    Talking A brainstorm ...

    I had a brilliant idea whilst at the GTX 580 launch event today (Well i though it was brilliant )

    Why not do a service where people can send you there PC's that they own
    With a list of parts they want upgrading and what they want it upgrading with or
    an amount of money they want to spend, and the best option you guys feel is best
    For a fee.

    OR

    it could be like the apple genius, they bring there PC's in to a SCAN Genius (or maybe another word as you all seem like genius' to me )

    A drop in service where you book a meeting (in person or online) where you can discuss this as I feel I can better communicate with a person face to face.

    If you guys fancy doing these ideas let me know, I'd be glad to help ;D
    And maybe a bonus as a commission
    I could do with a few nice new things for my PC

    Re: A brainstorm ...

    Sounds like a good idea tbh, possibly hard to implement and staff, but maybe have some open days or something where people just bring along their PC and you upgrade them for a fee.

    Or maybe even "overclocking classes" .

    yes, the upgrade part was my main idea, the others were just sub-ideas but I would too love an overclocking class, as learning in person, from a professional, with first hand experience is vital

    Re: A brainstorm ...

    Hi

    We already offer an upgrade to 3XS systems but this is not something we can do while you wait as the tests are run overnight to test the stability especially on Overclocked systems

    If you are interested in any upgrades to 3XS Systems please contact our sales team and discuss the options and costs with them

    With reference to the Overcloking classes, this may be something we could consider for the future

    Regards

    Ben
