I bought a new PC in November 2020 and got delivered in Feb 2021. I want to move to 4K gaming at high refresh rate which I think will be possible with the new 7800XT/7900XT. I will upgrade my 6800XT and power supply. For those that have used the “upgrade” option in the past how easy was it do...

That is what is odd as I got allocated my 6800XT around the 22/23rd of December yet someone else posted up that he ordered on the same day and he had not been allocated a 6800XT yet someone else who ordered a 3900X and 6800XT got his PC built before him yet ordered his 10 days after the other...

When I raised this issue with Liam (amazing CS agent) he thought there might be something wrong with the system which was assigning CPUs to people who ordered later than others when they dropped their GPUs. So instead of the people being allocated the CPU when they were waiting for a GPU it went...

I mainly play games like Elite Dangerous, Fifa 21 (modded) , Rocket League , Apex Legends and PUBG. While I heard that there was issues with the 5700XT with DayZ and PUBG it was fixed around 6 months later well at least in PUBG. I want to play AC:Valhalla, RDR2 (played it on PS4 but think it...

Definitely, yes there was some stressful times and many phone calls to customer support. But I kind of feel bad about it now. It is not their fault that the supply across the world is low and then you add all the companies in the UK all wanting the parts for their customers. I personally would...

5900X it took a while to get one.

It is the Merc 6800XT and it is a big boy.

Mine arrived today. Only gripe I have is that with the case I got it comes with 3x120mm fans so thought they would place 3 that came with the case in the front and the PCS fan at the back. But at the front was 2 Lian Li fans and one PCS.

It is better for it to be tested and working properly than rushed and then having issues with it. A friend bought one from a competitor of PCS because they were cheaper. It must have gone back to them 5 times in 2 months due to issues that they could have sorted had they tested longer or just...

I ordered 14:07 on 18/11/20 so 7mins after the 6800XT was launched.

Build time was around a 2 or so hours. And test time was around 14-18 hours before I an email saying that it was ready for dispatch. Which was around 21:00 last night and then the email saying it was dispatched around 15:00 ish.

Mine just got dispatched so will hopefully get it tomorrow. Will post up which 6800XT it is. And will post some screenshots.

I would recommend to give them a call to check on stock. Not sure how many they are getting in. But would imagine the back log is lower due to market share. AMD only has a 20% market share. I did see someone else post up recently that he changed his order on the 18/11/20 and has not been...

Just be careful with some CS agents as your build position only matters if you have had all the parts allocated to your build. And that can’t / shouldn’t give a time frame unless you are close to having all your parts allocated. They listening back to the call that one agent told me I was number...

He needs to stroke it and call it nice names. Machines work better when they know that they are loved. 😂

I got told they do that not long before they into the build phase. When I rang and got told that I was told 1-2 days and then it would go into build. I got an email 4 hours later saying that they had started the build.

I think I got told either XFX or Merc but will confirm when mine arrives.

I have that monitor and my 5900X with 6800XT is due to dispatch today / tomorrow. But it was a wait for the 6800XT. But I would agree with others saying that a drop to the 3070 will do well at 1440p. I think I was lucky at getting the 6800XT for the price it is as most graphics cards have gone...

The problem is with the DDR6X ram as it is both expensive and rare because it is harder to manufacture. So Nvidia is struggling to get enough of it for their partners to make cards. It also did not help with Miners buying any where from $250-300m worth of 3080s. The card most are actually...

I went for a 6800XT due to the reviews at 1440p. From what I saw the 3080 was better at 4K than the 6800XT and the 6800XT was better at 1440p on some of the games I wanted to play. I bought the monitor a month before the 6800XT was announced so had not made my mind up on it yet. But managed to...
