My laptop that a bought from pcs recently had its screen broken and I have talked to pcs over emails and I have gotten a price tag on the repair and I was told to review the 'RMA process' on their website which I can't seem to find. Any advice on where to find this or what to do would be very...

Yesterday I pulled my headphones out a bit fast and the metal bit on the end snapped in half and got stuck in. Super glue then got involved and basically there is no way of getting it out. Is there a way I could order a new headphone, mic and speaker jack and then have the new one installed...

problem solved :)

I ordered a laptop 2 weeks ago with a gtx 970m graphics card, I was told by a notification that it was out of stock and should arrive around the 27th of September. Yesterday I was curios so I checked if the notification was still there (by putting the spec in and pressing proceed) and it was...

I was looking at the specs of the vortex IV and I noticed two things I didn't understand: the graphics cards (gtx 970m and 980m) had lots of VRAM (6gb and 8gb). Why do they have so much VRAM, and does this effect performance and lifetime. There was also no approximate battery life so if anyone...

I was just wondering if it's true that you can't replace the defiance's graphics card once it's in the computer, and if so is their any way I can replace it if it's faulty. And if this is true then is it worth it to downgrade to a gtx 960m graphics card on a Optimus and be able to replace it...

I read in the forums that the defiance's graphics card cannot be replaced once it is in the laptop, and I am currently getting the gtx 970m but was wondering if it is worth upgrading to the 980. Anyone who knows roughly how long each will last before they stop running games could you please help...

Im configuring a laptop ATM and was wondering whether it is worth having 16gb of ram rather than 8gb. Will it effect the life of the laptop and the performance? It is about £60 extra for 16gb. Thanks for any answers.

I have configured 2 laptops, a defiance 15" and a Optimus 15", and they have the same specs except the defiance has a nvidia geforce gtx 970m 3gb graphics card, while the Optimus has a 960m 2gb. The laptop is for schoolwork and gaming on newish games (such as COD BO3) and the defiance is about...

I'm configuring a defiance laptop and I'm not sure whether to get two 500gb 7200rpm 32mb catch, or one 1tb western digital blue 5400rpm 16mb catch, any advise on convenience, performance difference, ect. will be very helpful.

I'm getting 16gb of ram in a laptop I'm configuring but I can't decide whether to pay extra for hyperX impact, does it make a noticeable difference in performance and does it last longer? All info will be helpful- thanks.

I'm not sure whether to get a kingston hyperx savage ssd with my Optimus VI 17", by using the second hard drive option and getting rid of the disc tray, or getting a crucial m.2 ssd in the m.2 ssd option and keeping the disc tray. The savage isn't much better than the crucial, but does getting...

Looking to buy a 17" Optimus, but will it overheat easily? I saw a someone complain it got very hot when playing games so I was just wondering.

I'm thinking of getting a Optimus VI 17" laptop with a. 250gb ssd, will this replace the disc tray of the laptop?

got these specs after a lot of research, I'm pretty much set but just going to check if their are any improvements i could make. Specs: Chassis & Display Optimus Series: 17.3" Matte Full HD LED Widescreen (1920x1080) Processor (CPU) Intel® Core™i7 Quad Core Mobile Processor i7-4720HQ (2.60GHz...
