On the ASUS cards, it's by the PCI-E fin on the card itself. Worth taking a photo on your phone or writing it down then putting it back in your system.

Typically as I have a glass desk top table case, I had to take everything off to take the glass off to get to the card after I fitted it the first time. I then put everything back together and tried to get my code via the redemption site to find when submitting all of my info I'd get the error 'Very sorry! This Product shipping country does not meet!'.

As I'm not having any of that, I've now e-mailed out to ASUS Customer Service as well as Overclockers & the ASUS twitter in hope to get it.

If you find any other way of getting your code, please post it back here - it would be appreciated. :)

Holy ******* sh**. What did he think he had in his hands, a Kinder ******* Surprise.

I’m sorry, unless that was a joke video no one with that IQ level should be allowed such an item. I can only assume someone else built that PC for him, Verge flashbacks intensify. :eek:

Some people are impatient and don't really care about the packaging, no need to imply that he's stupid.

Was just stating facts, I also don’t have a reason to rip apart the packaging to a £1500+ item that there is very few of right now that might end up needing to go back because of a fault at some point or might want to sell on in the future either, but why would anyone do a dumb thing like that.

Again, unless that was some sort of joke video and/or he’s rolling in money he behaved like a zoo animal, there’s even a small chance he could have ended up damaging the card, either grabbed and put pressure on it wrong or it might have gone flying, there is no sugar coating it.

How exactly would making a few tears into the packaging prevent him from returning it or selling it? Also you weren't just stating facts, you were saying people with low IQs shouldn't be allowed to buy a GPU, even if it was a joke, get a grip and let people have fun without getting **** on. :rolleyes:

Good point, but he could have needed it for a future RMA

Impatient? it's a simple flap release, his fumbling about took longer than doing it properly, it's not a Rubiks cube :p so at some point yea, you have to question his logic

Based on the 13 in the first consignment I'd expect slightly higher this time.
40 is what I'm hoping for, but 20 seems realistic
 
Couldn't bring myself to cancel my order on Friday. Put me out of my misery Gibbo!

It doesn't seem like the Ventus OC is a particularly popular option at the moment, but there doesn't appear to have been any shipments in the last couple of weeks.

I added 100 to the gpu clock, 900 to memory and put temp and power to max..it was quite loud and my wife said at one point the computer sounded like it was going to take off!

Any plan to watercool the GPU? What's your thoughts about performance and what resolution you play?

The savage box opening is one thing, but what triggers me is his ram is installed in the wrong slots, rip dual quad channel XD
