    PCSPECIALIST DPD voted best delivery service in the UK

    I agree, DPD are great in my area, and I love the fact I can be big brother and watch online where they are. Which on Wednesday I was pleased with when they delivered my PC. I saw them online pull into the carpark (live in sort of a cul de sac, blocks of small flats) so went to window and saw...

    PCSPECIALIST Promotional Codes

    Interesting, I've got 3 different game codes for my PC too, and the AMD one (FarCry6) expires this Saturday... as I just received my PC, I don't have the time this week to set it up etc until the weekend. I really hope I can extend the deadline for it too as I might not manage to redeem the code...

    PCSPECIALIST HELP - monitor not displaying

    On the back of your machine you have 3 monitor connections: #1 = VGA #2 = DVI #3 = HDMI What connections do you have on the back of your Monitor? I would suggest (cable permitting) you try the other connections if possible. Be sure that in between doing each one you switch off the PC...

    PCSPECIALIST HELP - monitor not displaying

    My PC arrived on Wed, with no GPU and that didn't have any packing inside, so maybe they only put packing on the inside when there is a GPU in there to stop it moving... If you had packing in there, you couldn't take that photo - it would look like someone has shoved a pillow in the machine...

    PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080

    Good question. My PC (with no GPU) went into testing on build on monday, tested, QC'd and dispatched - all on the same day. DPS picked it up tuesday, and it arrived here Wednesday. Just waiting for the weekend now before I have time to even turn it on (friday after work).

    PCSPECIALIST She's here may I have some help please :)

    Hi Both, Exactly, I expect it's all working just fine when it leaves PCS, the only thing we can't count on is the "middle man" DPD/fedex etc. All we can do is hope, and then if any issues no matter how miner, and even if we can fix them -- report it to PCS.

    PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080

    That's a very good question, but unfortunately I can't answer it. It will probably depend on the rest of the system you have, e.g. PSU, MoBo and if they are in stock or not, if you're still waiting for a 3080 /70/90 card, then that is the reason.

    PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080

    Thanks, yea, I thought I might be waiting a little longer for the 5900x or the 1000w psu - if my 1080 is ok, at least I could get the pc set up ready for a 3080 in x months.

    PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080

    Just an update from me... After receiving the email about the 3080's I decided on friday to REMOVE it from my order and go with NO GPU and for now I'll put in my 1080 from my dead pc (I "think" the gpu is ok...hope so)... Anyway, this morning I got an email that it went into building, tested...

    PCSPECIALIST She's here may I have some help please :)

    Hmm... but shouldn't Testing and then QA check everything is working, even a fan that isn't seen as a priority, along with any temps on the cpu to make sure the AIO is working too.

    PCSPECIALIST My PC turned off and won’t turn back on please HELP!

    Sorry to hear this, it sounds like the same issue I had with my 8 year old PC last November, and thus buying a new one from PCS. The PSU, GPU etc all powers up just fine, but any fans on the MoBo don't work (and thus the AIO doesn't either since that is powered by MoBo), no post LED lights, no...

    PCSPECIALIST What?

    PCSPECIALIST Zen 3 Tracking thread (5900x/5950x)

    I ordered 5900x and a 3080, and just removed the 3080 from my build on friday. I'm currently on about 41 days. I'm going to put my 1080 card in for now and order the 3080 later.

    PCSPECIALIST Graphics card

    Which card are you looking at? If it's the nvidia 30's then check out the other threads for them. e.g. 3080 has about 60 working days wait at the moment.

    PCSPECIALIST Graphics Card

    All the above, but one suggestion would be for you to contact them and let them know what card you're putting in it, and ask them if they can place the power cables for the card in the correct position for you. Apparently they do a very good job of cable management, so would save you time...

    PCSPECIALIST Is this a solid build ?

    Also, only 1x500gb drive? looking at the specs I'm guessing gaming or something, think you will need a 2nd drive for storage and use the SSDm.2 for windows boot up. Can you also provide a link to the spec too, so others could edit it easier and recommend changes

    PCSPECIALIST Will a 1080 card be ok?

    Great. was hoping that was the answer, not had issues in the past with my win 8.1 pc when I swapped the card, but wasn't sure with win 10. Yep full clean driver installer will be done.
