Hi guys, I have an automatic fan controller with heat probes. Say I want to control all the case fans off the graphics card temp. Could I splice the temp prob wire across to the other case fans? What do you reckon guys? Cheers

Hi guys, Is the NZXT Sentry 2 discontinued? It seems more and more shops are out of stock. Any alternative, I need a 1 (ideally) or 2 bay automatic fan controller under 40 quid. Cheers, Laurence

Hi guys, With my Gigabyte P67A-USD3P-B3 board when I use the DES 2.0 software and come back from sleep the computer BSODs. It has also even crashed viewing videos on youtube once and once again playing a game. I am using windows 7. Even though it does this my PC is fully stable on Prime 95...

Hi guys, How well do the automatic fan controllers work? Do they adjust to the temperatures ok? I'm thinking of using the graphics card and cpu exhaust heat to control the fans. Are the sensors a bitch to locate and mount (and hide wires)? Cheers, Laurence

Hi guys, Whoops, almost said which 1U controller . I'm after a one bay fan controller or a alternative location one. It has to be automatic / semi auto based on temperature. I have 5x fans I wish to control. Please recommend me a good one . Thanks, Laurence

Hi guys, Anyone know where I can purchase orange cold cathodes from in the UK?? Around 12". I understand some "Red" ones can look very orange indeed. Although I have also seen that some look pink, which I am not looking for!! Cheers, Laurence

Hi guys, Well... I said I wouldn't yet but I did . Here is my 2500k 24/7 overclock. I'm sure I could go a lot higher than 4.5GHz but I will give that a go later, for now this is pretty nice . 4501.6 MHz 100 MHz BCLK VCore 1.280v (probably a lot less at idle) Gigabyte DES enabled RAM...

Hi guys, Just thought I would share some pics of my new rig. I am very impressed, mainly by the CPU, heatsink and case! This thing runs so cool but while performing damn fast at the same time. (latest pics I have added) Noctua NF-P14 with custom LED. Soon to get replace neons with...

Hi guys, I've been reading in a few places that the release date for the new Intel Sandy Bridge chips is on the 5th Jan, not the 9th which I see in quite a few places.. Is it just the UK that has to wait this extra time? Cheers, Laurence

Hi guys, Anyone have a Logitech G27 wheel here? I really love the look of it but I'm finding it very hard to justify over 200 quid for a wheel. Is there anything else perhaps without the clutch and shifter to save on cost which is as good? I do love the quality pedals and shifter on the...

Is it just me or does OCZ really suck?? I won a 32GB OCZ Throttle USB drive from here a while ago, I think it retails for about 80 quid, I was really happy that I won it, performance seemed to be pretty damn fast to start with... After about 2 days of using it for a few transfers it had the red...

Who has a Noctua NH-D14 and Ballistix Tracers? Can you see the LED's at all? Guess it also depends on the MB... Thanks, Laurence

Hi guys, Well after quite a few weeks of research think I have found my new rig set-up: Cooler Master HAF X - Love the look of this case and great cooling. Noctua NH-D14 heatsink - Seems like this is great quality and recommended. Core i5-2500K ?? When it comes out on the 5th Socket 1155...

Hi all, Looking for a new PSU for my new rig I'm planning. Sandy Bridge CPU, HAF X case, single graphics card (nothing crazy) and two hard drives. I'm thinking about 750W+ to stay in the middle (meant to be more efficient). 120 quid max to spend. I like the look of the new NZXT PSU's but...
