    Posted: 17 Nov 2007 at 1:34am

With Xmas soon arriving I'm sure your business will pick up more than what it is now.  What are the avg. wait times from order to delivery?  I know things happen, but wanted to kind of time my purchase to where it would arrive around the time I come back from being abroad.  As opposed to sitting in my house with no one to play with it Wink.

it all depends on the type of puter you decide on... if you get a water cooled painted puter expect a month... if you get a "normal" puter expect 2 weeks or so

Don't forget OSs! If you want a multi-boot system, each additional OS adds days of additional testing time.

Personally, I would order a system a month in advance if I wanted it here for christmas.  Just think what a small company like DSO would be going through.  If they say two weeks for build time, plan on it being 3-4 weeks. 
 
I mean no disrespect towards DSO, just the holidays are always crazy.  Plus its better to be safe.

I would say that right now the average wait time on a non-overclocked, non-watercoolled, no painted panels PC is about 8-13 business days. I imagine that after the Thanksgiving break it may go up to 10-15. As far as when December hits, I'm certain that we'll have enough staff to keep our shipping estimate at 10-15 business days. Adding any overclock can add up to 3 days, painted panels can add up to a week, and water cooling can add up to 3 days. Hopefully this will clear up the wait time question. I'll be sure to add any info as it becomes available.

For what its worth, my system was ordered/billed last Monday, and according to customer service is expected to be built today (Monday). My system had no delayed parts. So there looks to be a 5 day lag at the moment just in tackling systems from when they get queued up to be build, and actually start to be built.
 
Customer service did inform me that they'll be working through this Thanksgiving Holiday, which may help help them from getting any further behind.

This is Stage 2 Cooling with Processor Overclocking. Don't worry, it's the same thing =) Just made easier for the user to understand.
