Hello all, I'm building a new rig for a girlfriend and I've been back and forth trying to keep within her budget, with some help from other people. One build is an mATX build consisting of: - i5-8400 - 1070/1070ti (open-cooler) - XFX TS 550W - CM EVO 212 - Fractal Mini R2 case Here's the...

Hello all, my brother just moved to China and didn't bring his old BenQ 120hz monitor. He's looking to buy a new, and since I don't really know what China offers in-store I'm/he is pretty much open to any recommendation. He would like it to be 120hz like his old, but is hoping he could also...

Heya, my brother bought a pair of headphones and along with it a ModMic 5.0. To make up for the terrible onboard microphone jack he bought a USB soundcard: sound blaster live 3 For whatever reason though its making a constant static noise in the microphone. Furthermore, he says if he uses the...

Hello all, I'm helping a girlfriend of mine picking out a new PC. She's been on a laptop for years and simply wants a PC where she can install a game without thinking twice about whether it'll run properly or not. In regards to this I've been given three build suggestions, and I was hoping...

Hi, im on the verge of buying a laptop for my studies (adobe software). I've come across a Lenovo Yoga 500. It has an AMD Quad Core A8-7410 and a Radeon R5 M330. The more expensive model has an i5-5200U but only HD5500 graphics, and I believe I need the dedicated GPU for more heavy tasks in...

Hi, I have a pair of Z-5500, which uses 3x3.5mm. My soundcard however (SB ZXR) only has these: link to picture. I can connect 1 3.5mm, but what about the other 2? Can I use a converter and just use the RCA, and it will be the same? While I do have optical, the sound is generally boring, and I...

Hi, my brothers PC rear jack does not give any sound, no matter which output I use. The manual says the motherboard has "5x OFC audio jacks". My brothers speaker cables look like this, and are connected to this. And just to be on the safe side, here is a picture of the rear outputs. The front...

Hi, once again I seek help picking a laptop. Its for Adobe software only (no gaming). ASUS X550JX (£708): Asus N550JK (On sale from £905 to £755): While the IPS panel speaks to me (especially for Adobe software), I fear the 850M wont be able to handle 4K-resolution well, as opposed to the...

Hi, I built a Skylake PC for my brother few days ago. I had some issues with the ram, as I could not get a signal using both sticks in slot 2/4. Only by using 1 stick did I get a signal. Then I tried moving both to 1/3 and I got a signal. I then moved both back to 2/4 and still had a signal...

Hi, brothers in need of a new gaming rig, and I have 3 builds and wondered which is most worth it. i5-6600k - £1408 (ddr4) i7-4790k - £1417 (ddr3) i7-5820k - £1534 (ddr4) They all 3 have 16GB ram, 850w PSU and an MSI 980ti. For £18 less it'll be a 750w PSU, but I dont know if he would need...

Im about to start studying "AP Graduate in Multimedia Design and Communication". For this I will be working with Photoshop, Illustrator, inDesign and probably other Adobe software. The school recommends a laptop with an i7 and 16GB ram, although I have no idea if that is correct or overkill...

I was wondering if anyone here owned either one and could give their feedback on the battery. It's a tablet for my mom and don't play any games at all. It is between the two mentioned.

Hi, my mom wants a tablet to replace her laptop. Only thing is she needs to be able to print. Right now we have a Deskjet 2544 that can be connected to our wireless connection. Would any tablet be able to print to it as long as it is also connected to our wireless? Specifically with iPads, do...

Hi folks, my brother is in need of a new gamer PC. He only needs the PC (he has monitor etc. himself). It does not need OS, and chassis is preferred to be as quiet as possible (window not a must). He wanna try not spend more than £1350 (plus/minus some). While im not from UK we more or less...

Hello, my cousin just called me up about his keyboard acting up. He says all keys are acting as shortcuts all of a sudden. ALT puts it to sleep, Enter shuts it down, and apparently the Windows-key mutes the sound. Im not there to see it for myself but I was hoping it might sound familiar to...
