Brilliant custom PCs and laptops.

Brilliant custom PCs and laptops.
I’ve bought my custom PC from PC specialist more than a year ago and it’s still going strong, never had a problem with it. The selection process was easy customisation was also easy and straightforward.

The same can be said for my laptop, quick and easy, had it for a couple of weeks inside the truck, works perfectly.

Perfect Laptop

The laptop was perfectly configured to my specification, delivery took a little longer than I expected but it arrived very securely parcelled. My wife is absolutely delighted with it.

Excellent service

After an older PC failed I needed a replacement quickly and having had a good experience with another build from PC Specialist I didn't hesitate to choose them again for the replacement. My thanks to the team that assembled the new PC for me. The build quality is excellent and I appreciated being able to follow the build progress through each stage. The build was fast but thorough. Once the PC passed QA the delivery process was very quick and the packaging kept the PC well protected during transit.

14 years of excellence

I've bought several PCs for myself and family from PC Specialist. Custom-build and delivery has always gone without a hitch, plus great advice on upgrading later.

Gaming PC purhase

My recent purchase from you has been nothing short of exceptional. The entire experience with PC Specialist was absolutely seamless from start to finish. The ordering process was smooth, the build quality of the PC is outstanding, and the performance has exceeded my expectations in every way.

Your customer service was equally impressive — responsive, professional, and genuinely helpful throughout the process. It’s clear that you take pride in both your products and the support you provide.

I’m extremely happy with my new PC and with the level of service I received. I would definitely choose PC Specialist again for any future upgrades or new purchases. Highly recommended.

Very impressed by PC Specialist. Specifications were clear, with a wide range of options. The laptop we ordered arrived quickly and was very well packaged. Most importantly, the final product is excellent.

A good build

A good build. Instructions to include how to mount the graphics card support without snagging the fan would have helped.

The PC is beautiful

The PC is beautiful, it runs like a dream, and while i did have some initial issues from MY OWN ERRORS the tech guys were super helpful in guiding me through fixing them.

turn around and delivery was spectacularly fast too, well worth the money paid.

Great experience throughout the…

Great experience throughout the process, from configuring my new Super Machine to the delivery. They still maintain the honesty and integrity I experienced when I got my old machine from them in 2016. They have been so supportive in ensuring my old machine continues to serve me. The new machine is higher grade, and both machines are making my work much easier than expected.
Thank you, PC Specialist staff.

New PC buying with no idea about PC's

I have no idea when it comes to computers, I knew they types of games I wanted to play. But when researching myself it was all just numbers to me. Emailed support and I couldn't have asked for any better service, quick response and after communicating over a few emails I ended up with the PC I wanted. Delivery was very quick too.

Would highly recommend.

£2864 later, I regret choosing PCSpecialist

£2864 later, I regret choosing PCSpecialist.co.uk

I chose PCSpecialist because I wanted the reassurance of having an expensive PC professionally built, tested and checked by people who knew far more about it than I did.

Unfortunately, the PC arrived with a visibly damaged/misaligned case. A replacement side panel was sent out for me to fit myself, even though PCSpecialist themselves described the Corsair 5000T as “a very awkward case design”. The replacement panel still didn't sit properly.

I also asked for the QC photos because I genuinely couldn't understand how obvious damage had passed inspection. PCSpecialist explained that their photos are taken “post build”, before the machine is “passed into our QC team”, followed by another “brief QC” before dispatch. No photos from those QC checks were provided.

At the time, I trusted the advice I was given and eventually accepted a £50 partial refund instead of proceeding with a complete case replacement. Looking back, I really regret that decision.

The PC was later taken to a repair shop, where the fan-hub housing was found cracked and squeezed into place. Since purchase there have also been repeated blue screens, unexpected shutdowns and unusually high idle CPU temperatures.

I didn't buy from PCSpecialist expecting perfection. I simply assumed that spending nearly £3000 with a specialist would mean these were problems I wouldn't have to discover and deal with myself.

Hello,

Thanks for taking the time to leave your review. I’m sorry to hear that your experience with us has ultimately left you disappointed,

I have reviewed the history of your order and the correspondence surrounding the case, and I appreciate that the situation was more involved than we would have liked. We initially arranged for a replacement side panel to be sent to you, and when the replacement panel still did not sit correctly, we offered a commercial gesture or case change.

Based on the circumstances, we believe this was damage sustained during transit.

We’re also sorry to hear about the additional issues you have since encountered. It doesn't appear these were raised with us, as such, we have unfortunately not had the opportunity to investigate them or establish whether they are related to the original concerns. We would still be happy to discuss these with you directly and see what support we may be able to offer, so we will reach back out to yourself directly.

We appreciate your feedback and are sorry that the overall experience has not met the expectations you had when choosing from us.

Kind regards,
PCSpecialist
