    Proof that my phone is spying on me

    The other day, I'm in my mates car and he's having a discussion with his uncle about a conversation he had with a gardener recently. It was a bluetooth call so I'm just sitting there all quiet. Anyway, they were talking about Japanese Knotweed and how you have to be very careful when removing it...

    Blocked figures

    When did oc3d start blocking figures like gpu mem speeds or cpu temps ? I've noticed it a few times recently, for example, seeing 7*** instead of 7500 (MHz) or ** instead of 5C. I've just realized that these numbers will probably be blocked too !

    Reset cable a bit short

    Anyone else got a gaming 6 in a 750d ? I recently installed one and found the reset cable to be roughly 10mm too short. It reaches the pins on the board but only at full stretch and if I'm honest, I think it's bending the pins. I've had a couple of random issues with windows not restarting...

    More ebay scammers or just coincidence

    Anyone else noticed the recent abundance of ebay users with zero feedback selling high end graphics cards with little or no personal input in the ad ? They all seem to be portuguese too. Looks like a scam to me but why Portugal ...

    AM2 Mounting Kit

    Hey guys, I'm in the process of mounting a HSF to my dad's PC. It's an AM2 socket and I was hoping someone has a spare/unused mounting kit for a Coolink Silentator. I originally bought this for an old 775 system but now I want to transfer it over to his without having to fork out for the entire...

    9800gt x2

    Just got new ROG Striker 2 NSE, was considering getting a couple of 9800GT X2's to compliment my (future) 26 " monitor. Anyone got a better idea ? Wouldn't mind just getting a 295 without going SLI. Enlighten me !

    Help !

    Pretty simple thread. I knew a girl in 2005 called Christina, she was Romanian from Liverpool and living in Glasgow, Cooperage Place to be exact. She was studying to be a Nurse... I think. Bottom line, I've tried every line of enquiry with no leads, I need help. Cheers -sprento

    Wireless tip/ISP rant

    Whilst passing hours on YouTube the other day, I came across this and thought that I'd share it with you guys as it has done wonders for me (see before and after pics) With that in mind I then thought I'd go here and here to test my connection. Unfortunately I didn't get the chance to test the...

    Ready to introduce N95 to bedroom wall !

    For some reason, every time I connect my N95 to pc via usb, the phone restarts a couple of times then turns off completely. I've tried a hard reset and returning all settings to factory mode and got nowhere. Now, the only way to put files on it is by removing the micro sd card and putting it in...
