    Small or large upgrade?

    Ahh shoot! thanks for the information guys I actually went with the MSI board in the end. I was on going to choose the TUF but I'm not a big fan of Asus due to poor experiences in the past. Also wanted to skip Gigabyte as they seem to be skimping a lot these days. Heard good things about the MSI...

    Small or large upgrade?

    Thanks for your replies. I forgot to add I dont need a PSU. I will be re-using the SuperFlower Leadex I have. I have updated the original post with my original build plan if I went all out.

    Small or large upgrade?

    Hello all, My pc is getting on a bit now the specs are in my signature. I am looking to upgrade to a new PC as mine now struggles with most new titles. I pretty much do a little bit of everything in terms of workload but nothing seriously heavy at the moment. I am really stuck on what to...

    I have used Swiftbolt cables on Amazon before the cables seem very good quality.

    Galaxy buds

    I don't have a pair of Galaxy Buds but i do own a pair of Jabra Elite Active 65t. I was originally going to go for the galaxy buds due to the weight but ended up going for the Jabra's. They have some pretty neat features in-built and has an EQ inside the app along with tracking if they get...

    Replacing Xonar Essence STX

    The card is very neutral I have found. I've noticed I have had to turn up the sound on my speakers when listening but I also use the EQ on SP2500 to give it a bit more warmth and dynamics when listening to music. For my music production it actually performs a lot better as nothing seems to be...

    Replacing Xonar Essence STX

    Sometime's I have noticed it condense inside the case but i have never has any issues till now. The Xonar was in the first slot on the mobo so anything dripping from the top of the case would possibly contact that first. Like i said previously I'm going to give the machine a full service on...

    Replacing Xonar Essence STX

    Nice spot I didn't see that! I think I know what has caused the issue and it is most likely a result of vapor from my ecig. I'm going to give my H100 a once over also as its 6 years old. I am starting to worry about it failing so it may be time to replace.

    Replacing Xonar Essence STX

    Well I like the EVGA Nu Audio, already noticed a difference in the crispness of the sound. The software needs a bit of work and but the latest update added a compressor, surround sound effects and now allows you to mute the headset or speaker which is good. Could still do with a lot of work but...

    Replacing Xonar Essence STX

    Thanks for taking a look EsaT. I was worried about the green on the end of that pin and the square below where it looks like something has came off or corroded. Tbh though I am unsure how long its been that way as I have been putting off cleaning my machine the last couple months. I just got...

    Replacing Xonar Essence STX

    Hi Guys, Here are the images. https://imgur.com/a/3AKDvcx I think there is some damage in the first image but apart from that I cannot see anything obvious. The opamp had the 4 pins on the right side out of the socket (3,4 5,6?) but maybe not fully so they may have still been contacting. If...

    Replacing Xonar Essence STX

    Mine was stuck out at a 45 degree angle and two pins didn't seem to be contacting anything. I plugged it back in but still the sound is extremely quiet barely audible and their is a fair amount of static which was never present before. I cant see any other noticeable damage but when I get...

    Replacing Xonar Essence STX

    Here is a picture of an STX II but its practically the same. https://imgur.com/cYKIsNH I have circled the part that was out of place. I am currently using an old Creative X-Fi Titanium but If i switch the Xonar back in the sound is basically only just audible and you can hear static through...

    Replacing Xonar Essence STX

    Hi Guys, So my Xonar has given up the ghost out of the blue. Turned on the PC this afternoon after logging out last night with everything working. Today there is no sound. I have removed all the drivers, checked windows settings and checked the Uni-Xonar C-Panel. It is showing audio playing on...

    AORUS AD27QD - Black Uniformity?

    Any idea's of some good VA panels? I have a VA TV but I notice the colour shift when looking from a off angle so would prefer something that has a good viewing angles closer to IPS.
