    Mishotaki reacted to Dedayog in Can Ultrasonic Cleaning help save my 3080?   
    Cleaning can't undo damage.  If there is actual shorting going on, cleaning won't do anything. 
     
    Maybe clean it then RMA it 🙂

    Mishotaki got a reaction from Hellreaver in Is the shipping experience normally this bad?   
    to me, the biggest problem is that they print the shipping label and it takes about a week for the package to actually be picked up by the carrier.
    it's been like that for most of my packages, like my recent Uncle Linus water bottle and windbreaker(they were separate orders), one was picked up 6 days after the first notification and the other 7 days.
    to the american customers: crossing the border takes multiple days, as a Canadian, i expect any package i order from your side to take about 2 weeks to reach me, as it always stays a couple days for customs to clear the package.

    I'm the IT guy at the office, I get called by the boss wife telling me that her computer doesn't work and that none of the 3 girls around her could figure out why. I get to her desk and see that the computer is on by the light, move and turn over the mouse and see that there is power to the USB.... look at the screen and see that it's not powered on... i press the power button and it's alive!
     
    none of the girls could explain how they didn't think that the reason that there was no video to the computer because the screen was turned off...
     
     
    Last month, I had a designer call me about her computer shutting down all of a sudden without any reason, I got there and saw that she had plugged a space heater and a toaster in her battery backup unit... when both of them were started at the same time that the computer was working, it totally flipped the breaker on the unit because it overloaded the circuit... She then tried to explain to me that there is no way that it would trip the breaker, they don't use that much power since they are simple machines that only do simple tasks... I then informed her that nothing that its sole purpose is to produce heat should be plugged in with a computer, i haven't heard anything about it since.
     
     
    last year, a CAD designer moved her desk, she was proud of it and told me that she plugged everything back in and didn't need my help.... a couple months later, there was a small power outage and she called me to inform me that the damned backup battery unit was dead and needed replacement. I got there with a new unit and when i was about to do the switch, i checked the connections, only to see that all the computer equipment was plugged in the surge protection side and her cell phone charger was the only thing in the battery side... so i told her that there was 2 good news:
    1- the unit doesn't need to be replaced
    2- her cellphone didn't stop charging while the power was out!
