Hi all, Within the last couple years I've had a Corsair AX850 and AX860i both fail on me, the first's 5V rail failing, the second deciding to crackle and then have a very tame explosion which nevertheless prevented any further boot ups;. I've had my wiring checked out and it seems ok, though...

Hi there, As you might have seen in the build advice thread, I've been sorting out a PC for myself to last another couple years. I kind of want the golden triangle of performance, quiet noise and efficiency when it comes to space. The specs: I've still got my monitor (ASUS VG236HE), my...

Hi guys, planning to make a new build soon, will be emphasising quietness and will be going for air cooling again. I was just wondering what in your opinion is the best combination of case and fans for a quiet setup? I'd have an ATX motherboard, 780Ti, 2 5.25" front bays (fan controller +...

Hi there, Been a couple years since I was posting regularly on these forums, hope you are all doing OK. I first joined this forum when building my first PC: So it's been about 30 months/2.5 years that I've had that PC now, everything is running great. However it's moving downstairs to the...

Hi, sorry I haven't been on the forums for a very long time, but, I'm having an issue with my PC, where it takes a long time for the motherboard standby light to light up after turning on the PC from the plug. This can take from 1minute to sometimes an hour. Once the PC is on, there are no...

Moved into uni a couple weeks back, it's been quite socially hectic so I've not had as much time as I used to, but here is my Uni room/setup. I must get a sound card and a 2.1 System hehehe My flatmates might not be too happy though You might notice a USB Creative X-Fi 5.1 SoundBlaster, but I...

So I was wearing my Klipsch S4's while shopping in bham. Had to carry a crate back and I lost one of the earpieces. Ordered some new ones, but the cabling is a bit dodgy, so I decided to go for some new headphones. The ones I settled on were the Shure SE215's, got them off Amazon for £70. From...

So I have an MSi GTX 580 Twin Frozr II/OC, clocks 800core/2048mem (I've not been using my overclocked settings recently). Now I was playing Deus Ex HR today (great game btw), and I felt the room was quite hot. Realised my case fans were at 50%, so turned them up, and then alt-tabbed out of the...

For anyone with this SSD, like myself : Crucial boosts M4 SSD speed Will TTL do an update on his review maybe? I'll update you guys when I do the update tonight on the improvements. Firmware here Thoughts? I'm personally pretty happy with my SSD anyway, and if I'm going to get even better...

So I have about a month before Uni and I should have a fair amount of time. I want to make a to-do, or rather to-play list of PC games. Its probably going to be shooters, but the basic requirements are a good storyline, so no CoD stuff. Not looking for strategy really, just games I can be...

Dunno if there is another thread on this... What do you guys think about the riots? How do you reckon they should sort the thick chavs out? I think they should smoke grenade them, then hit them with water cannons. Something that will injure these guys, so at least they aren't walking around...

A fair few expected this, but for the few hopefuls, this is bad news nVidia confirms no new GPUs this year Thoughts? I don't really thinks it makes too much difference anyway, Crysis 2 and Total War is about as demanding as they get
