    PCSPECIALIST Monitor screen repairs

    Just updating this Samsung denied the warranty and told me to buy another monitor. The panel is more expensive than buying a new one. There is one listed on eBay with the exact same line down the middle of the screen. Messaged the seller and same as me, just turned it on one day and it was...

    PCSPECIALIST Monitor screen repairs

    Yeah thought as much. I'm just confused as to how it happened and I don't know the cause of it. I'd be happier if I'd knocked it over etc then it'd be obvious. Anyway cheers Spyder, I'll get running through the warranty process.

    PCSPECIALIST Monitor screen repairs

    I know this isn't Pcs related but I'd thought I'd ask for input, feel free to delete/move if needed. I have a G7 32 that has cracked straight down the middle of the screen. The screen was fine before I went to work then cracked when I got home. Nobody else was in the house, no pets etc. The...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST The long pre-production working times are unethical

    As most posts above have explained there's a global shortage of pretty much everything used to make electronics. It's been fairly well publicised too, on the news etc. Your ordering a custom pc and as with almost anything that's custom built payment will be taken upfront. Pcs also don't hide...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Changing Priorities Ahead

    I haven't really played anything for the past year. Bar Warzone for couple hours a few nights a week with mates, just for a laugh and a catch up over lockdown. I just seem to be not that bothered anymore. I've got Ac Valhalla, I just dip in and out a few hours here and there. Not even off the...

    PCSPECIALIST 3080 gone into build, Monitor suggestions appreciated

    Picked up an Odyssey G7 32 for £520 should be delivered Friday. Should be a very good stop gap, also gives me chance to get used to a curved display.

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080

    Finally got my build today, wasn't in for the first three deliveries lol. Just wondering if anyone had received the Samsung SSD promo codes? Haven't received anything in my emails. I'd guess I've missed out but thought I'd ask (I'll email PCS too). Got two packs of fans on the way, CPU (5600x)...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080 w/ Ryzen 9 5900X

    Builds are completed by order date, so oldest will be prioritised. Say your at 80 days and someone at 90 changes their build to require a part that was allocated to you, it would be given to them. There's alot of info in the stickies aswell so I'd give them a read too.

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080

    Don't want to get your hopes up lol but me and Maga got built on 106-108 both awaiting dispatch so can't be long now I'd imagine. There's also Undy further up who who ordered same day as me awaiting dispatch too.

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080

    Pretty much exactly the same for me. I had theme park world instead of rollercoaster Tycoon also the had the Harry potter game although I only played around half as it kept crashing at a certain point. Been on the original Xbox one since about 2014 year after release I think. Never had any...

    PCSPECIALIST 3080 gone into build, Monitor suggestions appreciated

    Yeah I have only started watching him in the last year or so, gives a good contrast as GN is definitely alot more serious? maybe not the word as they have laugh too, focused maybe better. Anyhow I think Jays channel leans quite bit more toward entertainment, he's more haphazard and less rigidly...

    PCSPECIALIST 3080 gone into build, Monitor suggestions appreciated

    Those along with GN (don't do monitor testing as far as I've seen though) are pretty much the gold standard as far as I've seen. I watch Paul and Jay aswell though.

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080

    I'd dropped a couple of things from my build to stock probably made it easier. It's my first actual PC so Ill be installing some components myself just to get a feel for how it works. When I get something new I like to find out how stuff interacts with eachother incase I need to remove or...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080

    I wasn't all that bothered for last 20-30 working days, just checked in here to see how people were getting on. Then got the build email, ran round work telling anyone and everyone lol.

    PCSPECIALIST 3080 gone into build, Monitor suggestions appreciated

    Appreciate the reply Spider, I'll have a look through these and flick through these. I'll also rewatch (not paying too much attention when I didn't have the pc coming for a few months lol) Hardware Unboxed monitor reviews as they seem to be the best out there currently. They include proper...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080

    If had to guess they probably allocate parts for builds near the top of the build que with everything in stock. You'll probably be in building early next week or tomorrow if your lucky lol. All pure speculation though so definitely could be wrong.
