Avoid. They used to be great - now they're rubbish. System wasn't even tested.

Ordered a high end system from them. A week after the order was placed I received an email telling me the motherboard I ordered was no longer in stock. Yet, it was marked instock for days on their website after the order was placed. After I contacted them I was informed that dozens of people had the same issue... and that they're unable to manage their own stock inventory.

They replaced the motherboard with another - an Gigabyte Aorus Master. And I thought all would be good and continued with the order.

However, when I received the system - turns out the AIO CPU cooler isn't "compatible" with the motherboard and there's no automatic fan control available unless you have an ASUS motherboard. Both the radiator and pump fan are set to maximum speed with no way to control via software at all.

It's obvious the PC wasn't even tested before it was sent out, the thing is as loud as a jet engine.

The standard system fans are also not able to be controlled by the bios - and are stuck on a high RPM setting.

Needless to say I got onto support, sent it back for a refund and I will take all future business elsewhere to companies who actually know what they're doing.

Seriously - looking for a high end system then get it built elsewhere - Overclockers.co.uk don't know what they're doing anymore.

Now I have to wait weeks for a refund - because they're just as incompetent at doing that as building systems.
