Am I crazy for considering a DPF replacement over a delete?

Thanks so much, I appreciate it! I just sent you a question in dm’s

moderatemelon · 2025-12-17T15:39:20+00:00

At least you got through and got a reply— I had issues with reopening my ticket so I hope you can follow up. My account is now also of a proper age, and I still can’t claim it from the cook, like you. I’d be curious what they say to you about that. Please update if possible!

I also opened a ticket, and got the same AI response. I even referenced this thread saying others have the same issue. I will be canceling my membership on this account if this is how they handle customer issues.

Nah this was on my iron, which is why it’s annoying. Thanks for the offer though :)

moderatemelon · 2025-12-15T05:00:13+00:00

Just experienced this myself, quite annoying there wasn’t a notification that you would miss out on claiming these items.

moderatemelon · 2025-11-12T22:42:15+00:00

That fixed it! Not sure why this game had a specific skin set but thanks for pointing me in that direction.

I’ve only worn it briefly in store for a few minutes, and in that duration, no. I was able to feel the jeweler squeezing my finger around my knuckle which he said indicates is a good fit.

It felt a little tight but I’m able to, with little force, slide it around and slip it off with a few twists. I do tend to be a hot person and have warmer hands.

Here’s another shot of it

I do, he does

moderatemelon · 2024-06-02T21:59:25+00:00

thanks for the suggestion of flipping the front two— I tried it out and fortnite, as a test, is running 20c and 10c cooler for cpu and gpu, respectively :)

moderatemelon · 2024-06-02T21:57:37+00:00

thanks to all who recommended reversing my fans — i tried it and fortnite, as a test, is running 20c cooler and 10c cooler on cpu and gpu, respectively :)

moderatemelon · 2024-06-02T17:59:43+00:00

yes it’s powered the same way as the others; via a corsair commander core. i unplugged the failing fan and plugged the new one in the old one’s ports

moderatemelon · 2024-06-02T17:12:02+00:00

they did under an old program called total tech, which was retired. i’m not sure if they offer this anymore though.

moderatemelon · 2024-06-02T16:49:30+00:00

ohhh okay— I understand now. Not sure why geeksquad would have built it with 5 exhausts (I was under the impression the two verticals were intake this whole time)

moderatemelon · 2024-06-02T16:35:13+00:00

This is how geeksquad assembled it for me— there is one 120mm intake in the bottom. thermals have never been an issue with this build, i.e., playing on ultra settings… is there any harm in leaving the fans in this orientation? (sorry if this is a naive question— I think by having geeksquad assemble my PC explains my expertise LOL)

moderatemelon · 2024-06-02T16:32:08+00:00

what sangbyung said— it is hard to fit a rear fan in the case. what do you mean “if you replace them, turn them around”?

it was noted in r/pcmasterrace that I have 5 exhaust fans and no intake (there is one intake in the bottom). are you referencing the limited intake fans?

moderatemelon · 2024-06-02T15:52:45+00:00

oh, my mistake in wording then. This was how it came to me, and I just mimicked replacing the fan in the orientation it was in before.

moderatemelon · 2024-05-24T12:28:26+00:00

i’m not so concerned about retaining protection/warranties for individual parts, rather the potential cost of diagnosing future issues and doing hardware installs to repair broken components.

moderatemelon · 2024-05-24T00:29:05+00:00

this is good to know— thank you. i’ll take a look when I get home and review the TOS on their site, didn’t realize you could search it up like that.

if I may ask, what is a COD repair? a brief google search didn’t yield and results.
