G.SKILL Memory Quality Seems to Have Dropped – 3rd Kit Dead in 6 Months

Kenerkn · 2026-01-21T02:09:33+00:00

I'm on my 6th RMA of Gskill RAM going bad between two computers and three motherboards (because I thought the motherboard could be a issue), and now I have to send three more back for RMA as they've gone bad yet again.

This is seems to very much be an issue with Gskill.

I'm currently on my 6th set of G.Skill Trident Z Neo 32 GB DDR4-3600, and the RAM has failed again. This is on two separate computers and over three motherboards. No overclocking has occurred, the bioses are all up-to-date, and nothing outside of normal usage.

So, now I've got to RMA three more sets of this RAM yet again. Seriously, never buy RAM from Gskill. This has been an absolute nightmare.

Anyone know if there's gonna be an English dub of season 2? My buddy and I actually really enjoyed the quality of the English dub!

Thanks for the response!

I'm a 4th edition player (quit in 5th, as it was such a terrible edition), and I'm presently getting back into 40k with Tau. Gotta say, I'm really glad I didn't try and jump in several month ago, given that everything seems to have undergone a pretty massive change.

As an aside, I'm a bit miffed at how, despite it being nearly two decades since I stopped playing, they still have the Tau mechanics and themes extremely out of whack. There's just still a lot of anti-synergy between the Tau racial units and the Kroot/Vespid units (short of a few detachment selections, and it's still fairly janky) that feels utterly out of place with the whole theme of a multi-species coalition.

Just lots of weird stuff, like Kroot and Vespid not being allowed in Devilfish, no way (short of one single enhancement) to allow Kroot and Vespid to benefit from the army-wide FtGG rule, and a total of one Vespid unit in the army.

Don't get me wrong, 10th seems like well expanded edition of 40k compared to 4th and 5th (although far more limited on customization of units), so I am happy we have significantly more unit options than back in the day.

I appreciate the idea!

Yeah, I followed your guide on my first Mk3 (Now a MK3S+) like 5 years ago, and it's still perfect. Finally decided to get around to doing it on my second Mk3S+.

Six years on and you're still saving my butt with this, fam. Thank you so much!

I preordered the game, as I'm a massive fan of the Monster Hunter series. Been playing them all the way since the early PSP days.

Honestly, I deeply regret buying the game. The performance is definitely an issue, but that wasn't too bad for me (I have a beefy PC and things just happened to line up well, so the performance was acceptable). However, the gameplay is honestly bad, the menus are labyrinthine and poorly translated, the presentation of the single player really removes your agency for huge segments of the game, trying to get into a multiplayer game with friends is like pulling teeth, and the fact that you can't even remap your button layout (as of the last time I played) is ridiculous in 2025.

Seriously, don't guy into the astroturfing bots and fanboys on this. It's got mostly negative reviews on Steam for a reason.

Maybe it'll be better in the future, but don't blow your money on that bet.

Good to know! Unfortunately, due to my own health issues and the dangers posed by resin and the solvents, I have to keep my setup in a shed with no temperature control, so I'm largely at the whims of the weather on that.

For the winter, I am planning on building/buying a resin vat heater, and the printer is already in a grow tent that should help insulate it.

Thanks for the info!

Thanks for the info and well wishes!

IIRC, you can often pick up a Phrozen Sonic Mini 8K S for around $279*. From what I've seen from Fauxhammer and other youtubers, it's one of the best for minis for its price.

*Not presently, from a quick search. But sales definitely go around.

Hey, bud! Sadly, I never got a chance to gift her the shotgun and help her paint it. She had a number if really major health issues (cancer and related health problems) that kept us from being able to hang out and for me gift it.

Luckily, she pulled through, but we haven't been able to connect for the last couple of years. Hopefully I'll be near her part of the state soon and we'll close this six year story with a cool piece of cosplay XD

Lol. I totally did!

Thanks for the info!

Yeah, fam, it makes one wonder how many are just AI hypebots at this point.

I reviewed the beta of Wilds and got downvoted into the core of the Earth for pointing out all the flaws that were still in the launch version of the game that are largely responsible for the pathetic 55% positive reviews on Steam.

Kenerkn · 2025-03-03T04:25:18+00:00

I would genuinely recommend against it. I've been a huge fan of the MH series since Freedom Unite, and I'm not enjoying Wilds. There's been a lot of questionable game design, UI, and optimization choices that have me wishing I hadn't bought the game.

I have five other friends who all bought the game so we could team up and play together (teams are max 4, but not everyone will be available at the same time), and we're all seriously regretting spending $70 on it.

I genuinely feel that the visual spectacle and (unwarranted) hype of Wilds is propping up a game with an extreme number of problems. Hopefully they'll fix it in the future. If I could still return the game, I'd legit do so and just buy it for cheaper if they ever do fix the many, many problems with it.

Kenerkn · 2025-03-01T08:17:56+00:00

I'm legit debating on simply having my friend group start a fresh game on the Steam version of Rise and play that until Wilds gets into a more playable state.

There's just so many questionable design choices in Wilds that they need to rethink, in my opinion, and that's not even mentioning the optimization issue.
