so since they waited until After May 15 to confirm the cashback, does that mean Dell bought itself 6 months (minus 7 days) until we actually can get the cash out?

on top of that i also did a referall for an extra $40 back, so yay. I don't know if this was a pricing mistake or not, but if it was I'm glad everyone came through.
I came from a [email protected] with a 290x lol. I was way past due for an upgrade.

Oh wow, apparently my computer initiated a support ticket without my even knowing about it. Dell support already emailed me about it with suggestions. They even know about the drive swap!! Adding in a picture. The link to the BIOS they are providing 2.7.0 (a little newer than what we have now) is https://dl.dell.com/FOLDER1148434..

I was noticing some weird issues where my monitor would not wake up after a reboot. I also noticed some weird cutting out of the display once in a while that I didn't see when I first got the system. For me, I narrowed it down to the BIOS version. My system did not like being on 2.7 so I downgraded the BIOS back to 2.6 and she is happy again. Reboots are fixed.

At least you're ok for now!! I'm driving 3 screens (one 4k, two 2k) on Displayport and haven't seen any visual issues to date.
