Never mind I'm sending it back!

OK, it's been a while since I upgraded my computer and this time round decided not to rebuild, and decided to upgrade case, add some cooling to my SSD and install liquid cooling on CPU. So I bought an SSD heatsink with fan and the Corsair Crystal 680X RGB , plus an Arctic Liquid Freezer II...

Certainly exciting SSD technology coming, but only if you have deep pockets.

Could be what is meant, but I have learnt never to assume anything! Clearer information would be nice :)

The other nice thing about the Intel is the 5 year warranty compared to everyone else's 3 year. Though as you say, still a little pricey, and even the write speed seems slow compared to the read as even the XP941 is 950MB/s (72,0000 4k IOPS), but I guess they are meant for Data Centres so the...

I was going to get a 4K G-Sync monitor, but since all the problems I have had with the latest GFX cards, I don't think I'll bother just yet. I have a 1080p 24" Samsung, so it's not like my current monitor is shabby!

Yes, dyspraxia in action, words disappear from pages (it's also linked to dyslexia). However, when I noticed my faux pas, I didn't see the point in blanking and re-uploading as Gibbo had already asked me to make the RMA numbers public in the forum, so it seemed pointless. Thanks for the...

Why thank you kind sir, if you consider me young at having turned 44 on Saturday! Though as I have mentioned, I believe my dyspraxia is playing a part due to the increased sensitivity to light, heat and sound sufferers of the condition are affected by. I also believe it is related to the...

Not sure but isn't it called SM951? I looked into them, but even the XP941 is as rare as hen's teeth currently with only the odd retailer having them on OEM. The new NVMe SSD's for PCIe & M.2 look promising, but so far G Skill has left a bad taste in my mouth, so will be waiting to see...

I wish it was, but considering the facts, the complaints and the overwhelming evidence, it appears not to be. Disappointing is an understatement! To be fair I have received email notice that the G Skill SSD has finally been refunded (after several weeks of complaints and stern letters)...

Seriously you just dodged a bullet! I cannot recommend the current M.2 Samsung XP941 enough. What I'm curious about is why OCUK isn't selling this awesome SSD and instead was selling that pile of junk from G Skill? Even more curious is why the Intel SSD is hidden form sale on OCUK...

Well today I have had to reject an attempted delivery of items I clearly sent back under CCR and faulty VRAM / Coil Whine. I raised the issue and returned these items 3 days from receipt, in perfect condition, which I proved as I included video documentation of me re-packaging them. Which I...

Thank you, I am glad you are finally realising what I have been saying for the past few weeks. You are not the first e-tailor to remove these products from sale. no images with competitor references please Considering they did this a week after the product came to market, it was rather...

Bailey, I have provided video evidence of the problem of artefacts, with accompanying video that it doesn't happen with my GTX760's. Nor do the 760's or any other video card I have ever purchased in the 20 years I have built computers make an irritating whine, which I am susceptible to due to...

Sure... I have had two faulty SSD's, accepted a replacement the first time, requested a refund the second time, OCUK claim their was nothing wrong with the item even though I have proof from the manufacturer confirming the fault and telling me to RMA the item. I requested refund for the...

OCUK returns policy and guarantees aren't worth the mark-up they are written with. I have had to start legal action against OCUK via my credit card company for breach of the Sale of Goods Act, Consumer Credit Act, Consumer Contracts Regulations and their own Terms & Conditions. It's a...

It's not gone well at all. I rung and was told I couldn't speak to a manager, we have since been engaged in a ridiculous game of postal tennis. I refused delivery of the returned item, but they sent it back again. I have now sent it back once more, with a covering letter explaining the...

not the game no, but I did try each card on it's own regarding the coil whine, and found both to be just as noisy, so that was enough for me to give up on them and send them back. Well it was 1:30 AM and I had work today!

In fact just to be totally fair, here is the same ceiling with the setting lowered, so I get @ 30FPS, still 50% less that the 970's where I was getting @ 60FPS, but clearly far superior quality. http://dance-music.org/bits/ACU_760_2.mp4 I'll take quality over quantity every day of the week :)

Heisenberg, I am 'certain' you are correct. Here is the a similar ceiling in ACU where I experienced similar issue only this time back once again running my old SLI MSI Twin Frozr 760's. http://dance-music.org/bits/ACU_760.mp4 Not a flickering pixel in sight, no artefacts, no...
