    *** The Official Playstation 4 (PS4) Thread ***

    Been playing my ps4 for a while now and loving the games and the pad feels allot better than the last one due to it being heavier. Only downside is the OS, it just doesnt feel finished as there are no options to customise it or move apps or hide them. It does really need allot of improvements...

    Graphics Card Warranties (UK Only) - Let's see how good they really are!

    Well i sent it back to ocuk and then they sent it to gigabyte and nothing since, rather annoying as I thought it would be rather a fast turn around and not having a working PC for a few weeks now. I have emailed ocuk a few times but its all down to gigabyte, they probably lost it or something...

    Graphics Card Warranties (UK Only) - Let's see how good they really are!

    I did a few days ago and got a response that it can take up to 28 days, which I am really hoping isn't the case and I get it back earlier as I thought gigabyte where really fast with RMA turn arounds

    Graphics Card Warranties (UK Only) - Let's see how good they really are!

    GPU was sent to gigabyte 17 days ago now, still hasn't been returned or emailed with any update since it was sent to them. I thought gigabyte where suppose to be quick, rather annoyed at how long it is taking.

    which one of these monitors ?

    yeah i don't think i could see myself playing 3d, i still find it a bit of a gimmick and i feel it ruins picture quality when i watch movies so probably just going to buy it for 144hz and hope i can max my 7970 out and still not 100% sure but i will be ordering something today

    which one of these monitors ?

    yeah moving toward the Benq XL2411T, wont be using it for 3d just 144hz and only thing putting me off it is the colour quality as it seems it needs a lot of calibrating to get right

    which one of these monitors ?

    I really cant make my mind up with which monitor to buy, i do quite a bit of gaming and the odd occasion some 3ds max work. These are the ones ive narrowed it down to but still cant decide which one is best for my money. I'm really out of my depth when it comes down to monitors, i really don't...
