haha you'll be sorely disappointed...it's only a clock lol I did however once collect consoles and had about 10 gameboys lol I then realised I had a problem and sold all of my 'stock'...the collection I had was a bit insane. Well noticed though!

It's a 4K TV...42" :) I find it easier to edit videos using one large screen, rather than 2 x smaller screens. Personal preference :)

After switching to the 3070, it took only a couple of days for it to go to building, testing and delivered :) I know I need more lights in the case - that’ll be ordered on pay day :) good luck to those still waiting for the 3080 - I hope you all get it soon :)

So changed my order 2 days ago to the 3070, it has already been dispatched and I will be receiving it tomorrow! Fun times!

Another fun update...so downgraded to the 3070 from the 3080 last night at midnight (32 working days), at 10am it went into building, at 1pm it went into testing. The process seems really quick once the stock is available.

Yeh to say I’m not regretful is an understatement, but as I mentioned, I don’t NEED the performance of a 3080 just yet...I was just being a gear whore lol

All - changed my order at around midnight last night and it has gone into building already :)

Currently at 32 working days and have just now downgraded from the 3080 to the 3070 (in hindsight, I didn't need the 3080...it was a want rather than need!). Wonder how long until I too go into build...hopefully not another 32 days lol

Hi All, just to let you know - I've abandoned the 3080 queue too, so that's one more set aside for one of you lucky-lot. I downgraded to the 3070, which is more suitable as I don't even have a 4k monitor yet anyway, so will only be playing at 2k. The 3080 was for 'future proofing', but there's...

Thanks for that - I didn't even realise Bullguard was on there, probably because it was a free trial. The trouble is the cost of the additional parts...definitely can't afford to update the order now :( What's up with the SSD out of interest? Reviews of the one I chose seem good? I think the...

Hi All, I'm probably just reiterating what others have said but at least it's a bit of an update. I just got off an online chat with PCS (I got in to the chat immediately which was great) and he confirmed that I am about half way in the queue for my system (ordered 14th December 2020 - 30...

But surely they must therefore have a selection of PCs in WIP status waiting for just the GPU, another selection waiting for cpu and GPU etc...these could be categorised and a queue generated from that based on order dates? The main thing for me is the lack of communication as a whole. We...

The GPU shortage is 'acceptable' to a degree as obviously this is a worldwide problem, and as frustrating as it is, we can't do much about it and so must wait. The problem I have is with PCS and their lack of communication to customers. I don't understand why we as paying customers must resort...

I've just seen that Nvidia have signed a contract with Samsung Foundry for them to continue to manufacture for them, and for Samsung to increase capacity to meet the RTX30 series demand! This could potentially be great news for all of us that have ordered one! Watch this space!

I'm the same ref. not knowing about stock issues :( I haven't been a PC gamer for about 5 years and have played solely on console. I missed PC gaming so thought I'd go and treat myself to an early birthday present (end of January)...and if I'm going PC, I want it to be able to play everything...
