I'm sorry to read of the issues you've been experiencing. I certainly would welcome you posting more info here and we can help you work the problem and potentially even give more ideas of things to try in the hopes of remedying or more accurately pinpointing any potential cause of the issue(s)...

Title changed, however I hadn't realised you'd also messaged here.

Hey, Depending on the age of the machine PCS could probably help with an RMA if you're not confident in rooting about inside yourself. Do you have the specs from your order page (on main PCS site)? Most desktops now are very easy to access via the side panels etc. Push come to shove though if...

Threads merged.

Looks like a dressing gown... the red is a bit garish in my opinion albeit perhaps muted when the coat's closed but each to their own!

Its not permitted to buy/sell here. You can maybe try eBay/FB Marketplace etc. I'm going to lock this post.

I've only tried it a few times at work and I don't like it currently, there are a few QOL things I would like implemented before I try and get too far into it (really basic stuff that doesn't really affect anything but .. its how I like things). Most of the issues I have with it from a user POV...

I need to find some big boy pants and go replay the original. It is still one of the scariest gaming experiences I've ever had.

@TonyCarter @Martinr36 I've deleted the short exchange between yourselves as it was politically leaning. I first sent a gentle reminder on this back in May https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/forums/threads/one-liners.71763/post-743315.

Think it can play crysis?

I didn't really realise they were a thing, I don't see many Apple laptops out in the wild! The company I work for uses Dell laptops and there's no vertical stands here. Seem daft to me, aesthetics over function.

I lightly edited your post to remove the unnecessary spacing, hope you don't mind. What is your budget for the laptop? I'd remove the Norton as its effectively useless, Windows Defender is perfectly fine for almost all home uses. I'd consider going for at least Silver warranty and adding the...

Hi, Have you checked to see if your cooler is plugged into the mobo correctly both mechanically onto the cooling plate and also electronically for the fan control? Might need to be removed, cleaned and replaced if there's been some degradation of thermal paste for example. If you're not...
