Easy ordering process and efficient delivery.

Website was easy to use, communication and feedback was great. I ordered the 5 day dispatch option and it was built, tested and delivered within the 5 days (even through bank holiday) with updates every step of the way. I've had the PC for 2 weeks and so far so good, no issues.

Great communication, delivered within the agreed time slot and to the required spec. Thank you.

Bought the Recoil series 16" gaming laptop. Great prices, advice with fast responses during business hours, selection, etc. Also delivered several days before anticipated. I also had the option to not get the Windows and just transfer my old SDD into the new machine (though I had to buy a new hard drive just to make the order valid... probably could be improved there). Overall happy with the build and the power of the laptop. Enjoying using it. Only three relatively minor things I didn't like. 1. The num pad of the keyboard is really not nice to use. Almost useless if you're used to a normal num pad, but I'll use mostly an external keyboard, so no matter. There is also no dedicated 'Home' key'. 2. I got the external liquid cooler, and it didn't come with a manual. Quite a complicated device and I had to look it up online. 3. I quoted my VAT number and VAT wasn't charged, but I got charged VAT (in Ireland) by the delivery company at customs all the same. I wasn't on some list or other. This may be specific to Ireland, and I can reclaim the VAT, but if PC Spcialist had known/advised, that would have been great. Presumably they know more about buying/selling/sending goods in Europe than I do, as I'm a services company.

Fantastic computer, dispatched within 3 days which is exactly what I asked for. Can’t complain

I bought this machine specifically to run flight simulators. Starting with a basic setup I added memory, Windows 11 professional PC Specialist were very quick in setting up and testing with the unit despatched within 5 days, coupled with DPD, meant I was up and running in less than a week, including a weekend. One day of loading software and on to a test. First session was an hour long flight testing the scenery with the software, P3D, running at full speed. No problems and the laptop was hardly warm. As this will be used for training, it was left for 3 hours on standby, as will probably happen in use. Second test. A different pilot flying for 1.5 hours putting the sim through a lot of stress. Again the laptop passed with flying colours. So much, that the second pilot is going to order one, when he is allowed to. The flight characteristics were very good, no juddering or drop outs that you get with smaller setups. Overall continuous run time was 7 hours, a reasonable test for any machine. Laptop spec is Ionico series 15.6" LED Screen i9 12900 processor 32gb Ram 6gb RTX3060 This is an excellent laptop and combined with a large external scrern and suitable controls will keep up with most flight sim setups. This is the 3rd laptop I have purchased from PC Specialist and so far the most powerful. The other 2 are still in use and working well.

Ordered my laptop from PCSpecialist after comparing similar specs through Dell, ASUS and others. Price was cheaper and the finance deal easier to apply for. I was kept informed at all stages of the process and it was shipped and delivered by DPD who are my preferred delivery service. After delivery, everything has worked as expected. Minor criticism - whilst gaming, the track pad, which I don't use, could do with being more central as it reacts when using the movement keys due to the proximity of your palm

The laptop (Fusion Studio 14") is very well built, keyboard is great to type on. The laptop has enough power to run all the required apps that I need. Ordering the laptop was simple, just select the laptop and tweak the spec as required. Once the order was placed, I was able to track the laptop through the whole process of building to deliver with the customer portal or the emails updating me when the laptop moved to a new stage. The customer portal provides great resources such as drivers/manuals or contacting support. Would always recommend and use PC Specialist to friends and family, have a history of buying computers/laptops from them. The web site is easy to navigate and in the event you do have to call staff are polite and professional.

so the laptop is all right runs smoothly for now and loads things at decent speed haven't had a problem with it yet

There aren't many companies this professional whereby you can essentially build your laptop from scratch. The interface and selection is so user friendly you can't go wrong. Allowing you to select different parts and then seeing if the parts are compatable or not. The build time was under the estimate also which was great. The laptop itself has completely delivered as have PC Specialists. I can't recommend them enough and in due course will also be having a desk top built.

Very impressed from start to finish and overjoyed with my new computer. I recommend PC specialist to everyone.

There wasn’t much i didn’t like about it the only thing which i wish was available was some of the other monitors choices that caught my eye but of course that isn’t your fault for the shortage. Otherwise i cant complain

Quick turn around and fast delivery. Great PC

It was so easy to build and order a laptop for my wife, which suited her requirements. The only problem is you are spoiled for choice, should I go for this or that? I was kept informed for every build stage, and fast delivery. This is the second computer I have bought from PC Specialist and won't be my last. I can recommend PC Specialist.

Had a bunch of questions that were answered and the whole process was straight forward and well documented.

The PC received is great quality and has better performance than expected. Although when I first received the PC, I ran into some issues with my graphics card fans as they did not come on automatically. This caused the gpu to overheat resulting in PC performance issues. At the time. I was unaware that the graphics card fans weren't activating as I thought they'd automatically activate whenever the gpu required cooling. Due to this, I came across many performance issues during my first week of using the PC. Eventually after days of troubleshooting and looking for a solution, I realised the gpu wasn't cooling correctly. To fix this issue, I downloaded software for the gpu that allowed me to manually activate the fans. Apart from that the PC is fantastic and delivery was quicker than expected!

Easy to use configuration, build delivered on time with no hassle, works as expected.

Ordered a new PC to work from home. Delivery was much quicker than expected, and I really enjoyed the "sneak peek" sent out when the PC was built and going into testing. Was just a case of plug-and-play when delivered which was perfect for someone who didn't have time to build their own, and everything works perfectly. Overally very happy.

Being a techy, I always used to build my own PCs; scouring the Internet for the latest info on CPUs, RAM etc., comparing prices between different suppliers, then spending a good day or so building the machines. But not now I have discovered PC Specialist! They take all of the hard work out of the process, presenting tried and tested configurations with plenty of options, and all at an extremely competitive price. The build work is carried out superbly, with wires nicely routed and everything packaged up nicely. I will now be using PC Specialist to build all of my PCs for home or work from now on, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them!
