You and the mod seem to like to talk about such situations. Are u guys degree holders in psychology? Or related in anyway? In this world there is no 100% right or 100% wrong. One always has an explanation for his/her course of actions.

As someone who has built PCs for over 3 years, I would say most of my clients, could name me a couple of stress testing tools just by simply googling. All this takes a simple gesture of willingness. If shops are unable to provide that basic level, it is easy to tell that they are not really interested in what consumers like us do to the product, as long as they are able to sell it. This speaks a lot about the reputation of any shop. The reason why shops like PCT are able to become popular are their enthusiasm to help out and try their best to diagnose, or at least point consumers in the right direction with regards to the different channels of help available. Now this is considered as "expectations of a consumer". Don't tell me as a consumer you have not thought of such before? If unable to help, at least point me in the right direction?

Whatever the argument was, as long as TS is able to reach a solution to the problem, or at least an alternative which he can choose to take, with that the purpose of the thread has been reached?

Went through the entire thread.... Point in which things got hot was when the mod asked " do you go to challenger to buy a laptop and ask the sale personnel to run various hardware tests before you pay? and more.... *dw to engage in rage comments* How did this post even found its way into this thread? Must be why Holee17 felt that the mod was targeting her and hence got pissed. Just simply misunderstanding between two adults that result in a conflict :S Worst when Mod queried about Holee knowledge of DIY... Firework liao lor~ Aiya such thing between two people really necessary meh.. Want to take it out go outside bash bash dont need to KBW.. Next day see news jie jie and uncle "make out" only lor~

May i pose a situation for debate on expectations? Imagine you are the bystander.

Fit guy was at traffic light and saw an old man crossing the road. He decided to help the old man. Half way through the zebra crossing, his back issue came about and was unable to continue helping the old man cross.

As the bystander, what is wrong and what is right?

TS, don't be disheartened by the obstacles you met in your learning ok? There is always bros, sis and mods here to help.

Do let us know when you solve your issue ok?

A hardware issue solved is always an accomplishment for the HWZ community. 😉

Haha... ok ok...

Can sub chio bus or milf.... instead? And yes... with the aid of some illustrations will be helpful... :D

I would, but I wouldn't because can score 3 EPL "points". Next time TS should just do this build;

Intel/AMD CPU
Cryorig Cooler
MSI MB
GSkill/Avexir RAM
Intel/Adata SSD
Seasonic PSU
Xigmatek/Sharkoon/Ah Lian chassis
Roccat/Steelseries keyboard & mouse

Anything hardware kaput, cab down to Corbell depot the whole system. New part easily they could fix/test with system. Think Corbell can do this out of goodwill since one contributes some sales for them :s13:

Better than having an Ehsues Tough Savertoot and Megabite GTX1080. Bring the Ehsues MB to Ehvertek then learning it's Bahn Sheong the correct distro, only then to learn that the MB is working fine at Bahn Sheong and then bringing the Megabite GPU to CPL. Only then to find out that the Megabite Designairé RGB doesn't sync with the Ehsues Streaks/Ohrar RGB...and so it is decided that both must be sold off

All these people talking about quality of service and technical knowledge but still walk right through the door of Tradepac.

Ppl who walked thru tradepac are those who are experienced, knows what he want, can troubleshoot if gt issues and there for the cheap parts. Never about service.

Which is why its not recommended for newbies here.

Hi bro.
I guess you don't know how this forum works but personally I would recommend you just direct all your opinion towards the member only just in case you get awarded points for minor things.
"Tio mark" in NS context if you get what I mean :s13:

The best way to stress test gpu is to keep in box... like what I did... confirm no issue one :(

I'm dead sure your hardware passed a more rigorous wallet stress test which supersede all synthetic stress test demanded by the self entitled one time system builder professional experience.

Your field Messi and his team of wallet stress tested team player against our young lion, fair game? :D

TS dun seem to be willing to apologies to shop for ranting on his mobo uplorry when it is fine all the while.

Previously i used my old gpu to test cannot also , thats why i purchase a new gpu .
It might be the pcie slot faulty ? I dont know ,
I thought motherboard will be able to detect gpu faulty or pcie faulty even without connecting to monitor ?
power on with gpu and psu and check the led light from motherboard ?
Im angry because the shop did not test with their gpu , what they mentioned is that they tried using motherboard to monitor and its fine but what about pcie slot ? They didnt try

Missed out this...then why din you go ask them at that point of time? So now what you gonna do? Bring your rig go to that shop ask them test their gpu on your rig and your gpu on their rig to know is it mobo or gpu issue lor.

Please read the above replies, do you need a degree in psychology to analyze the fault?

TS couldn't get both cards detected by the motherboard not sold by VP, VP sent him/her an email offering to test the graphic card to narrow the problem of DOA. The card detected and able to boot up using VP test system and run a video clip without any problem. Do this require a degree in psychology to tell what's wrong with the card sold by VP? Since when PC troubleshooting required degree in psychology?

Obviously some self entitled one time system builder are expecting too much from a tech support working in a DIY shop, in all honesty, the tech support fulfilled his duty to test the card to be in working condition based on his test system. The onus is on TS to prove him wrong which is no fault of the tech support since the card his company sold to TS is working correctly. What other stress test require to prove the card is working?

All these glorified DIY enthusiast stress test will be thrown out of is the matter go to court, no manufacturer claimed or printed "Passed DIY enthusiast stress test" on the box and put them on the shelve for sale, you have no case against any manufacturer if your card failed any of these self entitled stress test.

ok...let's put aside personal philosophy.

@ts, sometimes due to the quirky motherboard and casing alignment, IF ones tighten the screw tightly, it may cause contact problem in the PCIe connector. So, try fasten the screw gently and don't forget to connect the power supply to your graphic card. Boot and see how it goes. :o

Wao who turned up the heat?

Chillax leh, its just faulty hardware. I know its frustrating to have hardware failure lah, but no matter what, i dont think its good to rant on the shop. They have already done the testing for TS, and i think the only way is to bring down to the respective distro to handle. Don't see the need to rant any more in this thread instead.
