Actually Dells arnt to bad i guess, as long as you dont need to call tech support.

[Da_elf]

haha trust me not everyone has that experience. I would love to use Boxx's at work, but they are on my boss's shitlist. Everytime I mention them, he retells me the story how our company are proud owners of some of Boxx's very first machines that rolled off their assembly line. He thinks they are way too expensive for what you get. So now we have homebuilt PCs purchased by a small local company who built them. Only they are a bunch of idiots. All our machines have the wrong RAID among other issues.....

tisk tisk

[DaForce]

hehe i was mainly digging at Dells' outsourced tech support
I doubt Boxx would have their tech support based in india.

Also my CPU and RAM have been SHIPPED!!!!
And i should have them by Monday

feckin' finally.

Made a great thread out of it tho didnt we

[jacksc02]

about friggin time!!

[DaForce]

yeah i reckon. Well the cpu worked out to be $70 cheaper than what it initially was going to cost so i guess thats a little bonus...or something.

ahhh now maybe we can let this thread die a well deserved death

[paulison]

you went with DELL??? eeewwwwww...

Well I've always thought anything from one of those big companies would be a load of rubbish as well until we actually got a few and have had no problems. Havnt had to call tech support but im betting they are all as bad as each other in this department....May as well just google the answers if its software related.

Theres really only one reason for this decision and that is availability...we cant get anything else and dont want to go through the kind of hassle DaForce is going through. Besides I've had or heard about similar shocking service and experience from many other smaller computer shops...

If anyone in australia knows where we can get 10 X2 or intel dual core systems with a local service centre (Perth) and on site repairs please let us know!

Im sure in the US its easy to get the latest technology but not here

[DaForce]

yeah i wouldnt wish what i have gone thru on my worst enemy. Its horrible.

P.s. Magically my 680w PSU showed up today. Odd cause i kinda didnt even order it... ah well atleast its here hehehe

haha! thats awesome

My 4400 arrived today according to UPS tracking, but it's in the managers office, I was at work all day and didn't have time to come home to pick it up. I'll get my grimy little hands on it tomorrow morning

not that it will do me much good until my mobo arrives though. haha

[DaForce]

Dah, dont you hate when that happens...so close yet so far.
I think a similar thing will happen to me, cause they will deliver it to my house and i wont be there, then i wont be able to get it till the next day.

Ahh well atleast its enroute now...definitly.

Any word on your mobo yet?

[Buck]

Any word on your mobo yet?

supposedly they send out another one to "replace" the one that is being returned to me, but I haven't recieved a tracking number yet. we'll see.

[DaForce]

Hmmm sounds abit sly. Ahh well as long as you get it.

Have you picked up any fans for your case yet?
