome built quality, excelent price and just excelent customer service!!

I do have one question though. I will be buying 3 monitors in the months to come (1 at the ed of this month, and hopefully the other 2 by sometime in march) I was wondering if its possible to order the monitors through you, or if that is only an option when you are actualy buying a computer at the same time. your 24" monitors seem to be the sort of quality im looking for, and I rather spend my money with you than in some other random place! :p

Once again, thank you!!!
