    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Octane VI review after 5 months of use.

    First off: A rant is "to write or shout in a loud, uncontrolled, or angry way, often saying confused or silly things". There is not one angry word in my posts neither was i uncontrolled, "shouted" at anybody or was verbally abusive in any way. I don't really know why you take it personally...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Octane VI review after 5 months of use.

    I am not “banging on” about BIOS updates. I just want to know IF there are any updates and why PCS does not offer them. I want to know what is in this system, i am a paying customer who wants to know if things are up to date, out of date or, optimizable because there ARE updates out there which...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Octane VI review after 5 months of use.

    I’ve always been playing games since i was like, i think, 7 years old on every system/console you can imagine (bought or built by myself) when my dad bought us the Pong console in the 70’s. I am 48 now and i have had a LOT of PC’s and laptops and they where always specced for gaming. I know it's...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Octane VI review after 5 months of use.

    I already mentioned i want updates from the manufacturer (and PCS calls itself "manufacturer") but there aren't any i can download. Why do i need to ask PCS for a new BIOS from their hand if it is so easy to offer it to their customer on a simple support download page, also my BIOS is older than...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Octane VI review after 5 months of use.

    CONCLUSION: Yes it does what it needs to do but i think i am going to sell it and buy one from a competitor that does not only provide better thermal solutions, a unlocked BIOS and support for manufacturer firmware & software. There are several competitors to choose from also keeping the Brexit...

    I think there's not enough reviews online (YouTube) of PCS and it's products. PCS really needs to push it more imho. Ofcourse you can find several reviews (not that much tho and some are really old) of other Clevo barebone brands but PCS could hype itself and it products a bit more ;)
