My laptop has arrived today, two days after being dispatched and one day earlier than pcspecialist would suggest online. Pretty cool! Below, there should be links to pictures of both the front and back, neat cable mgmt. All works as expected and I'm a happy camper. Wouldn't let me upload the...
I meant the usecase for the pc, as in what you were going to do with it - gaming, general purpose etc.
I think @SpyderTracks did all the heavy lifting here - I would've gone into the same direction as he did, AMD build would be recommended over intel and holding off until the new gpus launch.
I got the 3700X, B550, 2070 Super and 32GB of 3200mhz Ram - I'm mostly into shooters and WoW - should perform nicely, and most likely overkill, as I'm currently still on 1080p, but I'd rather have a bit of headroom left for upgrades in the future. Also into photography, and looking to do some...
:D I can understand. Did you stack it out with RGB?
Funnily enough I just got a text from DPD stating that mine is scheduled for delivery. So let's hope it arrives tomorrow, then I can set it up for everything after work in the evening and start my gaming journey. Friday, I've a day off so I...
Hi Andy,
I guess to give a more accurate recommendation 2 questions that you'd need to answer is what's your use case for the computer and what monitor are you using with it? 2080 Tis are about to be replaced, but should still serve you well into the future.
Anybody here have experience with orders being delivered to the Republic of Ireland with DPD? It says since yesterday evening "it's going into the depot", with the timestamp at 6 pm, but updated only around 8 Pm and expected delivery tomorrow?
Luckily for me we have a concierge where all parcels are routed to in my apartment complex / building site. It's quite neat. I will however download the app and get live updates. I'm a stickler for live updates and tracking. Hope it works the same in Ireland.
Now, in relation to my last post - this was faster than expected.

So, the estimate they gave me has been accurate since day 1 it seems. I received an estimate build on the 24th pretty much the first working day after my order. Now it's down to hoping that it'll go through testing without issues and will be dispatched tomorrow. Fingers crossed.

Just updated my order to include 32 GB of Ram instead of the 16 and ditched the PC desk mat, at this seems to be out of stock. Estimated Build date is the 24th, so next monday. Was hoping for it to be done before then, but seems unlikely at this point, as still in pre production, but luckily am...
I once had a pentium, one of the dual core chips that was all the rage around 2014. It was actually pretty decent to BF3 and AC3 etc. Was the first gaming pc I bought with my own self earned money, around 600 Eur back in the day. Now I'm treating myself to something a bit nicer. Don't care about...
Thanks for understanding :) Yeah, let's just hope it comes in time. I'm out of the country on the Saturday of next week for a bit more than a week and would hate for my pc to just lay around at our concierge room - let's hope it arrives by Friday next week at the latest :D (and knock on wood for...
