  1. The 12 pin connector to single 8 pin adaptor on the 3070FE is daft through, at least I can request a free 12 pin cable from Seasonic.
  2. Well baking my GTX 1060 in the oven amazingly actually fixed it so I can fold again (for the time being at least). My spare GTX 460 wasn't really going to cut it.
  3. Main issue with Seasonic and others suppliers at the moment is supply most out of stock until mid/end of July so the current prices appear inflated otherwise the Focus GX-650 would be as it was retailing for under £90 when in stock. I use a GX-750 and it runs in silent mode most of the time unless GPU folding or gaming.
  4. Just a quick message to say I've been impressed with the Zotac RMA experience in the UK. A fan on my GTX 970 dual fan was dying and making rattling noises when under load, I thought I was out of warranty but I still had a couple of months left on the included extended warranty (5 years in total) so reported the issue. I was emailed back the same day and accepted for RMA I filled out the form I was sent and received an RMA number and the address for the UK service centre. Posted card on the Saturday arrived on Monday out they tested it the same day revived confirming it was faulty and that I had been accepted for replacement. Zotac contacted me the next day with an offer of a GTX 1060 6GB mini in return in place of the 970. I accepted and they couriered the replacement out and had it by the Thursday. Replacement card arrived well packaged works well and cosmetically looks as new. All in all without a card for less then a week very impressed the best RMA experience I have had for a long time. Just remember to register your card within the 28 days of purchase It's worth it. I was just going to replace the fan as the car worked fin apart from the fan as they say it can take up to 45 days if they have limited stock, But whats a few days lost gaming / folding in the scheme of things when its still covered by warranty. I will be buying a Zotac card again when I come to upgrade.
  5. Probably an Innolux panel as it was manufactured in November last year
  6. I haven't really noticed any for my monitor, this video review is what i looked at prior to purchasing the monitor and its been fine for TF2 and racing games and i've not noticed any ghosting when scrolling around strategy game maps like Total War mostly I've noticed the increased smoothness and the additional work space provided by the 1440p res.
  7. I have the Acer monitor below, the stand is not great but I use a monitor arm otherwise have been happy with it, the colours and viewing angles are far better then the 24" TN panel I came from. I wouldn't go for a 27" at 1080p as the pixel density is too low and is quiet obvious. I got mine from PCworld however the price has jumped up recently it normally goes for about £280-£290. https://www.expertreviews.co.uk/acer/1409596/acer-nitro-vg270up-review review details how the 1ms is obtained with the IPS panel.
  8. Nooo just realised that my client had reset to anonymous, I wondered where my points went for the day. lol
