After the new system arrived, i've basically stripped the room, redecorated, and currently at the stage of building a new desk setup to replace the one that's currently in use.
Aye.
I do apologise for having a little rant here.
Definately not the right place for it, I can appreciate that.
Went all keyboard warrior for a moment.
I'm certainly raising it with pcs themselves.

Unfortunately, it would seem 100 days is NOT the magic number.
If the cards are not due till the 16th, that will put me on 111 days.
Fingers crossed for an earlier batch.
yeah, tell me about it.
My youngest has an annoying habit of mauling the screens when he's sat with me.
I've all new stuff to setup once the new systems ready though, so tbh.... I've kinda given up on trying to maintain whats there atm.
Current state of affairs, whilst in the queue for the 3080 to complete my new system.
And yes..... YES.... that is indeed the psu from my sons old pc "balanced" on a box and Mcguyvered into my 10 year old system :cool:
