Bought some new WC parts recently, had fun installing them last night and this morning "The before" NAKED Its a dirty job, but someone has to do it! Loud stock fan! Stock rear exhaust Squeeky clean block - if a bit blurred Cleaned the inside of it too! Rebuilt and...

Over the weekend I swapped my Noctua + some cash for a WC kit and installed it Saturday evening in my new case (600t white). This was my 1st time watercooling and i was a bit nervous before hand as i had worries of it all going pete tong - however when i made a start on it, my confidence grew...

So im looking to buy a new monitor next week as an upgrade from my LG E2240S 22" LED Monitor. The monitor I have is a fantastic all rounder and ive never had any problems with it, however I would like something a little larger and preferably with a higher res if possible but must be LED...

I have some massive changes to both my main PC and folding PC over the next week or so which is very exciting for me. I had an 1100t in my main PC for a few months but the old Asus motherboard I was using (M4A77TD Pro) couldnt keep up with my overclocking and as a result I couldnt get it past...

Happy birthday matey! I hope your day goes well and you save enough energy for the weekend you have planned Heres to a prosperous future buddy:

Im testing overclocks again on my CPU (1100t) and I set the voltages manually to about 1.52 (rounded off) but during stress tests the voltages seem to jump from 1.47 to 1.64 and back again. Ive double checked and cool 'n' quiet is off so there is no speed changes - Is this just a misread or...

Ive managed to convince a few mates to start folding after some lengthy explanations so we should see a few new members drop into the leaderboards over the next few days or so every contribution helps no matter how big or small

Had some decent upgrades recently so thought id show it off a bit - almost to the point where im completely happy with it, just need a better CPU & Mobo (waiting for BD before i make a choice) and some quieter HDD's and its done for a year or so The pics are in different lighting conditions as...
