GPU Woes

[ShavedCloaca]

Hi All,

 

I have been having a few issues recently with warranty, i sent off my card almost 2 months ago to the re seller, they then sent it off to Asus.

Yesterday i get a call from the re seller about a partial refund, they offer me £224, i originally paid £450, unfortunately due to terms and conditions, i am unable to get a full refund, and no replacement as 9 series is now EOL.

 

I am now needing to go on a GPU hunt, used or new, but at a reasonable price, i can probably go to £400 currently, have you got any suggestions on what i should do?

 

Cheers,

ShavedCloaca

at that budget i'd look to find a gtx 1070 or maybe wait and see what happens with the 1070ti if it is actually a thing then it would be worth waiting for.

Hi there Shaved

 

Well all the support from us for a shitty customer service in whichever seller your dealing with. In this regard, if you can and feel strong enough, I suggest to denounce them and get back your money or a new graphics card. I don't know from which country are you, but in Sweden this practices are totally illegal. So yes, check your options with lawyers or some kind of customer lawyer service and maybe you'll save some bucks.

 

Now in the GPU thing. With 400€/£ I suggest the best you can get from Nvidia.

I myself have a 1080 an wouldn't change it for anything  Cannot recommend radeon as long as I've never tried them or experience their performance.

So I would say you can get a good 1070 in that price range, which I think quality/price is the best card on the market right now

Another 980ti maybe. Even used 1070 if you can find them

If it's stated in terms and conditions then doing that is meaningless.

Sure, I understand that. Then go vote next election for a party that goes for actual social rights

And then you can follow the rest of my post about the 1070.

Good luck

Not if the TOS breaks the law in the country the store is located. Voids it if so.
