You might end up with problems if you don't upgrade the power supply

Nvidia is recommending a 600W power supply for the RTX 3060 Ti, and it will draw up to 200 watts.

To give headroom for upgrades down the line I'd suggest upgrading it to 750

This is a stock PC Specialist spec with the 3070 Ti downgraded to the 3060 Ti.
So it's the power supply PCS themselves have spec'd for the 3070 Ti.

450W wont be enough if using for intensive use (which I'm guessing you will be) you'll be much better off using a 750W +

The Fedex website says this "High volume of shipments, COVID 19 closures and increase in border controls may cause delivery delays." I'd have hoped they'd be using DPD or another courier in the UK that delivers a bit better than Fedex at the moment
I'm in Ireland, and it seems PC Specialist are using Fedex for European deliveries, which isn't ideal; from my own experience DPD tend to be much better. Still, nothing for it but to wait I guess. I suppose I could call Fedex but I don't really want to do that, last time I did was an ordeal and a half.

Oh sorry I thought you meant Kingsbury in London. There are issues with shipments to Ireland. If you go onto the Fedex website they have a specific announcement page about the delays per country which might help give you an idea on delivery dates

Sound, thanks a load!

By Kingsbury I meant I checked the tracking number on the Fedex website and my PC seems to have been "in transit" in Kingsbury, GB for a few days now, probably should have been more clear.

Update: So went into build on my 18th working day with the Ryzen 7 5800x, 3060ti and 850W RMx
Oooo it’s exciting times!! To say we’re in a global pandemic and a shortage of graphics cards through the world 18 working days is actually amazing isn’t it 😁

I've gone into Awaiting Dispatch now :) They tested the build last night it looks like. I wonder how long DPD will take to actually deliver it.
