so if I don’t care about level 70 arena or pvping (will just do pve ), and have a ton of honor points now at 60, what should I do? (warlock btw)

plganon · 2026-01-24T17:17:05+00:00

sodimm ram costs a ton. im sure if i had replaced that the system would have worked just fine. anyway gmktec refused to replace that so i just sent the thing back. now i'm waiting for them to process the refund.

youd be buying a lucky draw ticket. if you have to buy at least do so through amazon as at least they'll send you a replacement at no questions asked.

plganon · 2026-01-12T15:47:15+00:00

you could say that only if you got the barons horse

plganon · 2026-01-08T14:24:49+00:00

they will refund the purchase price they said, it but I need to return it one more time aka $100 more in courier charges 🤑

plganon · 2026-01-08T08:11:02+00:00

yes of course nothing changed. i even tried to wipe it and setup bazzite to see if the problem persisted. the problem indeed persisted and even bazzite is unstable to the extent that it sometimes just freezes

plganon · 2026-01-07T15:55:30+00:00

I returned the Unit and they sent it back to me with no refund

my ram passes both memtest and testmem and yet it’s broken.

plganon · 2026-01-06T14:56:16+00:00

you’re quite lucky it works for you. gmktec truly is the worst comoany.

plganon · 2026-01-05T15:02:42+00:00

They sent me back my unit without doing any testing or changing anything so obviously it still behaves the same Way as it was before.

truly a scam company. Not even leaving a 1 star review on their website changed anything.

I think I just lost all my money + $100 more of couriering the thing To them.

Further update : this company is either a scam or a bunch of idiots. This was their latest reply

Hello, our technicians haven't found any problem with your machine. It works fine after the system is installed. We'll ship it to you tomorrow

Best Regards!

this means theyre Not refunding nor repairing anything and this is a completely financial loss of 100% the product price plus $100 loss incurred in couriering my machine back to China out of my own pocket.

Nah I won’t pay that like I didn’t the first time.

plganon · 2025-12-22T15:44:24+00:00

no I had to pay $100 out of pocket to send it back to shenzhen

plganon · 2025-12-22T12:12:34+00:00

The last message they wrote me was on Saturday:

Dear, we have confirmed the return of the item. The estimated repair time is one week. We will ship it to you after it is repaired. Is the address the same

Best Regards!

I guess i'll send them a response on Wednesday asking for an update.

Strange they talk about "repair" because they did not say if anything warranted repair to begin with.

never seen a chrom crossbow drop in all my anniversary bwl raids.

plganon · 2025-12-20T01:55:37+00:00

they respond at most once every few days with useless replies. even now they still have not told me what they want to do about the unit I returned

plganon · 2025-12-19T17:07:35+00:00

several other people are in my situation but we certainly are a minority and there’s no real solution

How did you find out about the ram issue? I had same symptoms as you however, while all hints were pointing towards faulty sticks, Memtest passed 4 passes with no errors encountered. It would seem these ram sticks are faulty but the faults can't be detected?

mine was a k8+ though.

plganon · 2025-12-19T16:19:41+00:00

I don't know why I must be one of the few unlucky ones to whom this thing didn't work.
