Hi all, I have a pair of Crucial 16GB (8GBx2) Ballistix Elite 3600Mhz in my system. Now then, some time ago I bought a second pair to bump up the capacity to 32GB. When I eventually got round to putting them in my system (many months later) the system was crashing randomly. After running a...

Hi All, I'm currently looking for a new monitor and quite fancy the Dell S2417DG. I have been looking at the Asus lines but looking around the forums a few people have had bad experiences and it has put me off a little. I don't really need anything over 24" as my desk space is...

Hi all, I may have a potentially new build coming up and I was thinking of going down the custom loop route for it. Main reason being its something I have always wanted to do but never had the courage to do it :p. Anyway, after visiting Insomnia 61 this year and seeing the various...

Hi all, I've been meaning to put this up all week but due to family commitments and general lack of time I havent had the chance. Anyway as the title suggests I decided to give my system a refresh so this is not a completely new build just one or two things :). The Story...

""MODS IF THIS IS IN THE WRONG SECTION PLEASE MOVE THANKS :)" Hi all, I've been looking at test benches for a while and now that I have decided to try a bit of overclocking (and cant find a case I like) I am going to buy one. Obvously any future builds I take on it will come in handy...

Hi all, I've been looking at investing in a Pentium K G3258. The main purpose of this is to have a go at overclocking as I have very limited experience and would like to experiment more. From the review that Tom did it seems like a great little overclocker and at £50 it's a steal. Ok...

Happy New Year to all @ OC3D. JLR :D

Hi all, I've been looking for a reason to buy a Corsair 780T and I think I'm about to give in :p however this time I fancy doing a Liquidcooling build. As this will be my first time doing this sort of build Im a bit nervous and trying to gather as much advice as I can. I've watched...

Hi everyone, I'm in the process of mounting my dark rock advanced onto a MSI Z77 Big Bang. Now I've lined up the back plate as per the instructions but I'm noticing that the backplate is standing slightly proud on one side due to the pipes on the front of the board (there are...
