    Noblechairs - issue with levers

    Hey all, Firstly, this isn't a complaint thread. I have two different Noble models, and very happy with them in general. Overall I highly recommend them to anyone. I have just one small issue. The plastic handles for the levers on either side that control height adjustment and tilt.... I...

    XBOX ONE S ..screen goes blank

    Its also the same Xbox (I presume), but you have an issue. Try a new HDMI, its the cheapest/easiest way to troubleshoot the issue.

    FlorPad - anyone with experience?

    Got any examples in mind? I need a floor mat for my new office, but your traditional plastic ones aren't much cheaper and certainly very boring. So was pleased to see alternative products available. The manufacturers website for FlorPad have some models not on OcUK yet, which are far less in...

    FlorPad - anyone with experience?

    As seen on the OcUK site - https://www.overclockers.co.uk/gaming/gaming-chairs/accessories/floor-mats Some of the designs are clearly aimed at youngsters, no problem but not for me, but there are one or two more low-profile designs. I'm wondering if anyone in the forum has experience with...

    Gameboy / Gameboy Advance Suggestions

    The 3 Castlevania games are considered to be some of the best in the series, but likely to fetch a high price nowadays. Final Fight is an excellent version, Doom ranks very highly. Lots of great RPGs if that is your thing. Advance Wars is a classic.

    Any memories of the old shops we used to visit?

    In my youth it was all about two places; - Console Concepts (Newcastle under Lyme) for Import console goodness; - OcUK for all my PC Hardware needs. Having both of these on my doorstep as a kid was a curse and a blessing :eek: I've recently done a couple of shows for the Retro Gaming...

    Awesome! Glad you're a listener. I'm not as active on these forums as I used to be, as I'm not currently with a gaming rig in my collection (not a new one anyways). But that'll likely change in the coming months. I've been an OcUK customer since before they were OcUK, always good to have to a...

    Retro console and games thread

    Hope you don't mind me sharing this, but I think it will be relevant to lots of group members. The latest RGDS Podcast is now out, where I interview Colin Dimond, one of the co-founders of Console Concepts. This was one of the most important UK based importers of video-game consoles and games in...

    First build in nearly 10 years, need a 1440p gaming rig

    Hi folks, Haven't built a PC in about 8/9 years, which was a Q6600 rig and served me very well, however I strayed into Mac territory for general computing and returned to consoles for gaming. However I'm now ready to ditch that trend and come back to the fold. I have a 1440p monitor so I'm...

    *** The Official FIFA 17 Thread ***
