    OCUK Shop

    am I right in saying, the red bull event they did was right around the end of the shop's lifespan? I remember me and a friend having a slice of caprino's pizza there thinking surely this covid thing wont hit our shores, the news is just scaremongering :(

    Your current GPU buying strategy

    i used to be really into hardware, but now i really haven't thought about changing gpu in a long time. gaming on final fantasy 14, using a 3070 at 4k, not max settings but it's averaging over 100fps. The new ones just don't represent a good enough value for the performance boost, it would always...

    weird BSOD

    Hi I've had an asus rog strix 3070 running brilliantly since june '21, not had a problem at all. I even tested an overclock when I first had it that was 3Dmark stable but crashed some games, so its been running stock since then as I didn't feel qualified to mess with it. This morning started up...

    It's too hot :(

    That would be a unique feeling! I wouldn't go in there alone in case the shock might cause a problem

    petrol stations price discussion (was ‘chaos’)

    it merits talking about for sure. Looking on the news, kwasi kwarteng is deflecting all the heat to the forecourts for over charging, whereas in reality the taxes on taxes have accumulated, and it's only taken a small bump in wholesale prices to have a massive knock on effect

    petrol stations price discussion (was ‘chaos’)

    Went past a station in ambleside that was 189.9 for unleaded. Highest ive seen on uk mainland personally, not including mull which was a silly £2.60 last year

    Lian Li Galahad AIO Head Wobble

    I used to have the same, it didn't cause any issues, it's just the outer part of the pump assembly. The heatsink should be attached properly since the brackets are on

    5800x started to overheat

    Personal experience, I tried an NZXT aio and the software made it completely unusable, so I tried a lian li galahad 360mm and 10 months later the pump failed. I've put a noctua NHD15s in now which I feel just has less points of faliure and performs really well. I still like the look of builds...

    Pay rise 2022

    Voted under 2% but looks like I'll be changing jobs anyway. Covid took half the work when the customers didn't put orders in again and lots got made redundant, company is losing money hand over fist so it can't offer any more

    High idle temps

    The plot thickens, gaming on final fantasy tonight i start hearing a faint 'awooga' noise from inside the pc like something vibrating, now i'm a bit worried the pump is running dry somehow. Tilting the PC back reduces it for a few seconds but it comes back. Lian li support is not there till the...

    High idle temps

    Memory is running at 3600mhz on the xmp setting with 1800 IF clock. TBH I can't remember why I ended up with such a low voltage, I'd have to search back through my posts as I think it was suggested to me and when it worked with the lower clock speed i've ran it like that since. Forza horizon 4...

    High idle temps

    A good point wookiee as this chip has been a source of headache for a long time with stability. a while ago i had all kinds of problems with ram stability to the point of RMA'ing kits failing on memtest, only to find the only way of getting them stable was to lower the core base clock by 50mhz...

    High idle temps

    It only goes mad when I start up forza. Playing final fantasy 14 it never really stresses it enough to get going. And even without booting it idles over 60 degrees on the bios Edit - I could try putting pc on its side and back up again, that's the only other thing I did when re pasting which...

    OK so i'm back to gaming at 86 degrees o_0 fans going mad constantly edit- and 5 minutes later a forced restart

    High idle temps

    I think in that instance with the pipes at the bottom air would be trapped at the pump when switched off, as the pipes would go back up to it. I didn't think there was any downside to having the pipes at the top of the radiator to be honest, i think gamersnexus did a video with a see through top...

    High idle temps

    Hi Im having an issue with a ryzen 3600x cooled by a lian li 360mm water cooler. It used to run fine and has done for about 10 months with idle temps of low 30s, now the idle temps are around 60 degrees. When gaming it tops 80 degrees. On the bios I've got the cooler itself set up as a water...

    Service charges a little excessive?!

    I thought that when I had my fn2 type r, until they put the wrong engine oil in and the services didn't change the air filter
