Looks interesting I will look for one of those if canned air does not do the job as I do have some lying around. Peter

I like that idea jeckulz! Although I think I will try out some canned air to be on the safe side. Thanks for the quick replies, Peter

Hello all, My new PC is starting to get very dusty and my usual procedure, with my 10 year old PC, was to take the computer outside and blow the dust away with a leaf blower :D Having thought about it this seems a bad idea considering that my new PC was expensive. Is this a bad idea or should...

I have overclocked to 4.4gHz and when under full load for around 15mins my temps only hit 42 degrees :) Thanks for the help, Peter

Thanks for all the replies I think I will use the feature for a while until I have more time spare. Another question, is star swarm a suitable test to use to check stability of an overclock? It can be found on Steam for free and it was used by Linus Tech Tips. Peter

Hello, I built my PC back in September and I have only just got round to overclocking. I went poking through the bios of my motherboard and found a feature called "CPU Level Up" and it has three settings, 4.2, 4.4, and 4.6 gHz. Does this adjust the Settings to get the CPU upto this clock...

The Corsair AF fans are nice and they have a range of quite ones with decent airflow.

Thanks for the reply, Peter

Hello, I am going to build a new PC in the near future and I am not sure what the real world difference that Windows 8.1 pro has over Windows 8.1 home edition. We recently made a high end gaming PC and used pro but would benefit from saving some cash on this extra machine providing there are...

What 120gb SSD do you reccomend?

I would like 16gb to keep this PC going for a long time when games will start to demand more RAM.

Thanks again, Peter

This looks like a great build. How large an SSD do you reccomend to fit on the OS and a few games? I will try out windows 8.1 to see if I like it and then hopefully start my build some time near christmas :) Thanks for your time, Peter

Thanks for the advice, I will give it a go on my friend's PC to see if I like it. I would like to have 16gb of RAM as this PC will have to last me awhile. Will I have to increase my budget to afford this and an os?

Thanks for the link I will give it a go, do you reccomend windows 8?

Thank you for the quick reply but I do need to also buy Windows which is around £100 so pushing for a 780 would be too much for me.

Hello, I would like to build a £800-£900 gaming PC and I need some help with choosing components as I have not built a PC for about 10 years. I do need to include Windows 8 into the budget and I would like a nVidia graphics card as shadow play looks interesting. I do not need a keyboard or...

Remap done today on our 1998 GTi 1.8T at R-Tech. Super service and very interesting too. Well worth £250 for custom map including rolling road before and after. On the way home, very noticeable regarding extra torque. My son who was driving put his foot down in 3rd gear and the front wheels...

I booked our GTi 1.8T in for a remap at R-Tech tomorrow afternoon and bought new rear wheel cylinders and shoes for our old Clio
