My PC has been dispatched!

[James Herbert]

First time ordering a custom PC. Also ordered a monitor. Super, super excited, guys. Curious how many of these haribo I may get.. xD

You don't get PCs here. Only an expensive box of harribo.

Sorry.

 

[Hagar]

If you order a USB flash drive you get two or three packs. A complete PC, sorry mate you'll be lucky to get any. The build techs eat them all.

I'd be more worried about the pc arriving fully working than haribo.

Stress on installed components is extremely high. My mate had to have 3 parts replaced when his arrived.

Motherboard, PSU and gpu iirc.

I hear watercooled PCs from here used melted down Haribo as the cooling fluid

Oh, you are fun.

 

[sgavan]

Full Pc you should get them as padding inside the PC

 

[Chrisc]

You cant post this and then not advise specs?

 

[Psycho Sonny]

Oh, you are fun.

It's true though. Its far safer to get individual components and build yourself.

My mate was without a pc that he had paid £2500 for like a month as they tried to diagnose and fix his after it arrived DOA.

Luckily he had a 3 year warranty with 1 year on site but in the end they had to give him a hundred or so back as compensation for all the issues and hassle and 3 seperate engineer visits.

I hope his arrives fine but haribo would honestly be the last thing on my mind. GPU's can be very heavy as well as some coolers. One bad pothole is all it takes.

My mate would never buy a pre built again after his experience. Maybe he got unlucky who knows but it is a bigger concern than some haribo.

Bet you're fun at a party, I imagine none are good enough for you to attend though.

That’s not very nice that’s a personal attack.

 

[Scania]

This will be the delivery guy bringing it....

I'm sure @Psycho Sonny can take it.

Bit of a weak attack to be fair

Hope the new rig is everything you dreamt of and more OP!

With a name like that you ought to be careful

 

[Uther]

My son had a OcUK pc delivered a few weeks ago, brilliantly packaged and works perfectly
No haribo though.

 

[randomshenans]

Wait, this place does computer parts?

@OP: Don't listen to the fearmongering, I'm sure your PC will be just fine.

Oof that makes me upset. This is turning into mumsnet and rss monsters.
