Rare bargain without an issue or subscribing to a nightmare? What's your experience?
B Grade motherboards, cheap no problems love them.
B Grade Gigabyte 7870 and 7850 - nightmare, crashes, blue screens
B Grade Geforce GTX 580 great overclocker, came with 3 year warranty
B Grade Monitors, never touch them, stories of dead pixels, damage, no stand !
B Grade Gigabyte 2080ti - space invaders, crashes not recognising card.
B Grade can be a bargain, it can also be a lottery, you do get your money back always.
Word of wisdom : treat it like the old "try before you buy" in other words buy and keep a good one, return for a refund the bad ones and you wont be disappointed.
Tip: ALWAYS post in CS forum which B grade item you are after and ask for a revaluation on the price, 9 times out of 10 they will adjust the price lower.
Another tip if there is more than 10 items of a b grade remember the above!
OCUK have the best returns service. Never been charged for returning items. Not mentioning any competitors but also had good service from the one near Tong Garden Centre (is this the same one you are mentioning ??) if you know which one I mean. Faulty kit returned there for a refund replacement, ie NZXT X62 AIO went faulty after 8 months, returned it in person they tested it and gave me a brand new one.
Thinking of buying a b grade pc case. just wonder if its worth the £40 discount on new.
