    I recently ordered a new PC from Hardwareversand
    HDD: Seagate Barracuda 7200 2000GB, SATA 6Gb/s
    Drive: Samsung SH-224DB schwarz
    Case: NZXT Phantom 630 Midi-Tower - weiß, ohne Netzteil
    Processor: Intel Core i5-4690K Box, LGA1150
    Power Supply: EVGA 1000W,Platinum,10Yrs Wnt
    SSD: Crucial MX100 SSD 256GB (2,5", 7mm)
    Motherboard: ASUS MAXIMUS VII HERO, Sockel 1150, ATX
    RAM: 16GB-Kit G.Skill Sniper
    Graphics cards: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 970 G1 Gaming, 4GB GDDR5 (Quantity: 2)
    Case fans: Corsair The Air Series SP 140 LED High Static Pressure Fan Cooling, Purple, Dual Pack (Quantity: 4)
    CPU Cooler: NOCTUA NH-L12 - I got this because there should be a MATX computer being built soon and I thought to get this now and the CPU Cooler for the computer will most likely be Noctua NH-U14S.

    I had the PC prebuilt by hardwareversand(I'm aware they're nothing special but it was 10 euro so was worth it for the effort) and the package is being delivered by UPS, I previously ordered a case from them and the case arrived with multiple cracks and breaks(granted it was plastic) and now having a slight fear about their service.

    I'm wondering has anyone else had an issues with UPS as this is quite terrifying when something costs €1800 and you see:

    They're all clowns, its just the luck of the draw.



    Theres a very good documentary I cant find now of I think nightline playing football with packages in their sorting depot, you can hear the items break as they land.

    Bitta googling and I found it. UK Mail were the culprits this time, not night line, my mistake.
