    Probably Friday, They normally put everything to build a pc on for the weekend.

    However you can email and request items

    themanwhocan@scan.co.uk is the email address I think.

    Good riddance. Wish I'd done it about a year ago.

    I will make sure that I keep checking the site when I have read up on a few more componets made a couple more decisions.

    However you can email and request items

    themanwhocan@scan.co.uk is the email address I think.
    Thanks for the info StaffsMike. It is really good to see a company that is willing to listen to what the customers want. It certainly encourages me to buy from the site.

    and next month I'm gonna get a 500gb weston digi/samsung 16mb cache hdd... and pos if i can afford it a 22" widescreen...
    going to be running that with the Tagan DualEngine 500w psu/some nice 120mm fan (can't remember the name but its good), and 2 320gb 8mb cache 7200rpm sata weston digitals...

    will i notice a great deal of difference when i get the 500gb 16mb cache hdd over the above spec hdd's...?

    what'd you guys think of the spec then? turns out i managed to get the 3870 not he 3850 and its a "PCS" version which i think is a XT spec card but PowerColor's own naming over the "XT" brandname... either way 2400mhz/800mhz is niceeeee cheaper than any lower spec'd nvidia and will do my HD stuff better...
