Posted on these forums for some advice as "Titan Goliath" system built by Overclockers needed replacing. Within a day or so had some great advice from a couple of forum contributors and proceeded to place an order based on their opinions.
Ordered 28/10 a custom build of parts put in my basket. This gave me a far greater choice than the online pc configurator. Sent pre sale query and Damo replied immediately quoting £60 to put it together. Bargain!
31/10 PC is delivered to my home and within 15 minutes I'd removed it from it's first class packaging, removed the internal packaging and plugged it in. Windows 8.1 wasn't really for me but again followed advice and specced it. First impressions are that it's a good OS, will just take a little getting used to.
Within 30 minutes I've got BF4 installed, loads in rapid time thanks to the Crucial MX100 SSD, upped the settings to Ultra and just have to say wow. The game now looks as it should.
Overall the whole experience has been incredibly positive. I've got exactly what I wanted (smaller system, quiet and powerful), spent less than I had budgeted for and still got a 4790K/GTX970, and got it turned round in 3 days despite not paying any extra for the fast build. The build itself arrived with all drivers and OS installed, cabling is incredibly neat and it's looks fantastic.
Many thanks to all at Overclockers and of course you guys who spend the time to help guys like me make the right choices.
