Tbh I'm done arguing turns out pcs has refunded me incorrectly the whole point of this thread. Case closed.

Again thats a really elaborate con. To purchase what you thought was a brand new gpu from pcs and to also buy a second hand gpu and switching. Spending all that money with the certainty that pcs would exchange it for a 3070. Also the certainty that someone would purchase the 2070 still in...

You are aware that an item such as a GPU has a serial number? Which I would hope would be checked on any refund from any retailer. Key words in my sentence "I PLAN". In any case it still doesn't make sense your now suggesting I ordered a 2070 from pcs and also bought a second hand one. Swap...

Doenst look like a brand new GPU to me.

So your saying the pics below are of a brand new GPU that was sent to me? I'm not sure what I find more worrying. That the person who made my PCS thought that it be alright putting that GPU in my case and that I'd be unlikely to look until it was too late. Or that every time I come on to this...

Sorry have I misread your message or are you implying something? The card (2070s) didn't just suddenly have scratches on it they where already there to begin with. Are you saying that its my fault that PCS sold me a 2nd hand product which I paid full price for (something that I may of never...

I paid 625 for the asus strix. However when enquiring I was referring to the generic 3070. This is when I was told I had to pay only £50 more on top. Which would mean that the generic 3070 would cost £463. I'm pretty sure this was not case as I believe the starting price was around £500. So im...

No as I was then told I'd had to pay for the 3070 (in full) as I couldn't pay on top. The amount refunded was £413 for the 2070 super. Which means I paid more the the £50 stated in the email. I asked for a itemised bill for each individual component at time of purchase which I was told they...

Just wondering why PCS don't do itemised billing for each individual item at the time bought rather than a grand total? This has occurred to me as I recently sent back a 2070 due to have scratches over it. I was refunded £415 for it. However when speaking to PCS staff over the phone they told...

Might be an idea bit if you can afford to maybe see if you can upgrade the card to a newer model? This is exactly what I did (2070 to 3070). The replacement took exactly a week. I imagine it would of been a much longer wait if I stuck with the 2070 as it was no longer on the configurator.

Yeah I'm running a 3600x bit hesitant to upgrade to a 5900x in this case. Would have to run the fans on extreme when gaming

Yup temps are fine gpu sits at 36 in idle cpu in the 40's. Don't really play any demanding games apart from maybe metro exodus and maybe Arma 3 if that counts.

Its corsair being conservative. Its about 32 cm with the bottom front fan in. Theres maybe just under 1cm between the gpu and fan.I did have to unscrew the gpu brace off to actually get it in the case but managed to screw back on once in. Interestingly enough pcs where at one point selling the...

The answer is just about.

Yeah that was my thought. I had a build sent out to me with a 2070. Upon taking the gpu out it had all scratches on it, I kicked off and managed to get it replaced for a 3070 asus rog. Cancelled my 3080 build ages ago but by the looks of it I'd still be waiting even now.
