    Has anyone had this done?

    I work with a bunch of Software Developers and they reckon that a €20 assembly charge is a pretty good price. I'm just wondering about the quality of the assembly?

    apparently its not great. €20 is very reasonable, but not if you've to pull it apart again. build it yourself, its most of the fun anyway. if you're in Limerick, I'll give you a hand. if you're in Dublin, Deconduo is always willing to help people out.

    Expect them to mess it up and necessitate some fixing. Still saves a lot of effort tho. If you also pay for windows installation that will at least force them to check that it powers up -.-

    Over several commercial orders I saw lots of screwups: They cabled it in such a way as to block the cpu fan, also in other cases not all devices were hooked up.

    I've seen them mess up, a friends cpu cooler wasn't properly seated. There have been posts here about other bad work. You're best off assembling yourself.
