    UK support for motherboards?

    I am looking for alternatives to the ASUS Maximus XI Hero with which I had some unsatisfactory support. I have a question regarding the Z390 Aorus Master @GIGA-Man if I could trouble you; what would your opinion be on sticking to the QVL? I ask since my G.Skill F4-4133C17D-16GTZR is not listed...

    UK support for motherboards?

    Does anyone know of any mobo manufacturer that offers UK-based support for its motherboard range? Failing that, do any do European chat or is it email-only?

    Project Blackbird Reborn

    Started the assembly last weekend and soon discovered that the NH-D15 wasn't going to fit in the case with the shelf in place. It was a good job that the penny dropped before I had gone any further than mounting the cooler backplate. I ordered the Be Quiet Dark Rock Pro 4 on a next-day service...

    Project Blackbird Reborn

    That's good to hear, I haven't had the need to use a static pressure fan before. I've ordered the Noctua NF-P14s redux on the basis that there is a bit more to the surround than the Silent Wings and that it might help now that I need to come up with a fixing solution!

    Project Blackbird Reborn

    Background: Former long-time HP employee who had been looking for an HP Blackbird 002 on and off for years (but they just don't come up for sale in the UK very often and, at 70lbs, aren't great shipping candidates!) and who finally got lucky. My plan, when I finally got hold of one of these...

    Power connectors for 7970 Crossfire

    Hello. I have a 1110w PSU which has 2x 6-pin PCI-e connectors, 2x 4-pin molex and 2x SATA connectors free. I'd like to be able to power 2x XFX R7970 cards and I'd appreciate your thoughts on the options. As each 7970 requires 6 and 8-pin power connections, it looks like I have to use the...

    Corsair H100, molex problem now high CPU temps

    I've recently bought a used PC which contains an i7-3820, Gigabyte GA-X79-UD3 mobo and a Corsair H100 cooler. I ran some stress tests for a few hours using Prime95 and Hardware Monitor and all looked good - CPU temps did not rise above 60 degrees. Rewired the cabling yesterday evening to tidy...

    Gaming is the only reason for the extra screens :D

    Multiscreen setup at different resolutions

    Thanks for your reply. I contacted both ATI and NVidia to confirm that I cannot do this. I'll check out SoftTH whilst I save up for some screens! :(

    Multiscreen setup at different resolutions

    Hello. I am looking at setting up a gaming PC and ideally (for cost and space purposes) would like a 3 screen setup that involves two 1600x1200 monitors on the outside of a 1920x1200 monitor. Can somebody confirm for me that neither Eyefinity nor an NVidia SLI setup would allow me to do this at...
