I couldn't help but name my PC. After seeing various other names of computer's rise to fame, I thought It necessary to give mine a completely fictional name - hence 'The Sarion' (Pronounced 'SA-REE-UN') .
- Ordered the PC last Wednesday and it's currently in Processing - UPDATE: Pre-Production (Tuesday 28th) - UPDATE: In Building (Tuesday 5th) - EVGA GTX 570 SC arrived from Amazon (Wednesday 6th) - In Testing & Quality Control (Thursday 7th) - Awaiting Dispatch & Dispatched (Saturday 9th)
For those of you that have ordered from PCS before you'll probably know the worst part is the wait. The long, agonising wait. The research you do before actually buying the PC is fun, or at least I think it is, and of course the purchasing of the beaut' is always an enjoyment. So now I'm enduring the long wait.
When the Sarion officially arrives, I'l try my best to upload some pictures. I'l be sure to do a thread on my experience with PCS and a full review of the Sarion. This thread is here primarily to let PCS Forum members know that I'll be doing a review, uploading pictures and telling of my PCS experience.
Seeing as this is the 'Show of your new PC!' section, I'l post my specs' (be warned - it's not A-****ing-mazing - it's just decent)
