    Cool, what kind of upgrades are you doing? Adding more RAM maybe?
  6. Nope, I didn't select any extra warranty service on that laptop, just the standard 2 year warranty that came with the laptop. I couldn't extract the HDD because the back cover was factory sealed if I opened it it would void the warranty entirely and I wouldn't have any RMA rights.
  7. I definitely know how this would feel, because I've been in the same type of situation. Here is my story, I was terrified as **** when my previous Samsung Chronos laptop decided to give up its life and die with all of my important school documents and reports that I've been working on for the past 4 months (some 3 40 page fully written documents about fire hazard and fire prevention). Firstly I told to myself it was just a random blue screen and everything should be working normally after I restart my laptop. Everything was normal, just like what I've expected but then another blue screen came along with a very high pitched screech sound coming from the main speakers after just 3 minutes of runtime. I've panicked because of the sound. Then I realized my laptop is dying after 5 months of ownership. What could I do, told I to myself. I couldn't just open it since it would void the warranty and have a 3 kg slab of aluminum stuck forever. I turned it back on and plugged a thumb drive in it and started to save as much as possible and after 4 attempts I had recovered most of the important data in that laptop. (I did lose couple of folders full of family pictures unfortunately ). Later on that same week, I RMA'd the laptop to the shop and they gave me full refund of the product after they fully verified that I didn't cause anything by myself. Since then I've learned my lesson and now I'm always backing up my files at Onedrive cloud storage, school server and at home to prevent myself stuck again with this nasty situation.

    Most useful add on ever https://chrome.google.c…

    It's to reverse the way videos are being played, some users like me a made music list and normally they play in sequential order (The issue is that it gets repetitive after couple of times). With the help of that plugin I can have at least a bit of variety by reversing they way they get played. (I'm just lazy) :-D The bad thing is that it's kinda broken after couple of hours trying it out, maybe YT did make a script code change or something. :-(
  12. My "best" friend hates Corsair, AMD, MSI and Samsung... He's having quite a lot of bad luck with his components. (he RMA'd 3x a Corsair PSU accordingly to what he told me).

    Lol! I knew someone is going to make an add on like this. It's so useful as some of the YT play lists are 150+ videos long
  15. I find that Dell and HP workstation grade systems do have quite some quality behind them (They got quite some severe abuse at schools and still function quite well). I would buy a Dell Precision M2800 if I had the money to buy

    I see, still that's for sure one expensive "mishap".
  18. What are you planning to do with the card. For pure gaming the R9 290X will serve you quite well.
