So I've finally started my new build, although it isn't as high spec as I was hoping to have done but it will do the job fine It will consist of: Gigabyte G1.Sniper 3 Intel Core i5 3570K 16GB Corsair Vengeance RAM 2 x 120GB Corsair Force 3 SSDs (RAID 0) Western Digital Caviar 640GB (back...

I'm doing a new build as well my current rig is well out of date....I was originally straight out going for a Z77 i7 3770K build on the G1.Sniper 3 but now I found I can go with an X79 i7 3930K build on the Asus Sabertooth for about £120 more, would the extra money be worth the upgrade if the...

I've never used a RAID Array before and I wanted to know about setting up RAID on the 2 SSD's and then using maybe a HDD as a backup of everything.... I watched TTL's guide of setting up RAID but wasn't entirely sure about what the best RAID array is, as it was only a basic one?

Ive seen TTL videos and stuff using 7/16" tubing + 1/2" barbs and was always thinking just to go with that as it worked well. But i also quite like the look of compression fittings, and heard a few people say that they are a little safer for first time watercoolers. So i had a look on...

Ive been looking at pumps and watercooling components for so long without buying ive lost myself in choices. Ive narrowed it down to the Laing DDC1+ Ultraand the Alphacool VPP655. I wanted the pump to be able to feed 2 360mm rads, a CPU block and then 1/2 GPU blocks so would these pumps be...

I know that a lot of these get put up but i dont really know what to look for in an SSD. You can read the information that the manufacturuers give you but that is not always correct. Im after a 60GB SSD; just for Windows, steam and a few things i use often, and wanted to know what people...

i hoping to get this kit to put into/on my NZXT M59 for my first dip into watercooling.... CPU block: EK Supreme HF Nickel/Plexi (so far but yet to find one made with the new plating technique) for bulldozer/Ivy bridge depending on performance GPU block: will be added later as i will be wcing...

Ive made a thread about a watercooled rig in an Xigmatek Elysium...but having a look around i found that for about £120/140 more i can get a Silverstone TJ07 with a modded top panel ready for a 360 rad plus have a window cut and i think the case has also been powdercoated black on the inside (if...

After watching the review on the TTl channel of the Elysium i really wanted to do a loop in it, it would give me a lot of room for a first loop and give plenty of room for upgrades later down the line. I was originally planning on getting an XSPC kit for a first go at watercooling but i wanted...

Im in the need for some new games and i have played FEAR so i am going to get FEAR 2, its only like £7, and was just wondering what other people would recommend for a new horror first person shooter....? EDIT: before anyone says left for dead or anything they are too easy and not scary/jumpy in...

ive had this game for a while, i got it free with Metro 2033 coz i got the limited edition pack, but i dont have a activation code for it which is REALLY weird :/ just wondered if anyone knows who i would have to contact or the best way to get a new code? coz i cant even play it without...

The screen in the title i am very interested in as the one thing which bugs me the most about the look of having 3 screens in surround or eyefinity is having the screen frames....altho it doesnt affect the amount of game u see it just adds to space needed and the Radius320 just looks a lot nicer...

ive been reading through a few threads and seen that people have recommended going for the RX series of kits rather than the RS... i know that the RS rads are like half the size as RX rads, but for a first go at watercooling is recommended to go for the cheaper kits incase something goes...

i was looking around and wanted to get a Colorful iGame GTX 460 but only found it in the UK at: http://www.ditaqcomputer.com/index.php?XTCsid=l0b6pr2v1e555tvrej4d3pk163 and just wanted to know if anyone had ever used this site to buy something before and whether they are reliable?
