    If you're still within the warranty period I think you should contact XFX and probably RMA it.

    Amazon UK is having a lightning deal on the Logitech G602 mouse - it's already 78% claimed and there's about 2 hours 45 mins left on it.
    I think it usually sells for around £60 new so this is a pretty good deal!

    he uses his pc for work (photoshop and lightroom) and it works great, would recommend this any day of the week over anything pre built like a nuc.
    edit: i just saw he wants an optical drive, lemme change things up
    edit 2: fixed
    edit 3: the monitor is 21.5" because that's the smallest 1080p monitor

    I kid. That's quite a profit on those speakers. Where they junk or did the people that sold them to you not realize their value?

    Guy at school like: My phone is so much better than yours cause it has a 3.4Ghz intel hardcore processor and a 4000 battery. Another time he also said I need the 4gb of ram on my phone for my daily usage (he uses his phone for texting, a few games, watching videos and social media) and then continued to explain that Instagram on its own would use up at least 1.5gb of ram.
