So an Open Reach engineer who seemed quite passionate about his job came round and sorted it all out, I told him of the previous person and he said he likely couldn't be bothered so came up with excuses.
Turns out the building was already wired up and I just needed a wire from my place down to the buildings utility closet that houses all the fiber stuff.

In gaming you should notice a difference just because you're latency is 6x better.

So I'm increadably happy as I had a most unexpected day yesterday, the previous evening I was playing some Star Citizen with a couple of mates and they were oohing and ahing over their new OLED monitors and one of them said "Don't you have one?"and i said nope and he said why not and I said I can't afford one, so anyway the mate who asked that just upgraded his 27"LG Ultragear to an MSI 32"4K OLED, so yesterday when I got up there was a message to call into his shop, and I thought he must need some help with something, I get in there and we're chatting a bit then he vanishes out the back and comes back with his LG and puts in on the counter and I thought he was going to demo it for me or something and then he completely floors me by saying it's mine, I geniunely couldn't belive my ears as he just gave me an LG OLED! It's 27"2560x1440 240Hz and stunning, I played Star Citizen on it last night and was blown away, I thought my VA panel was good this thing just eats it alive, yeah can't belive my luck and I'm pinching myself this morning at it's real I now own an OLED.

I'd be careful putting your IP in to the wild on screenshots, last thing you want is some wannabe deciding to just attack you.

Had a bit of a bugger with the PC yesterday.
I bought some new parts for it. Namely three new intake fans, one rear fan, and a GPU holder thing (the Asus one was on sale).
Fitted it all* and one of the fans was not spinning. Spent three hours looking for an unplugged fan, only to find I had cut through two of the wires on one when removing cable ties. Managed to solder it in situ, as changing it would have meant removing the entire roof. I had already spent several hours taking the entire front off. I moved the GPU rad to the side inside (draws air through the side panel and a filter) instead of having it in the front.
* I had an issue day one. I fitted three intakes to the front (the 140s that came with the case) and a 360 rad to the opposing side of said intake. Well one of the fans was hitting the fan frame (it is flimsy, very disappointing in a case costing so much) so I had to open the side glass panel to stop it scraping. Meaning it was filling with dust fast.
All issues now rectified.
