Full specs below if anyone has any advice 
Nope! builds are done by order date and time so it's effectively a first come first serve basis, so you wouldn't lose your place. Have you had your system looked over by the forum?I ordered a PC including an rtx 3060 ti and was just wondering if i amended the PC with, for example, a different SSD, would that put me to the back of the queue for the rtx 3060 ti? Im pretty sure this wouldnt be the case but just wanted to make sure as you guys know how bad the waiting times are for these cards are already!

Sorry forgot to reply to your post directly my response is above ^
No worries! Thanks for the spec! A few questions, what's your budget? What monitor will you be using with it (either make and model or resolution AND refresh rate) and what are you using it for? If gaming, what sort of games will you be playing?
My budget is around £1,300. Currently the PC is £1,130. I'll primarily be using this system for gaming on a 1080p 60Hz monitor with some 3D modelling on the side using blender. In terms of games I plan on playing pretty much everything, Cyberpunk is my main focus right now though!
Frustratingly the case doesn't show up on my configurator (there seems to always be an issue with it) but this is the spec I'd go for. First off, the 3060TI is over specced and it will be bottlenecked by your monitor as this card is designed to support 144hz 1440p in most games. Luckily NVIDIA is releasing the 3060 which would be a better fit and hopefully save you some money on the 25th. I'd recommend being quick with this card as I'm sure it'll go very quickly. It might be worth doing no changes until you have this card so then we know what budget we have to work with. But for now, I'll continue.
Thank you for your suggestions! I will be 100% honest I dont think I’m going to change my graphics card as I am quite scared that I won’t be able to change it in time 😅 I am very busy and can’t be 100% sure I’ll be online at the right time when it releases! Also I chose the 3060 ti because I want to keep this graphics card for many years to come and I think even though it may be over specced now it will last longer than a normal 3060.

That's totally fair about the graphics card and you're right, having a 60TI means you're less likely to need a GPU upgrade if you decide to get a better monitor!Thank you for your suggestions! I will be 100% honest I dont think I’m going to change my graphics card as I am quite scared that I won’t be able to change it in time 😅 I am very busy and can’t be 100% sure I’ll be online at the right time when it releases! Also I chose the 3060 ti because I want to keep this graphics card for many years to come and I think even though it may be over specced now it will last longer than a normal 3060.
Also, I forgot to mention this earlier but the reason I’m going for only 500GB m.2 is because I’m going to use the M.2 as a boot drive, I already have a 1TB SSD with windows 10 installed which I plan on putting into this PC
I will take your advice on the motherboard for Bluetooth and PSU improvement though! Thank you for taking the time to configure my build and I really appreciate your input
You’ve been more than helpful man thank you very much! 🙏🏽 and yes dont worry everything you said was easy to understand 😁
I'm glad to hear! Honestly about the PCS M.2, I don't know. The Samsung may last longer but I wouldn't be able to tell you with 100% certainty. I know there are many users who are very happy with them, @Martinr36 being one of them, he might be able to tell you more?You’ve been more than helpful man thank you very much! 🙏🏽 and yes dont worry everything you said was easy to understand 😁
I was considering getting the PCS M.2 but I feel like the lifespan of the Samsung one would be better?
I will likely upgrade the CPU with an AIO cooler though as you recommended! Which AIO would you recommend getting? Going to wait until I get paid first but I’ll keep you updated either here or via message
I've got a total of 3 of the 1TB PCS M.2, 2 in my desktop and 1 in the laptop, had no problem with them, when i spec a PC depending on budget I'll normally spec one of the samsung for the primary drive, then the PCS one for Games, buit6 if budget doesn't allow for a samsung at primary I'll spec the 500GB PCS M.l2 instead
The PCS drives are astoundingly good for the budget.
I recommended some changes for that build here? ⬇️ Unless you're wanting other opinions then that's all good!I recently ordered a PC and was just wondering what you guys think? My budget is around £1,300. Plan on using it for gaming with some 3D modelling on the side. The monitor I'll be using is 1080p 75Hz.

I am thinking of changing the CPU to a Ryzen 5 5600x with a be quiet pure rock 2 to install myself and changing the M.2 to a 500 GB samsung evo. Please note I already have a 1TB ssd for all my games and such, the M.2 would be a boot drive.
Feel free to post any suggestions you may have
Yeah I made a new post to get some more opinions on my build and for some reason a mod moved my post into this one! 🤷🏽♂️
You already made a similar post so its just seen as spam - best if you just updated your post here and let one of us get back to you
