    Logitech G903 Issue - Looking for replacement

    I have had the G903 for about 18 months. Over the past few weeks, I have noticed that it each time I left click, it is generating multiple clicks. At this point it really is quite unusable.

    My MSI GT70 2PE just stopped working. Can't get it to complete POST. Purchase Jun-2014 so just 2years and 5 months. Out of Warranty, now and the MSI UK support is based in Poland. How have others faired with their Gaming Laptops? How long did they last without needing a repair?

    Asus RMA

    This is the type of thread where an Asus Rep should be scurrying to reassure potential customers and solve the problems of those who have already handed over their cash. It may also be useful if OCUK could reassure their own customers that if they purchase Asus products from OCUK then any...
