    Friend built and shipped us a PC to replace my wife’s dying laptop, once it hit the border the customs office fistfucked it somehow and we’ve been trying for days to clean it up, fix it, and figure out what exactly they broke so we can file a claim.

    like…this fucking heatsink is supposed to sit…well exactly how you think a heatsink fits, but when it arrived and you took the side of the case off you could see it was at an angle. It was still securely screwed in place, the fucking thick ass steel pipes were fucking bent. That doesn’t happen in shipping, that doesn’t happen unless you open the case and wrench the fucking thing to hell.

    Inside of the glass panel was scratched, the thing will not POST which could be the CPU (I bought a second one to test as well), then noticed the paste in the bracket 🤦‍♂️ and buddy 100% did the thermal paste correctly as he’s not an idiot so that’s on the customs fuckers. 3 of its 8 fans aren’t working (but that’s at least minor), just a big clusterfuck so I’ve been scrubbing this cunt with a saw’d down toothbrush and ISO for the last 3 days trying to get the paste out with a bad back and possible torn muscle letting me bend down for no more than 2 mins at a time and several days of horrid sleep.

    So I’ll find out hopefully in the morning when I finish if its the CPU, or if the motherboard is also fucked and hopefully find a way to locate said customs office agent and fistfuck their arsehole the same way they did the PC while on my way to a repair shop 🙃

    Edit: Also super glad he swapped cases and thermals before sending the PC to us cause it was gonna be watercooled 🤣 I could only imagine the mess…

        Update: The problem is still unknown.

        it was not, however, the thermal paste in the socket 🤦‍♂️ nor the CPU as the brand new one is also red-lighting. Repair shop time, damnit lol.
