1. After the product is 28 days old you can either RMA with ourselves or the manufacturer.

To clarify this means you can either RMA back to ourselves or the manufacturer, the choice is yours.

So for instance it makes sense to RMA back to us, if the manufacturer does not have for say instance a UK RMA support facility, for example Sapphire. So with Sapphire you'd RMA the product with OcUK in the 2yr period, we will honour the warranty for the full 2yr period, or in the case of Asus 3yr etc. As we understand some manufacturers are not so easy to deal with and here at OcUK we want to ensure you get truly the best service and support.

However in some circumstances the manufacturer can offer a better service and quicker turn around time, for example KFA2, Gigabyte, Hard drive manufacturers and EVGA are famous for top level customer service and RMA support with quick turn around times. With these manufacturers we'd recommend you deal with them, simply as they can support and turn the product around quicker giving better service. Though again of course if the customer wishes we will deal with the product ourselves for them. What I would insist though is with printers, laptops and monitors after 28 days it is very advisable to deal with the manufacturer because many of them are actually on-site warranties which are the best and obviously like all other Etailors OcUK does not offer on-site warranties.

So just to clarify, after 28 days the choice is yours, you can deal with the manufacturer or OcUK, we will be happy to assist and do the best we can to offer the best service and attempt to get ourselves regarded as the best online etailor when it comes to RMA service.

Please remember though warranties, don't cover an end-user physically damaging a product due to in proper installation etc. or wear and tear, or in some cases modification. For example EVGA are fine with heatsinks being removed from VGA cards, as long as no damage is caused and they are re-fitted correctly if the card needs to be RMA'd, wheras other manufacturers removing the cooler voids warranty.

i just tend to stick with what i know if ya know what i mean, asus maximus gene may be a better board but ive never had asus before and gigabyte has always been reliable for me so i stuck with it, makes sense wouldnt u agree ?
 
The Asus maximus is m-atx so limits expantion, and to me it looks and is a pile of crumbs compared to MSI and Gigabyte, even AsRock
 
the giga is cheap an cheerful mate nuff said lol im not tryna spend thousands on a pc that is just a waste of hard earned money..well thats if you earned it hard LOOOL i have been using the conroe dual core processor with 2 gb ram and a 6850 and i was doing damage on bf3...i think its down to the actual person and not the hard ware, why would you spend alll that money to post videos on youtube ROTL
