Dissapointed....

[Uvo]

It has cost me over 20 pounds for postage now and this is just way too far. To the other poster: Not a full system, its prebuilt.

given that they have supplied you a faulty card (3 times), should OCUK not be covering the cost of return postage?
When did you purchase the card?
does DSR and/or Sale of Goods Act not state that if an item is faulty, then the consumer can ask for a refund, repair or replacement at no extra cost to them? surely return postage is an extra cost.

They offered me that yes, got to make a pic or scan of the receipt.

Im confused now, people tell me 3 cards surely wont be a GPU problem.
So what now, I have to damn send everything piece by piece ?

(2nd acc this.)

Er... why?

Anyway - for heaven's sake, get OCUK on the case!!! They sold you the whole lot so should sort it out. RMA the mobo and PSU at least (RAM and CPU too ideally) and get them to find out what the problem is. And demand your postage is returned. Stop acting like you've got no rights and no hope! As I said - you should be having this discussion with OCUK - or at least point them to this thread! You're not really helping yourself!

What size monitor?

 

[Garonazz]

1680x1050
60hz

 

[Trusty]

1 faulty card = happens

2 faulty cards = really bad luck

3 faulty cards = no way

cant really be anything else causing this?

PCI-e slot?

 

[Garonazz]

what do you guys suggest ? Try the card and monitor on a different system ?

Ive tried before but my friend dint get any display after connecting the card, but he didnt uninstall his previous ATI drivers. it might be that ?

Odd! You still should have got a signal coming through i think.


Well yeah test it in another rig if you can. Its not the GPU, cant be really, 3 cards?! You've tried the monitor with the onboard GPU and it was fine so we can rule that out aswell really.

Gotta be the mobo or PSU like Stulid said. Surely?

 

[Garonazz]

oh come on...

What if it is the gpu ? :/ what IF...

Now ill have to wait a god damn month again probably because of sending the damn parts away and spend 100 quid on postage.

What if im killing the cards on start up somehow ? because last 2 WERE confirmed faulty. What can it be though ?

WHAT TO DO... :/

 

[Trusty]

Test in another rig then obviously.

 

[stulid]

you got Members market access? ask for help in the wanted section from someone nearby who can check your gear?

 

[Garonazz]

Dont have access.

Im just so worried something is killing the cards, and I dont know why or what

 

[stulid]

get access, you got the post count and membership time.

 

[Garonazz]

Alright, ill do that, but how ?

On topic: So im guessing it can be the monitor or mobo right now guys ? Or i keep killing the cards somehow ? ive no idea.

 

[stulid]

just enable your trust, click the button.

 

[Marvin]

Whereabouts do you live?

 

[Garonazz]

Right ive done that.

What about my question ?

Southern Scotland, just at the border. (Near Carlisle)

 

[Garonazz]

Well sigh, like Ive said then, seems to me ive gotta see whats happening on another PC

 

[theron]

updated the bios yet?

please also boot into safe mode and see if the problem remains.

 

[Garonazz]

I cant play in safemode, and the problem only is in games.

And this is a 3rd card. Sigh..

3 cards obviously must mean the GPU isnt a problem, I know im going to test it at friends but come on, what IS the problem ?
