That looks great! Is the startup sequence PC Specialist branded too? Still in pre-production myself.

Very happy to be in pre-production now. With a bit of luck and lead times permitting, I will have my machine by the end of next week!

Helpful as always, mate, thank you. I was quite excited at seeing the email at 6:30, thinking it was my lucky day! So looking forward to the build process, I’ve been watching videos on how it’s done and it’s so interesting I almost regret not doing it myself. The peace of mind and after sales...

I paid with my debit card in full just before 11am on December 31st, the transaction is complete and all.

Hello, just popping in to this thread to ask a quick question to those of you also waiting on an order. I got an email this morning letting me know my desktop computer is still processing but will be worked on ASAP - I can now amend the order in my profile, so I assume that means it’s getting...

You know what? You're absolutely right. I've waited this long, what's another 24 days or so at this point? I'll hold off until the 28th of January then go all in with the 2080 Super. Thank you so much for helping me out, I really appreciate all the advice.

Yeah, I see what you're getting at. All things considered, I reckon I could hold off until the end of January and be able to add a 2080 Super into the spec instead of a 1660. I've got £1,213 saved so far, and adding a 2080 Super to my specification bumps that to £1,384 - for the extra £200 I can...

Ah sorry I didn't even mention that. Apologies if it's stupid to use a TV for PC gaming, but I'm using a Sony Bravia KD49XE8396 with a 60hz refresh rate. Should note I don't use any of the motionflow, HDR or extra additions, and have a custom setting for the Xbox to reduce input lag without any...

So, what do you suggest? Stick with a 1660 Super and upgrade when I have the means and when the full recommended specs are released? That does drop the price a fair bit. I don't mind that at all, as I'd like to have a solid computer relatively soon. The 1660 Super does seem to really hold its...

Thanks for the input, especially regarding refresh rates. Unfortunately for me to afford a 2080 or a 5700 XT, I'd need to hold off til the end of next month for my wages so I can put a bit more into my savings. I've been using PSVR since last October, and have noticed that it tends to floor my...

Wow, thank you very much for the good advice. I went back to my original spec, reconfigured the GPU to a GTX 1660 Super and dropped the price by well over £100, which gave me plenty of leeway with the CPU and case too. I'm actually still torn whether to wait for the full Index kit to become...

Thanks for the quick reply. I understand that an SSD is a great boost and lasts just as long as an HDD nowadays, but it does seem to be a bit expensive even for smaller drives. I toyed with the idea of a 240gb one for the OS and programs I'd use very often, but it bumped my price up a fair bit...

Hey. I'm a total noob when it comes to actual computers and usually prefer to play on console, but I wanted to get a Vive or Index along the road and was going with the minimum specifications for Half-Life: Alyx as a baseline. My budget for the computer is £1000, and this comes in at a VERY...
