Hey guys, I recently bought the Asus HD7970 Matrix Platinum. Now im away at the moment so i dont have the numbers with me but I noticed my results when testing with Unigine, cinebench, 3dmark etc were noticably lower than all of the online scores i could find. Now all of those are done with...

I would like to start this thread with a statement.....I LOVE THIS CASE The problems I have had with the Storm Trooper have been with the integrated led/fan controller, which really, if you look at the design is the main or one of the main features. Which is why I was so gutted when it stopped...

WOW is all i can say about this product i have just seen, its the Swiftech Komodo full cover waterblock. Ive never been happy with the idea of exposed components on a graphics card as i take mine out to clean and access other things so often, and most of the waterblocks on the market...

Just started my Folding@Home client for the first time, i'm just using my HD6950 at the moment in my spare time when im not on my rig. I haven't really read any tutorials yet so i'm sure i'm probably doing something wrong but it seems to be working! Right at this moment in time it is showing...

Ive had a bit of an obsession for thermal paste for a few weeks now it all started when i got my Noctua NHD14. Originally when i got the noctua i had a cheap HD6670 gpu installed, but seeing as the noctua had some TIM which came with it i thought "its gotta be better than the stock TIM on...

I need help identifying a component on my motherboard as I had a little accident today. I was trying some different fan configurations and made an extension cable for one of my fan's, something I have done before and I am a proficient solderer so was confident nothing would go wrong. It was...

Hello peeps. I have came home following my exam's today and as my new PSU arrived yesterday I was doing some cable management as you do. When all was back together my house mate came in and saw everything for the first time. So I went to show him the Storm Trooper's built in fan controller...

Today i had the biggest shock. I was running prime95 as im trying different thermal pastes, everything seemed fine for 20 minutes when i heard a pop, and could see small flashes of light from behind my rig. I was kinda shocked into not doing anything for about 10 seconds before i jumped...

This is something thats been on my mind for a while but i can see it being difficult to implement so never end up doing anything about it. The problem: I have space for 2 x 120mm fans on my door which inevitably when fitted are going to mean every time i want to remove the door i will have...

Hey peep's This is the very first rig I have ever build, and I must say I am becoming a little obsessed this is so much fun its also becoming apparent how expensive this can be lol. A little back story: I have a main laptop and a little netbook and before I started Uni they were more than...

Hello This is my first proper post,, and my problem is i have just finished my very first build after running into a few problems only someone on there first build could run into. e.g. buying a cheap PSU with only one PCIe connector and ONE sata connector (suppose i should not have expected...
