    Yeah had one built by them, was all good. And so have a few others. Usually people don't post about how they made their pc too busy playing games.

    Ordered a pre-built before, was perfect. The fan cooler wasn't installed because it was too heavy and may have broken off/became loose during transit but everything else was fine. For the sake of €20 (or whatever it is) and not worrying about messing something up myself it's well worth it though alot on the forum are only happy to help if you decide to do it yourself

    Still costs €20 and well worth it. Got mine done 3 years ago and the cabling was very tidy. As mentioned the processor fan needs to be fitted by yourself. Have another one ordered last week and hope to get it this week, happy days :)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,044 ✭✭✭Wossack


    yea, came mounted (probably the problem, was a big card irrc). Also cause it was prebuilt, they dont ship all the empty boxes, so thought it would be trouble returning it - HWVS were grand though I believe- once he found the right number to ring
