    Advice On A Replacement NAS

    At work we had some really old PC's I came across in the basement that should have gone to recycling years ago. I was curious about TrueNAS so I used one of the boxes with a Core i3 4130 CPU, harvested 2 8gb sticks of DDR3 ram and used a 500GB disk for the install and a 3TB WD Disk for storage...

    AMD Chipset Drivers Not Installing?

    Same here. It won't install the AMD Power plan or PSP driver. Everything else it says OK but not sure if it actually installed anything. I have a 3800X

    *** NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3090 SERIES STOCK SITUATION - NO COMPETITOR DISCUSSION ***

    Yeah I bought my KFA2 3090 SG in December for £1545 and it's running great. It's now retailing for closer to £1,995 so happy chappy. Not going to be too interested in 4080/90 as prices are going to be higher IMHO. This card should last me a few years TBH as not too bothered about ray tracing can...

    I was up in your neck of the woods yesterday at Disley Golf Club playing a league game. Cheshire is also the county of my birth but I'm a staunch Lancastrian now. Anyways CEX the second hand shop, will buy my 3090 for £2,100 cash so £600 above what I paid. Crazy crazy times.

    I bought a new 3440x1440p monitor and it works well with my 3090. Not sure about 4K with Windows scaling issues so happy at this resolution. Where are O/C's selling these cards now can't see them in PC components? Not selling this card it's great. Max everything including RT what's not to like.

    What did OCUK charge today for 3090's I missed it. I bought my KFA2 3090 SG in December for £1549 and couldn't be happier. Absolute bargain compared to today.

    The Radeon RX 6900/6950 XT Owners Thread.

    Wow I bought a KFA2 3090 in December for £1,549. We are absolutely living in interesting times!! I'm not interested in buying one but where are they posted these days?

    The Radeon RX 6900/6950 XT Owners Thread.

    You're not currently CPU bound. The difference between a 3900X and 5900X is meh at best at anything over 1080p. I see you have a 60hz monitor at 4K so your 6900XT doesn't have much room to 'stretch its legs'. Maybe SAM will give you some extra performance in some games so up to you but don't...

    If you don't mind me asking how much did you pay for the KFA2?

    *** NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3090 SERIES STOCK SITUATION - NO COMPETITOR DISCUSSION ***

    Funnily enough I have to agree. I bought a KFA SG 3090 for £1,549 and also just bought an iiyama 34" 3440x1440 Red Eagle G-Master 144hz to tax the card a bit more and it's excellent. Having fun.

    Iiyama GB3466WQSU-B1 Curve (1500R) 34” 1440 144Hz VA panel FreeSync Premium Pro

    Well mine's left the depot and it's supposed to be delivered tomorrow although it would suit me best if it was delivered on Thursday. I'm going into work tomorrow to do some stuff I can't do at home and I've warned my son he better get his rear end out of bed if the bell goes or they'll be big...

    Iiyama GB3466WQSU-B1 Curve (1500R) 34” 1440 144Hz VA panel FreeSync Premium Pro

    Just bought this monitor tonight. I asked them last night about the flickering issue and this is the reply I got. "Good morning, Thank you for your email. I can confirm that there was a firmware issue back in September-time of last year. Iiyama recalled all of the units from this particular...

    The Ampere RTX 3090 Owners Thread

    A big part of the increase is down to shipping costs from Asia to UK rising sharply by several hundred %. Dover and Felixstowe are swamped and container ships are being turned away. A lot of shipping companies won't touch UK as a destination so some compnies are just unloading in Holland...

    In a few mins you will have a chance to grab a 6800 or 3060Ti

    Still some 6800 & 6900XT's for sale showing 10+ stock. Obviously not very popular it would seem.

    Read that on another forum. He's joined the club like the rest of us who couldn't wait. Maybe that's why Nvidia didn't launch a 3080ti, what's the point if the 3090 is selling well there's more profit.
