Hi All,
Just wanted some advise about some issues, i recently brought a pre built pc from OCuk and expected to receive a sapphire HD5970 and a i7 930 overclocked to 4.0GHz but... I go this instead....
Powercolor HD5970 and a the i7 not overclocked, now i would have sent it back by now if this was all that different, however i also received a Gigabyte X58A-UD5 instead of the EX58-UD5, now the X58 comes with some extra features (3.0 USB etc). Originally i had asked if i have the X58 but they said not if i wanted the overclock so at the time i said i would go with the EX58....
Im trying to figure out what i should do... the GPU are basically the same, i don't have the cpu overclocked but i have a motherboard which is worth £40 more than the one i asked for..... what would you do if you were me?
Now about the card...... I know that the latest cards have been getting steadily larger and therefore heavier but to me a card which is not level is not a good sign.
Insert OMFG here...... honestly i love the case but it is rather large but looks amazing and is ten times quiter than the old Antec 902.
