I use strictly them and they been fine with me. u said u got it off amazon. Was it a 3rd party or strictly thru a legit store?

Came directly from amazon.

I spent quite a bit of time on their forum and I saw a lot of post with issues with this card out the gate...once it worked people raved about how well it worked...but there were way to many post of changing bios settings and other shyt...or to many people who said they had to actually load the nvidia drivers before they installed the card otherwise it wouldn't be recognized...when in fact it should be the opposite...

At least the packaging was simple...took me all of 2 minutes to bag it back up

even if it came from a 3rd party, it should still be under warranty. unless something was done to it to void the warranty, like installing an aftermarket water-cooling block

Great laptop, best window laptop you can pick up.


I am surprised this is only being brought up now.
How’s the build quality on the XPS? Hoping to be my only PC for at least 5 years without much headache. Is that realistic?

If you aren’t gaming, it’s the best window laptop you can possibly have. Ive been waiting for 10th gen to move from the 15 to the 13.

6 cores and 32gb of ram in a 13” laptop :wow:

Apple needs to hurry with the 14” model, large laptops ain’t it.

Just got an ASrock Z390 Gaming SLI/AC board for free, CPU socket needs replaced. Found a few on Ebay for $15. Might build a 3rd pc with an I9 processor.

RDR2 is restoring the ‘13 and ‘14 feeling. In the worst way possible. :beli:

The game won’t even go past the logo screen, which just runs on an infinite loop :beli:

I download the new drivers, the new patch...nothing. The fukking game won’t run. I can’t even run the benchmark :beli:

I thought we were past this. Most other games run with no problem. I haven’t had a problem with a game in like 2 years. RDR2 comes out and I remember how fukking frustrating pc gaming can be. Goddamn it:snoop:

Chicago
Ryzen 7 2700X
ROG Crosshair VI Hero WiFi
G.SKILL Flare X 16GB DDR4 3200 CL14
WD Black 256GB NVME SSD
WD Blue 500GB HDD
WD Blue 1TB HDD
WD Green 1TB HDD
Seagate Momentus 500GB HDD
MSI RX Vega 64 AIR Boost
EVGA G3 750W Power Supply

I'll wait until the next GPU cycle to look up GPU upgrades.

Wish list has a 3950X.

While Ryzen can't clock high, it's crazy to see AMD surpassing Intel in IPC when it seemed like they were DOA just 3 years ago before Ryzen's release.
