Unfortunately for me it's been a long wait to start using my PC! I ordered my custom
PC before going off on a two-week trip and then was moving off to university 10 days after (so I decided it best I wait until I was there to st up!) Well now I'm here! My Ethernet connection is still yet to be authorised, and I'm going a little crazy not being able to use it! - because of all this I'm not able to give an in-depth explanation of it's speed and ability to run multiple apps as of yet but from what I can do right now it seems to run really quickly and smoothly.
The packaging the computer came in was rather excessive but as I was moving I loved that I had quite so much polystyrene to keep it safe in for the car journey, not sure I'd have loved how wasteful the packaging was normally but I understand it leaves the least chance of damage which is always lovely!
I spent about £1400 on my build and its peripherals - it's an i7 gaming PC (K350 Cooler Master) and both the computer its self and all the Cerberus peripherals I bought with it have come out of the box working perfectly and looking of a high quality.
My only criticism as of yet, isn't one that particularly impacted me but could definitely really bother me under different circumstances, and that is that the time I was it would be delivered by was about half the time it ended up taking to arrive. ( I believe I was estimated 6-7 day delivery and it was received 13-14 days on) - as I was on holiday when it was delivered it wasn't a problem but certainly something to bear in mind when you order!
