Welcome to the digital workshop of Ostrovskiy Alexander, your go-to expert for bespoke PC assembly services throughout the United Kingdom. With a meticulous approach to component selection, assembly, and optimization, we deliver high-performance computing solutions tailored to your exact specifications and requirements.
Our Expertise: Where Technical Proficiency Meets Customization
At the core of our service is a deep understanding of computer hardware architecture and the intricate interplay between components. We don’t just assemble PCs; we engineer computing ecosystems designed to excel in your specific use-case scenarios, whether you’re a professional content creator, a hardcore gamer, or a business requiring robust workstations.
Component Selection: The Foundation of Excellence
Our process begins with a thorough analysis of your computing needs. We consider factors such as:
- Processor Architecture: From the latest Intel Core and AMD Ryzen series to specialized workstation-grade CPUs, we select the optimal brain for your system.
- Graphics Processing: Whether you require NVIDIA’s RTX series for ray-tracing capabilities or AMD’s Radeon line for compute-heavy tasks, we ensure your visual and computational needs are met.
- Memory Configuration: We calculate the ideal RAM capacity and speed, considering factors like dual-channel performance and XMP profiles.
- Storage Solutions: From lightning-fast NVMe SSDs to high-capacity HDDs, we design a storage hierarchy that balances speed and capacity.
- Motherboard Selection: The backbone of your system is chosen based on form factor, expansion capabilities, and long-term upgrade potential.
- Power Supply Units: We perform detailed power consumption calculations to ensure stable, efficient operation under all load scenarios.
- Cooling Solutions: Whether air-cooled or liquid-cooled, we design thermal management systems to maintain optimal operating temperatures even under sustained loads.
Who We Are
Our Assembly Process: Precision in Every Connection
1. Component Preparation and Verification
Before assembly begins, each component undergoes a rigorous inspection and testing process. We verify serial numbers, check for any signs of damage, and ensure all necessary firmware updates are applied.
2. ESD-Safe Environment
All assembly takes place in an electrostatic discharge (ESD) safe environment. We utilize anti-static mats, wrist straps, and specialized tools to protect sensitive components from potentially damaging static electricity.
3. Systematic Assembly
Our assembly process follows a strict protocol:
- CPU Installation: We carefully align and seat the processor, applying the optimal amount of thermal compound for heat dissipation.
- Memory Installation: RAM modules are installed in the correct configuration to enable dual or quad-channel operation where supported.
- Motherboard Preparation: All necessary standoffs are installed in the case, ensuring proper alignment and grounding.
- Power Supply Mounting: The PSU is securely mounted, with cables routed for optimal airflow and aesthetics.
- Storage Device Installation: SSDs and HDDs are mounted in designated bays or M.2 slots, with consideration for airflow and cable management.
- GPU and Expansion Card Installation: Graphics cards and any additional PCIe devices are securely seated and properly supported to prevent sag.
- Cable Management: We meticulously route and secure all cables to optimize airflow and enhance system aesthetics.
4. BIOS Configuration and Initial Testing
Once assembly is complete, we enter the BIOS to configure system parameters, enable XMP profiles for memory, and set fan curves for optimal acoustic performance. We then conduct a series of stress tests to ensure system stability under load.
5. Operating System Installation and Driver Optimization
We install your chosen operating system, whether it’s Windows, Linux, or a dual-boot configuration. All necessary drivers are installed and configured for optimal performance.
6. Benchmark and Stress Testing
Each system undergoes a comprehensive suite of benchmarks and stress tests to verify performance and stability:
- CPU Stress Testing: Using tools like Prime95 and AIDA64, we ensure the processor performs as expected under sustained loads.
- GPU Stress Testing: Utilizing 3DMark and FurMark, we verify graphics card performance and stability.
- Memory Testing: Tools like MemTest86 are used to check for any RAM instabilities or errors.
- Storage Performance: We benchmark SSDs and HDDs to confirm they’re delivering expected read/write speeds.
- Thermal Performance: During all tests, we monitor temperatures to ensure the cooling solution is performing adequately.
