I’m sure you’ll both be assigned stock sooner than later, if not by the 28th at least! I actually made a mistake in ordering my keyboard and monitor too late. Waited for the Black Friday sales (as I assumed this PC wouldn’t be coming until at least early December) and now my PC will arrive...

Do you have something in your build that’s currently on backorder? I know the 2TB HDD’s, 850w RMX, 5000 series CPU’s, and a few other bits are out of stock.

My pc has been waiting for dispatch since yesterday afternoon. Kind of concerned, because I have a tracking number and everything, but DPD says they are still waiting for the package. So idk what’s going on.

Mine's awaiting dispatch now! I can't believe there's a chance I'll have this thing in my arms by the weekend :love:

I've entered the building phase now!

Ah, great thanks! I got the same update on Saturday. Crossing my fingers there's enough to reach me today.

What was your estimated build date before this glorious day?

Not sure if AP, but Fanatical has a decent Black Friday sale going on. AC: Odyssey Ultimate Edition is 80% off, and Doom Eternal Deluxe is 72% off. A few other goodies in there for great prices.

My build got pushed forward from the 25th to the 23rd according to the automated email. I know everyone is saying to ignore these emails, but it's impossible when they are flaunting them in your face :LOL: Crossing my fingers anyway.

I'm no expert here, and would love to have someone experienced correct me. However, I feel you might see a benefit from upgrading to the 3900x, considering the multi-core strength and the savings of £1 :cool:. But please ignore this if it wouldn't strengthen the PC.

I'm considering upgrading to the 5900x since I'm still in pre-production. However, I don't want to be waiting another month for it if it's currently out of stock like the 3070. Does anyone know the lead times on the 5900x at the moment?

@Nursemorph You mentioned upgrading to a 5900x. Since my build contains a 3070, it's most-likely going to be delayed a bit; however, this also gives me a chance to upgrade to a 5900x on the 5th. What kind of performance gains could I see if I did this? And would it be worth it from a gaming &...

Same here. Hopefully things can be processed sooner, but I understand if they can't. This just means I can most likely upgrade to a 5900x on the 5th without paying a penalty!

I actually need some monitor suggestions if anyone is interested in giving a hand? I had one in mind in my first post, but now I'm doubting it. I understand I need a 1440p 144hz monitor, but do I go for ultrawide or no? Plus, given the FPS on my build, is it okay if I have slightly less FPS...
