We ship worldwide. Shipping fees are calculated at checkout. If your country charges duty/import fees/taxes, you are responsible for paying the shipping provider for those charges once the PC is in customs. We only include a US power cable. The end that plugs into the PC is a C13 socket. You will either need to purchase a cable that can plug into your socket type or you will need a socket adapter. Our computers work on 110v to 240v.
All of our default prices are in USD (United States Dollar), and currency can be changed from the main menu of our website.
Our standard warranty plan includes 3 years of part coverage and 5 years of service, as a way to show that we stand behind our computers. Additional extended warranty plans are available at an additional cost. Applies to desktop computers only. For more details click here.

7. Put the side panel back into place and screw the thumbscrews into the proper holes.
8. Proceed to first time setup.
Note: Ironside recommends keeping all of your original shipping boxes included with the PC. If your PC needs to be shipped back for warranty services, the original shipping boxes are the safest way to securely package your computer. Replacement boxes can be purchased for $59 upon request.

2. Connect your monitor, mouse and keyboard to your PC. If your computer includes a graphics card, please make sure you are plugging your monitor into the horizontal ports on your graphics card, and not the vertical ports on your motherboard.

If you can not find a graphics card port which your monitor cable fits into, you may need an adapter, that will be provided in the black Ironside accessories box.![]()

Maintenance
Keep your boxes
We recommend keeping all of your original shipping boxes included with the PC. If your PC needs to be shipped back for warranty services, the original shipping boxes are the safest way to securely package them.
Replacement packaging is available to purchase on our website.
Avoid Obstructing your PC Airflow
It is best to place your computer in a well ventilated area with at least an inch of space on all sides to ensure proper airflow. Avoid placing items or clothing on top or against your computer. Blocked vents can quickly lead to hot components, and heat is the arch nemesis of gaming PCs.
Regularly Remove Dust
It’s highly recommended that you keep your PC as dust free as possible. Blowing out the fans and vents on your PC once a month with canned air is generally a very simple and cost effective way of keeping your PC clean and dust free. Remember, extra heat can hurt your computer’s overall performance and longevity.
The liquid in Iron Tundra liquid cooling should be replaced every 6 months.
Note: If you are unsure of how to drain your Iron Tundra Custom Liquid Cooling please do not hesitate to give us a call at
Failure to maintain the Iron Tundra will void your warranty.
1. Turn off the PC.
2. Locate the drain on the PC. It is often a tube leading from the reservoir with a plug on the end of it or a ball valve.
3. Remove the cap on the drain tube or or open the ball valve on the drain over a bucket. The liquid should start to flow out. To increase the rate of flow open the fill port on the reservoir with a coin so that air can displace the liquid that is draining out. The PC may need to be tilted to remove most of the liquid.
4. Once the liquid is mostly removed you may close up the loop and dispose of the liquid.
5. To fill the loop back up simply follow the Filling Iron Tundra instructions located above.
Troubleshooting
1. Make sure the power cable is plugged into the wall and the PC power supply. Make sure the switch on the rear of the computer is set to the I and not the O. Proceed to press the power button located on the front or top of the PC case.
2. Make sure the power cable is plugged all the way into the power supply. Often times the power cable requires more force than expected to fully seat it into the power supply.
3. Try plugging the PC directly into the wall rather than a power strip. Plug the PC into a different outlet.
4.If you are still experiencing issues contact us for assistance.
1. Make sure the video cable is plugged into the display as well as the PC. If your computer includes a graphics card (most do), please make sure you are plugging your monitor into the horizontal ports on your graphics card, and not the vertical ports on your motherboard. Graphics card ports will be located below the ports on the motherboard in most cases. If you can not find a graphics card port which your monitor cable fits into you may need an adapter.
2. Check to make sure that the video cable is working correctly. If possible test it on another device to make sure it gets display with that cable.
