    *** Show us your bikes! ***

    S1000R i've had since january. Only recently taken her out for a spin. Went out in the nice weather and will definitely be a fair weather bike. Planned on an hour, 5 hours later came home before it got dark, just loved it that much i could have kept going and going. Really looking forward to...

    Looking to dab my toe into watercooling, can I have some advice please

    QC is spot on IMO. Customer service is up there to be honest as well. When ever i've had issues they have had no problems replacing stuff or giving advice. I use Bitspower rotaries and EKWB compression fittings, blocks, radiators. Always been spot on, just as good as other brands i have used...

    Is my setup not the best?

    **** what anyone else says. There are many people that would kill to have a system like that, the way i see a lot of things. Is there is always better but there is also always worse. Be happy with what you have, looks great, nice and tidy and decent spec'd pc too. Who ever made those comments...

    *** How to obtain a bike license ***

    Thank you :). As above really unfortunate but it should at least be a darn sight warmer than it is currently. I was shivering the whole time while doing my mod 2 which didn’t help things all that much lol. Best of luck when you get round to doing it and let us know how you get on! :)

    *** How to obtain a bike license ***

    Thanks :). And yes i definitely feel that way, such a relief its all done now. So much restriction choosing bikes on A2 and now i can pretty much pick anything i fancy. A big relief and really happy i made sure i did it. Bit of a ptake doing it twice CBT-A2 then A2-A but happy its all over now...

    *** How to obtain a bike license ***

    Finally passed my full A mod 2. So happy been so worried as failed it twice in a row both stupid faults. The relief at the minute is just insane. Will link pass certificate later. Made me realise both how easy and hard it can be especially when you’re only riding the trainers bike for an hour...

    What resolution scale simulates 4k at 1440p?

    Will improve things yes, it is definitely something worth doing if you have spare power. I wouldn’t recommend doing it otherwise unless you really want the extra image quality as you still have the limitations of the native resolution even all be it upscaled, it still won’t look as good as say a...

    I Was Hacked.

    Its locked away safely and means literally nothing to anyone but me :).

    I Was Hacked.

    Agreed, I’ve been caught out before and nearly lost several very important accounts. One reason all of my passwords are now completely different and random which are changed regularly. Stored with a master password which is handwritten and 2FA. Haven’t had any issues since then.

    Nvidia recognises 10gb isn't enough - RTX3080 gets a VRAM upgrade

    I can see what you mean definitely having read more into it. Shame on the 3080 aspect of it. Kind of happy I still have my trusty 2080Ti although it likely wouldn’t like running it at 4k. Although giving you PS2 textures screams poor game design to me. And IMO Ubisoft haven’t made anything well...

    Nvidia recognises 10gb isn't enough - RTX3080 gets a VRAM upgrade

    Im guessing said 3080 doesnt have enough to support the texture pack? Either way shoddy design work by ubisoft as usual lol looking at the state of those dashboard textures and 30fps cutscenes.

    Nvidia recognises 10gb isn't enough - RTX3080 gets a VRAM upgrade

    That will very likely be on a card with more than 10GB though? So it will use more. I've yet to see a card run out of vram from experience (unless were talking about the botched 970). Have seen some gameplay of the 3080 playing FC6 at 4k maxed settings just fine. 8k perhaps? Surely then were...

    Would you return an Auros 3080Ti for this amount of coil whine?

    They are all pretty much the same from experience. Anyone who says "i dont have coil while" is simply lying. Some are worse/better than others but you will never be free from it especially if you have a quiet system. Now 1000's of frame's screaming then no not normal. The coil whine/buzz you...

    CPU Overheat problem

    Remove small penny/cell 2032 battery on the board for a few minutes and then refit is easiest way. Being a 9600k, board could be auto-overclocking from stock. So i'd also double check everything is correct as if it is auto OCing chances are that cooler won't handle it very well.

    CPU Overheat problem

    Board could also be appling way to much voltage at stock. I'd reset the cmos and let us know what the Core voltage is as read in the bios. How much paste are you applying? is it spreading out fine and the cooler itself making good contact with even pressure? What are the temps you are seeing...

    How much coil whine is too much coil whine?

    Pretty common, why my pc has been several feet away for the past 3-4years. If its whining at desktop i'd probably replace it. But otherwise not much you can do. Another replacement card will have the same or worse. Went through like 10 2080Ti's at one point all the same. More so noticeable...

    *** How to obtain a bike license ***

    Good luck! I’ve finally started doing my A2-Full A. So far passed the mod 1 first time with another guy (also passed first time). Doddle on light xj6 they gave me. but unfortunately failed mod 2 due to rookie mistake and a bit of a panic as a result. My fault so took it on the chin. Quite...

    EVGA 1080 Ti FTW3 capacitor dilemma...

    Shouldn’t be too difficult with a hot air gun and soldering iron. They are only soldered either side so it should be easy enough. Area just needs preheating which will make it much easier. Not anyone local who can have a look at it?

    ***The Official 5900X \5950X owners thread***

    Thanks for the idea but i pretty much gave up and stuck my old 10900k back in. Repasted a few times and it didnt make much difference paste was spread to each corner of the IHS when removing the cooler and cooler was mounted dead flat. Tried a few methods including spreading manually over the...
