Here's a tricky question

You ring up a Irish based company call center and a foreigner who you cant barely understand tried to help you, would it be bad to ask to transfer your call to a Irish agent?

Ah come on now, the Cork accent isn't that bad..

Fair enough. I'll shut up before I incur the wrath of more deathadder users.

I honestly really hate that kind of thing . If it's a European call center then they should have seperate numbers for each country to call so you get put onto someone who can speak your laungague natively .

What about us from down the country that can't understand Jackeens?

Do fedex deliver on saturday? Waiting on monitor from korea and im startin to get a bit impatient!!

Its in dublin (since the morning of the 27th) was marked as import and went to import centre but was cleared by 11am and was in a local fedex facility on the 27th jus hoping they do deliver saturday cause ill be there

In my experience, few couriers deliver/collect on a Saturday. You might want to ring, you could always collect from their depot..

I'm quite happy with mine. If I ever needed to replace it EVO would be my option.

Does anyone have a 970 extreme 3?

I got one recently for my new build and it's been nothing but headaches. Took me hours yesterday to get it working, was getting various boot errors, blue screens, and a load of other issues - same hardware as my last build apart from the board and cpu. Now I've discovered the USB3 header doesn't seem to work! :mad:

can you name few of bios errors?
Also try booting with just 1 RAM module in different slots, see if anything changes at all
Guessing isn't going to help, really.

TerrorFirmer

I was more just wondering if anyone had any similar problems. I've the other problems solved but the USB3 one is driving me mad, mostly because I bought the new case specifically for USB3 front ports! Neither of them work anymore, headers plugged onto the board - they did work initially, but just randomly stopped, and now won't work no matter what I do. I've tried a usb3-2 adaptor in the regular headers and the front panels work fine, so it is the board...

game4it70

Is the USB 3.0 Controller enabled in the bios and drivers installed for it?

TerrorFirmer

Yup, again, was working fine, then randomly turned on my PC, not working, doesn't work in a new install either, but the case header is OK as it works with a USB2 adaptor OK.

TerrorFirmer

Really weird, it was working fine with the latest Etron controller, stopped working, I tried uninstalling, reinstalling, etc, eventually tried a much older version, from nearly 2 years ago, and suddenly it works again! Can't pretend to understand it, but I'm prepared to just accept it....:o

Ive finally replaced that filthy stock cooler with a H100i (illl be WC properly next year ) and have got 4.5GHz on 1.31v without much work temps are in the low 70's but i expect that in my very warm room and using a TIM that needs a week of burn in

H series coolers are a bitch to mount though

now to decide if i want a ps4 or another 780 :pac:
