Christmas Returns 2023
I read a post earlier that if purchasing something after Nov. 3rd 2022 you could return it anywhere before Jan. 15th 2022. Will there be a similar grace period for returns in 2023? If so what are the dates for this return period? If the information is needed I plan to purchase a CPU+MOBO+RAM combo deal.

New PowerSpec G471 Cannot Drive Samsung G9 in 240Hz
I bought the G471 and G9 at the end of July and it was running fine for awhile - even gamed in super ultra-wide at 240Hz with all the settings maxed out- AMAZING!

P1S AMS and Inlaid filament
Any experience using Inlaid filament or other generic with the AMS system. Many are failing on rack 3 and I think it may be due to the actual roll that the filament is using. Bambu rolls seem to be flawless, but I'd like to use some other generic brands without having to re spool them onto an empty Bambu roll.

My monitor is acting strange. Can someone help me figure out what might be causing it?
I don't have a picture or screenshot of it because I don't think to do that when I spot this happening, but I'll do my best to describe it.
