I ordered it over the phone a few days ago, and it still just says 'processing' on my orders. Wondering how long they usually take to dispatch it? Quite keen to get the RMA underway..
I didn't realise they would repair it anyway for a charge even if its not covered, that's good.
I don't have any of the original packaging - do you think it's worth ordering the packaging they provide before sending it back? I believe I could package it safely myself but I'm not sure if that's...
Really appreciate all the comments guys. So I've dried out it, tried it again today, and still no sign of life at all.
Not sure where to go from here, apparently RMAs are taking 3-4 weeks, and I'm not even sure if they'd cover it if it's from condensation?
The is the first time I've lived here in a while, but yes that's exactly how this room used to get in the winter. Literally dripping from the ceiling near the window, mold, etc.
The picture of the dust build up is the fans at the front of the PC. All the fans inside had little droplets on (top fans and the side ones).
Something I forgot to consider is that I vape in this room - but googling it I get mixed responses. Some people saying they've vaped next to their PCs...
It's been in this particular bedroom for 2 months. No tumble dryer, fridge unit, etc, just a TV. The room has had damp problems in the past around the window area, but I ran my old PC in here for 15 years with no issues of this kind. You think there's no way it's the AIO if the condensation...
There honestly isn't anymore information I can give lol. The only other alternative is if the water cooling has leaked, but then idk if that would cause the glass to fog up, and how it would have found its way to all the fans.
I'm not sure it constitutes unreasonable care.
It was a thin layer of dust on this fabric bit on the outside of the PC that came away in seconds. The inside is spotless. As for the condensation (if that's what it is) is that really unreasonable care? In the 15 years I've used gaming PCs in this...
It feels to me like water. And it's not close to a window, rain definitely hasn't got to it.
And yeah that is dust in the last picture, I've cleaned it now lol.
I'm wondering, since the PC wouldn't power on at all before I noticed the water, is it potentially already damaged? Or is it...

I'll let it dry for few days and hopefully it comes back to life. I've also got a dehumidifier for the room now which should hopefully help.
My friend seems to believe a significant amount of water wouldn't be...
