are B grade returns?

[shaffaaf27]

just wanting to know, but are B Grade products used?

i just got a P35C-DS3R, and its clearly used, and dusty.

was wondering if i should return, or is this normal?

 

[shaffaaf27]

well i just for a GigaByte P35C-DS3R, and its DOA

wasnt packet well either, just a a brown box on the outside of the mobo box, with a bit of plastic, so the mobo box was moving a lot inside there.

gonna call OcUk tomorow for a refund

Just curious, but how much did you pay for it?

I noticed you have been trying to source a cheap C2D motherboard like i have...! I finally got a 650 today, after reading there aint much between the 650 the 680 and even the p35

hey, yeah i was, paid £45 inc postage for it.



now im gonna hopefully get that back, and wait till the end of the month for another £40 and grab a brand new, from a retailer, P5K-E wifi

i have now gone through second hand p5n-e and ga-p35c-ds3r both broken

and a 7800gt (second hand) got it today, its artifacting aswell

i AS5ed the 7800GT, and ill let it break in over night, running the 3d mode of ATI tool, and hopefully itll be better.

i got it for a 7600GS and £15.

yeah he had the cooler off, his was under water....

i even downclocked it to no avail.

he said if ti continues to happen, hell take it back

 

[shaffaaf27]

yeah, i got the mobo, manual, original box, but no back plate

no cable, or anything else, but i dont need anything else.

just to make sure the mobo is at fault, ill buy some purple shirt ram tomorow to check. if its still not booting into windows, ill give OcUK a call
